Building a brand for the engineers who are building the future, inspiring the profession and elevating their public perception

Overview

We worked with Engineers Australia, the industry peak body, to develop and grow a brand that celebrates how engineers are building the future, growing an audience both in and outside of the industry.

Objectives

  • 1
    Improve the value perception and relevance of Engineers Australia membership
  • 2
    Establish a multi-channel content ecosystem that allows audiences to engage with content across various platforms and formats
  • 3
    Raise awareness of engineering achievements outside of the engineering community
  • 4
    Build an owned audience
  • Approach

    Our team of engineers and content marketers reimagined EA’s content strategy, developing a content brand – create – to celebrate the incredible achievements of engineers in Australia and abroad.

    The create ecosystem includes a monthly magazine, content website – create digital, an e-newsletter and paid social media strategy. create channels are commercialised by our in-house team, generating revenue for the Association and allowing advertisers to engage with the Australian engineering audience. 

    We also work with Engineers Australia to market the association’s events, services and training.
