24.01.2022 What do Cary Grant, Hugh Grant and Richard E. Grant all have in common? Theyre all attractive Grants, of course! But not as attractive as the Small Business COVID-19 Adaption Grant Program that opens next Wednesday 1 July. You could receive up to $10,000 big ones to spend on so many great things to help boost your business.

24.01.2022 This Sunday is Mothers Day, and as we prepare to celebrate the wonderful mothers and motherly figures in our lives, we asked our team to tell us the best and worst motherly advice theyve ever received. From career advice to how to dress for an arrest, these are the nuggets of great and not-so-great wisdom passed down for us to share. You can read the post here, but you might want to keep a grain of salt up your sleeve: https://lnkd.in/gfRnpkD... #nickdidthis #mothersday2020 #motherlyadvice

24.01.2022 The title of this blog post may seem click baitey, but we promise the content actually does discuss Wrestling Possums, Eating Frogs and WFH. Thanks to Chris Savage for maybe our weirdest blog title yet. And for giving us a solid whack with the inspiration stick last week. Find out WTF were on about here:... https://lnkd.in/gGwZK5n #nickdidthis #chrissavage #guydownes #creativeagency #WFH

24.01.2022 So our very own Nick Pritchard did a thing and wrote a piece about running a business during the hot mess that is 2020. We had to share it because, well, it made us feel good and we hope it makes you feel good too. And can whoever is cutting those onions please stop? Someone pass us a tissue.

24.01.2022 Lockdown? More like rockdown. We loved working with Apia and Premier Artists to create the video series Good Times At Home. Check out Aussie rock legend Joe Camilleri jamming out in his living room. Below are our favourite did you knows about Joe. Joe was born in Malta, the third of 10 children! Joe was inducted into the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA Hall of Fame) in 2007.... Elvis Costello and John Denver are just two who have recorded cover versions of Joes work. Joe is entirely self-taught and grew up in Port Melbourne listening to rock music on the radio. His mum called him Zep and he became known as Joe Zep. #nickdidthis #apia #apiagoodtimesathome #JoeCamilleri

22.01.2022 Not gonna lie, last month was Mayhem. We've well and truly wrapped up May 2020. But before we chuck it out the window and reverse over it a couple of times to make sure it's really over, let's take a minute to reflect on the good things that happened in May here at NDT.

20.01.2022 WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT ... Now that we have your attention, you'll be relieved to know the graphic content we're referring to is something we call Nicktation. Nick-what? The art of capturing your real-time meetings, conferences or presentations into digitally hand drawn illustration with text. Or, quite literally turning a thousand words into a picture. We don't want to give too much away here, plus you'll have much more fun feasting your eyes on the virtual booklet we've created.

20.01.2022 We loved banding together with Apia and Premier Artists to create the video series Good Times At Home. Here we have the amazing Wendy Matthews giving us goose bumps from her home studio. Below are our favourite did you knows about Wendy. The Canadian-born, Australian singer had a series of top 20 hit singles and albums in the 90s. Wendy has also been a member of Models (remember I Hear Motion and Barbados?) and Absent Friends, which featured members of Models and INXS.... Wendy has recorded an album called Billie and Me, a tribute to the immortal jazz singer Billie Holiday. In 1988, Wendy recorded an album with Kate Ceberano called Youve Always Got the Blues which was the soundtrack for the ABC TV series Stringer. The album was a smash hit. #nickdidthis #apia #apiagoodtimesathome #WendyMatthews

20.01.2022 We love a good underdog story, especially when it involves the power of brands So while you were lining up to rent Groundhog Day at your local Blockbuster in the 90s, Apple was facing near bankruptcy.

15.01.2022 Day 2 of the cringy Dad jokes as we get set to celebrate Fathers Day. Feel free to use these liberally around the home or office. If you see a robbery at an Apple Store, does that make you an iWitness? #fathersday2020 #kingofdadjokes #jeffreymichael

14.01.2022 This week is NAIDOC Week, where we acknowledge and celebrate the fact that our First Nations people have occupied and cared for this continent for over 65,000 years. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were Australia’s first explorers, first navigators, first engineers, first farmers, first botanists, first scientists, first diplomats, first astronomers and first artists. This week, let’s celebrate the oldest continuing cultures on the planet - and take time to recognise that sovereignty in this country was never ceded. #alwayswasalwayswillbe #naidoc2020 #naidocweek

13.01.2022 A couple of posts ago, we introduced you to Nicktation. Its a service weve created that makes meetings engaging, memorable and overall less sucky. We created a flip book about it on our website - https://lnkd.in/e6w82KU, but theres no need to read that shiz when you can watch the video we put together here. We made sure to source the most soothing vocals in our agency for the voiceover. Can you work out who it is?... #nickdidthis #nicktation #brandagency #creativeagency #brisbaneagency #illustration #sketchnoting #graphicfacilitation

10.01.2022 As technology itself becomes edgier, has the content in advertising become safer? Can you think of an ad you saw recently that wasnt just provocative for the sake of it? A genuine, smart provocative ad you simply couldnt ignore? Is this too many questions for a Friday? Let us know ... Heres what Jeff has to say on the matter: https://lnkd.in/g67zDBg #nickdidthis #creativeagency #brisbaneagency #advertisingagency

09.01.2022 Working with Apia and Premier Artists to create the video series Good Times At Home is one for the record books. If you watch anything today, it has to be John Paul Young performing his classics, in a flanno, in his home studio. Below are our favourite did you knows about this national treasure. JPY was born in Glasgow and moved to Australia when he was 11. JPY was dragged off the Countdown stage by young women three times while performing hit Yesterdays Hero. You ma...y remember he used to wear a sailor suit back then. The 1992 movie Strictly Ballroom made JPYs Love is in the Air a hit all over again both in Australia and the UK. JPY performed to his largest audience ever at the closing ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympics. #nickdidthis #apia #apiagoodtimesathome #johnpaulyoung

09.01.2022 We love a good debate, especially when it means we get to watch our Head of Client Service and Creative Director go head to head.

06.01.2022 We had an absolute blast working with Apia and Premier Artists to create the video series Good Times At Home.

Their mum came from Tonga to Melbourne in 1959 and married a Melbourne man. The sisters were both born in Melbourne.

Vika and Linda left the Black Sorrows in 1994 to work on their own album called, surprise surprise, Vika and Linda. It was produced by the legendary Paul Kelly. Vika and Linda have toured with Billy Joel, recorded a song with Iggy Pop and sung for the King of Tonga! #nickdidthis #apia #apiagoodtimesathome

06.01.2022 WE’RE MOVING!! 2020 has thrown us another ‘Covid curveball’, with our landlord selling our current building. However, we’re seeing it as a blessing in disguise and are looking forward to new digs (more info coming soon) and more chances to redecorate with all of Nick’s ‘eclectic’ pieces! #moving #2020 #thisyearhey

05.01.2022 It was a pretty great gig working with Apia and Premier Artists to create the video series Good Times At Home. Especially when it involves Leo Sayer keeping up the good times and sending out the good vibes. Below are our fave did you knows about Leo. Leos first seven hit singles in the United Kingdom all reached the Top 10. Leo became an Australian citizen in 2009.... Leo was born Gerald Hugh Sayer but changed to Leo in the late 60s. A band mate was inspired by his big curly mop of hair which reminded him of a lions mane hence Leo. Leos 1974 Australian tour broke all box office records and he was mobbed on arrival at Sydney airport. #nickdidthis #apiagoodtimesathome #leosayer

Because people are dying to get in. #HappyFathersDay

04.01.2022 Look, we know were supposed to be "in this together", but some things you just cant agree on. Like if the tomato sauce belongs in the fridge or the pantry, or does the person sitting in the middle seat on an aeroplane get both armrests? Something our Senior Account Manager, Tim Kho, and Senior Creative, Jeff Smith, cant fully agree on is what ad agencies will look like post Rona. Will we keep the office bean bags at home permanently or will agency life resume as before?

03.01.2022 Happy No-Ekka-Ekka-Holiday! Like the show ponies and prize rams, were taking the day off. Enjoy your long weekend and may your dreams be filled with fireworks and Dagwood Dogs. #ekka2020 #longweekend

03.01.2022 Can you imagine this lockdown period without the arts? No Netflix, no books, no music. Just you and Karen from HR on Zoom (no offence Karen). The music industry in particular has had to embrace and adapt during the onslaught of cancelled gigs and postponed IRL fun. We couldnt have been keener to help when Apia and Premier Artists contacted us to develop a series of videos to take the postponed Apia Good Times Tour 2020 and reshape it into something to light up the lockdown.... Fittingly dubbed Apia Good Times At Home, the videos feature the Good Times Tour artists in their homes. Casually performing classics and chatting about what lifes been like for them in q-tine. Keep an eye on our socials as we roll with the good times over the next week. To kick off, heres a peek at what the stars have been getting up to while touring from home. #nickdidthis #apia #apiagoodtimesathome #apiagoodtimestour

02.01.2022 Nothing can beat working with Apia and Premier Artists to create the video series Good Times At Home. Deborah Conway performing three of her songs with such passion has brought back all the mems. Below are our favourite did you knows about her. 12Before she was a rock star, Deb was a model. A billboard campaign for Bluegrass jeans featured Conways nude backside and the phrase, Get yours into bluegrass. She has also been in ads for Big M flavoured milk and Crunchies. ...As a member of Do Re Mi, Deborah had a top 5 hit with a controversial song called Man Overboard. Her first solo album, String of Pearls, contained two big hits, Its Only the Beginning and Release Me. Deborah Conway was honoured with the Order of Australia in 2002 For services to music. #nickdidthis #apia #apiagoodtimesathome #deborahconway

01.01.2022 Today we were planning to do an upbeat post about Reconciliation Week, but as events have unfolded in America that no longer seemed right. The horrific footage of George Floyds death at the hands of police in the US has shocked many of us. But its not just the US who bears the pain and scars of systemic racism. 432 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders have died in Australian police custody since 1991, the year when the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody o...fficially ended. As a predominantly white workforce, many of us here at Nick Did This are asking: what can I do? If you want to help, here are some practical things you can do: Donate to the families of Indigenous people who have died in custody to cover the legal costs of their separate enquiries. https://www.gofundme.com/f/d9qkb6-justice-for-david https://www.gofundme.com/f/justice-for-yuendumu-inquiry-on- https://www.gofundme.com/f/day-family-fundraiser Get involved with a local action group or Amnesty International. Educate yourself and your loved ones about our ugly history of racism and oppression. An easy start is to follow The Healing Foundation https://healingfoundation.org.au/, read Bruce Pascoes Dark Emu and watch First Australians on SBS. Through education comes understanding. Together we CAN make a difference. Indigenous Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter.

01.01.2022 Everyone at NDT wishes you a bootiful Halloween! Eat, drink and be scary - and have a fangtastic night! #halloween #boo
