Banter Group

We love nothing more than supporting small businesses 🫶 especially ones that do good for mental health. @sofarsogood_co is the creation of our incredible graphic designer Rach and her best mate Kate. Together they have built a brand that has quality and sustainability at the core of everything they do. 🌿 Their clothing ranges are printed to order using eco-friendly ink, reducing waste and environmental impact. Their hoodies are even crafted from recycled plastic bottles. As Rach would say ‘We’ve survived 100% of our bad days’. They are committed to raising awareness of the importance of mental health with 5% of each purchase goes to various Australian charities dedicated to helping the youth of Australia on their mental health journeys. We are encouraging everyone to go and check out their range you might just find your favourite new piece of clothing, because when you choose So Far So Good, you’re not just choosing sustainable clothing – you’re joining them in making a positive impact on mental health and the environment. 👉 @sofarsogood_co #bantergroup #banter #dogood #supportlocalbusiness #lovelocal #sustainablefashion #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #makeadifference #smallbusinesslove #recycling #recycle #recycledplastic #sustainability #sustainable #sustainableclothing #ecofriendly #ecofashion #youth #mindfulness #australianowned #digitalmarketing #marketingagency #regionalmarketingagency

Banter boast! In our partnership with #Laava, the Banter team gets to flex all our digital marketing muscles 💪 from brand and strategy through to social media and sponsored content for campaigns. To support this long-term client at an international conference, we created this remarkable animated video to play on loop in the background of their exhibition space. We designed the video to showcase Laava's brand and offering to leaders in the #brandprotection industry - to inspire C-suite executives toward connection and conversation 💬 But we also wanted our client to get excellent bang for their buck - a valuable asset they could embed and repurpose to help customers at all stages of the sales funnel. It needed to be visually striking as well as professional and approachable. The project called on our expertise in copywriting, storyboarding, content creation, graphic design, animation and more. And the team loved it ❤️ Check out the video 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwiIH1MjccQ Looking to bring your brand to life with custom animation that tells your brand story?

Banter brag! 🤗 The team at @trowjones came to us with a web developer on board already, and wanted us to do some work for the design of the website, instead of the actual web build. Sign us up! What we did: provided secondary colours & fonts for their established brand, amended sections of the web template, and developed the look and feel of the site. We made a series of mockups in photoshop of the proposed final website, and created a detailed inspiration moodboard to hand over. We also provided a shotlist and put them in touch with the photographer who ultimately did their website photos 📸 We did all of this so that Trow Jones could pass this onto their web developer to implement. We love working in this consultancy role to help people fully realise their vision. Does this sound like something we could help you with?

We love projects that are going to change the world, and this is one of them 🌍💪 Earlier this year Banter Group worked with @kinship_farms to design a gorgeous new brand. Kinship Farms is advancing Agroecology modelled farming systems 🌱 that yield nutrient-rich, chemical-free produce through an integrated (stacked) approach of Agtech and Regenerative Farming, among other holistic methods and inputs 🌾 Embracing their new look, Banter turned our attention to the design and build of a website displaying the importance of more sustainable and regenerative farming 🌿 Agroecology plays a vital role in ensuring the health and well-being of our planet. At its core, Agroecology is all about balance. It involves using techniques that minimise environmental impact, promote soil health and fertility, and conserve water and energy resources. It also prioritises the well-being of farm workers, animals, and the surrounding community for a healthier, cleaner and more connected future. This educational website is jam-packed with useful information on how to take a step towards sustainable food security for tomorrow - today. We feel privileged to work on such a fulfilling and important project. #bantergroup #banter #agroecology #regenerativefarming #sustainable #sistainabilty #websitelaunch #websitedesign #webbuild #webdevelopment #marketingagency #digitalmarketing #digitalmarketingagency

Have you heard about UGC before? 🤳 UGC (User Generated Content) is a game-changer when it comes to marketing your products or services. It's content created by customers and content creators that you can leverage to showcase your brand in an authentic and engaging way. Here's a quick guide to finding the best UGC for your brand: 1️⃣ Capture the vibe: Seek UGC that aligns with your brand's identity and values, ensuring it reflects the essence of what you stand for. 2️⃣ Keep it viewer-friendly: Look for UGC that is visually captivating and easy for your audience to watch and follow along. No one wants content that feels like an ad. 3️⃣ Shed some light: Choose UGC with clear, well-lit shots that showcase your products in their best light, making them irresistible to potential customers. 4️⃣ Sound matters: Opt for UGC with clear audio quality, so your message comes across loud and clear to your audience. 5️⃣ Add that special touch: Look for UGC with smooth transitions, engaging effects, and meaningful captions that enhance the overall experience for your viewers. By incorporating high-quality UGC into your digital marketing strategy, you'll captivate your audience and build trust in your brand. Ready to dive into the world of UGC?

We love nurturing young minds 😁 Recently, our Digital Director Nik and our Creative Director Fran had a fantastic opportunity to mentor two Year 12 students from Newington College in Sydney. Fran & Nik looked at their projects for Design & Tech, where both students had each designed an app 📱 Nik & Fran spent time reviewing the apps for their usability and design, and gave the boys feedback - the idea being that having some professional advice could lift their projects to the next level. Both ideas were great! And our Banter experts were able to pick up on some of those common design & usability issues, feed them back to the students, and offer some tangible feedback for improvement. So great to see young people dreaming big and thinking outside the box, and we’re always thrilled to be able to help where we can 👏 #bantergroup #banter #digitalmarketing #marketingagency #digitaldesign #creativedesign #appdesign #usability #designfeedback #designandtech

Ready to shake things up? 🍹 We're celebrating World Cocktail Day with a throwback to Brent's amazing animation he created for us. He started with a simple idea and brought it to life through storyboarding, sketching, and animating. The result? A visually stunning cocktail animation that perfectly captures the essence of Banter. Animation is a powerful tool! It can be used to help build your brand and create an emotional connection with your audience. Unlike generic stock videos, custom animation allows you to accurately represent your brand with authenticity and creativity. By evoking emotions that resonate with your target audience, you increase your chances of leaving a lasting impression. Whether you want to showcase your product, tell your brand's story, or simply add a touch of fun to your social media, animation can help you achieve your goals. So why settle for ordinary when we can help you create something extraordinary? Cheers to creativity and delicious cocktails! 🥂 #bantergroup #banter #worldcocktailday #throwback #animation #handdrawn #cheers #animation #branding #digitalmarketing #customanimation #brandidentity #storytelling #creativecontent #socialmedia #digitalmarketing #marketingagency
