24.01.2022 We have a not so secret love of working with the healthcare industry. After beginning my career and university education in the dental industry. Even getting my first (big kid) marketing job for a dental implant company, before jumping ship to this creative one. It still holds a pretty soft spot in my heart. I love it when these two worlds collide. Branding for healthcare has its distinct challenges. You need that careful mix of structure, professionalism and cleanliness mixed with subtle points of difference. We had the best time working with Body Plus Health to bring this vision to life.

23.01.2022 Fresh brand guidelines & all those leafy hues we simply adore!

22.01.2022 Another beautiful brand & website is born & launched. May flew and June is going no slower. We are struggling to get our little social self together here on our own socials, but alas we are finally catching up.

20.01.2022 We are excited to share one of the many sites we have been quietly working on. Recently we got the absolute pleasure of creating a site for the incredibly talented indigenous artist Gabriella Possum. Excited to see this live in the coming weeks!

20.01.2022 This is a friendly little reminder that we will not be taking on any NEW CLIENTS from NOV 1st 2020 - FEB 2021. If you want to work with us we ask you make contact so we can get to know you and your business. We will still be working with our marketing clients and existing design clients over this period. During this time we will be busy updating our website with some fabulous templates. We will be looking at expanding our team. We will be refining and learning new skills (as... we know this is a fast moving digital world. It is important we give you the best service and skill set possible). Oh and we also will have another little BEN&BO surprise to share with you! 2020 has been our best year yet and we are blest to get time to step back and nurture our love of this creative world. Something important when your 24/7 is being a creative.. Burn out is real and passion then dies.. We are a passionate bunch and burnout is not something we want for ourselves or our team. Thank you for everyone who has touched base and booked spots for the coming months. We are beyond excited to work with you.

17.01.2022 BRAND SHOWCASE: We have loved working on this fun, vibrant, effervescent brand. It is hard not to smile when your screen has been this bright for the last week or so.

17.01.2022 For all those having one of these kind of social Saturday’s.. Here are some helpful hints when it comes to ads vs boosts. #benandbotips

13.01.2022 BRAND SHOWCASE: Higher Road She is a pretty one & oh what a joy to work on. Higher Road is all about elevating your mood, vibration, energy levels, confidence & lifestyle. Stocking carefully selected products that are special & primarely Australian hand made. Higher Road’s primary focus is to support, rural, Australian, handmade brands and products.

12.01.2022 With all that has unfolded in Victoria we have cancelled/rescheduled all our face to face appointments and Photoshoots. It's paramount to us that our clients and ourselves are safe (& we are doing all we can). Whilst we deem ourselves necessary our face to face services are really not ’essential’ and we can conduct most online. We are becoming wizards at ugg boot, messy bun Zoom/ Skype sessions and we are still here for all your visual business nitty gritty needs. Thanks to everyone for your understanding. I know how lucky we are to work in a primarily online/ remote space at this time now more than ever. Sending huge hugs to all those who this has thrown upside down again. Lx

11.01.2022 We have had the great pleasure of working with Wayne at Combined Horse Transport on designing a new VOLVO prime mover & horse trailer. It was important his branding reflected the care, passion and dedication CHT has for its clients (both horses and their owners). We used imagery of the property to help tell a story and take you on a journey. Excited to share more as it unfolds. Thank you to Wayne for trusting us with the creative vision and execution.

11.01.2022 Sunday sketching..I always hated most digital illustration. The lack of tactile authenticity. The obvious digital nature. The block colouring and the loss of brushstrokes that drew me to traditional illustration methods.. But I must say I adore scribbling with the iPad Pro and pencil & it's safe to say my Wacom tablet promptly found the bin.. I’m still getting use to this, but hey can only get better, right?

10.01.2022 Why masks are great: 1. No make up required 2. Tooth bleaching - bye, bye 3. Lip fillers - pfft what a waste! 4. Worried about that double chin covid weight- fear not, that mask has your back. ... 5. They are frankly the lowest investment of ’give a f*cks’ you can have and make a huge difference. Do your part Vic and let's #MaskUp! See more

09.01.2022 When the first few photos on your camera are these you know what's to come is going to be a pretty magical.

06.01.2022 We are honored to be interviewed by the amazing Le Blonde Fox on our BEN&BO journey. See the link to below if you want to have a read.

05.01.2022 We have been working with the lovely Sal from Gypsy & Jean for a year or so now and after a few name changes she has settled on this: Jean with Grace - isn't it a beauty! I can't wait to see her new collections - they are magic!

04.01.2022 Website tweaks: You have a website but over the years your business has evolved and it’s just no longer hitting the mark. You’re not ready for a full upgrade but simply need a designer to iron out those issues that bug you.. from fonts, navigation & mobile adaption just to name a few . We have our preferred platform (for oh so many reasons - we could talk all day and night about why it’s the bees knees) but we work with a variety of platforms to help customers achieve their goals.

04.01.2022 We are excited to share the newly updated (& mobile friendly) Combined Horse Transport website. Whilst our preferred platform is SQUARESPACE, we know not one solution fits all and for many businesses WORDPRESS & SHOPIFY platforms are the more practical solutions. This WORDPRESS site is a little website with a lot of functions. https://cht.net.au

03.01.2022 What is your vision? Do you share it with your staff & customers? Is your vision an extension of you, does it underpin all your business decisions? or are you simply not connected? Though our in depth branding packages we look at creating an accurate vision and mission statement. Why? Because good branding is more than just good design.

02.01.2022 With our team growing we have finally decided to offer a few services we get endless requests for. Contact us today to find out more!

02.01.2022 Content creation & development. Do you know for the past 10 years we have been working with business & brands on accurate, different, outside the box (heck we create the box) content creation. Brands that need a boom. Those needing too appeal to a different or new demographic. We help with product launches and brands lost in social & marketing content through both strategy/ idea generation & content creation. What do you find hardest about the social-sphere?

01.01.2022 Last night BEN&BO received 3rd place in the AUSMUMPRENEUR - B2B Service Business award. Working in a digital/online space our B2B service is paramount to what we do. We care about every single one of our clients, their vision, story & business. We get the immense privilege of helping to build this funny little thing called 'creative confidence' with our clients. We focus on not just presenting clients with creative solutions but the understanding, tools and support to take creative ownership of their brands. Thank you to everyone who trusts us daily with your projects, ideas and brands. To be recognised amongst some of the best of the best in these national awards is something truly special for our little Wandong based studio.

01.01.2022 One thing is a really big deal to us - creative confidence. I see you all rolling your eyes from here but without it we doubt every creative decision & direction we take our business in. Without it we start to copy others, all because we don’t have confidence in our own direction. We chop and change and we become lost in our brand. This is why giving you the tools to take your brand by the reins is so very important to us. We want you to thrive and post with certainty that it’s all ‘on message’. Do you struggle with creative confidence or are you a full fledged wizard?
