A world of opportunity

Where will the IB take you?

Once we had refreshed the global value proposition and messaging for the International Baccalaureate, we created a global campaign that used video ‘story’ ads to target students, parents, teachers and schools. Our headlines and photography delivered strong clickthrough rates and made this campaign easy to roll out across different markets and languages with outstanding results.

Independents Day

Winning political campaigns for independent candidates

We loved working with Zali Steggall and Allegra Spender to design, message and promote their independent bids for the 2022 federal election — and win! These were comprehensive campaigns, using a small but smartly-targeted budget to develop everything from overarching messaging and visuals to new websites, policy PDFs, TVCs, social videos, direct mail, print, digital signage and awareness events.

All systems go!

Talkin’ ‘bout an evolution

Thanks to two strategic acquisitions and a new AI joint venture, Telstra had everything they needed to deliver industrial automation – except the messaging and ad campaign. So Brains developed “smart industry made simple” ads, eDMs, hero videos, OOH, campaign landing page and thought leadership for a national campaign and roadshow targeting mining, supply chain, energy and construction.
The impact? Unprecedented media interest and customer leads.

The future of design sounds beautiful

Launching a new era of acoustic interiors

Building on the new messaging we created, we helped Rockfon launch a new range of completely market-changing acoustic products across the world. This campaign included a successful event launch in Europe and several high-end branding videos, all written, shot, directed and edited by us.

I’m feeling that ceiling

Dramatising the power of colour

Colourful acoustic ceilings can change our mood. Tapping into the wellness trend, we named Rockfon’s colourful new range ‘The Colours of Wellbeing’ and elevated the pitch from installers to architects, making acoustics top of mind – not an afterthought. Our inspiring social campaign, beautiful web site, look book and ceiling colour visualisation tool smashed all campaign targets.

Best in Expo

How to stand out from the crowd

Telstra wanted their first-time presence at Gartner Symposium to be noticed. We brought them attention with a creative campaign that played on Gartner’s theme of “Unleash Possibility”. Across the promo video, social ads, landing page, expo stand and speaker content, this mini integrated campaign brought their theme to life and garnered attention amid the conference clamour. Plus, we designed a rad retro t-shirt for the 80s throwback event.

The app that made a splash

How to rule the pool

Pooltrackr started as an in-house idea and turned into Australia’s number one pool and spa management software. Now a fully fledged business in its own right, Pooltrackr’s end-to-end software platform is integrated with major point of sale and accounting software and supports over a million pools. Our designers, developers, coders and creatives built the success of this industry-changing brand, which is now entering US and South African markets.

Get in the game

Locked inside? Unlock your career.

When Microsoft Australia wanted to get more people into Azure AI skills training, we came up with the idea of an online summer school as a way of making good use of lockdown. We put together a cool landing page with career-enticing messaging, then targeted gamers and IT students with videos on Twitch and social. The result? Summer school was over-subscribed and the strategy and materials were picked up by Microsoft globally.

Get SASE

We replaced ‘what?’ with ‘why’

Most organisations are stuck explaining what SASE is. We elevated Telstra’s campaign by demonstrating what Telstra’s SASE solutions actually do to help businesses achieve their goals. We supported salespeople with enablement tools and got the message out with a targeted digital campaign. To capitalise on this message, we took customers on a journey to a free, no-commitment network consultation that helped them better understand the benefits and how to seize the opportunity.

Light that feels good

How to connect feeling with lighting

It’s one thing to ‘see the light’ – quite another to understand how light makes you feel. That’s why we developed a new messaging guide for Signify, all built on the connection between lighting and wellbeing. The guide included value propositions, target audience breakdowns and copy blocks that simplified communications for Signify staff.
