BULLFROG

Seems we have made a few people around the globe this week have long #showerthoughts with Oxfam Australia's - ONLY SHAMPOO. Thanks for the recognition; it means a lot to all of us Frogs. LBBonline - Little Black Book Toby Hemming Brittney Rigby Casey Martin

Remember this: Life’s journey is not traveled alone. The work we do, the battles we fight, the mountains we climb – all of these are shared experiences. It is not just the destination that matters, but for me, the most important part is companions we share our path with. Yesterday, the BULLFROG team sat down for our monthly team lunch and acknowledged the many great mountains we’ve climbed within it. School holiday juggles, tadpoles in the office, a new baby tadpole on the way, B&T Agency of The Year judging, 120 Youngbloods crew at HQ, a powerful product launch for Oxfam Australia, new Frogs and multiple team birthdays 🎉. Grateful, to be travelling this BULLFROG climb with some best people and partners. Special mention for this incredible spread to our sourdough master, Alex and condiment queen, Edwina.

Before yesterday, the shower was your last bastion of uninterrupted thought... Now, we’ve untapped it as a vitally important media space in our latest work for Oxfam Australia. ONLY SHAMPOO asks Aussies, mid-lather, why does our hair get to ‘eat’ when so many people can’t? Launched on National Hair Day via OOH, radio, online, and into the minds of the great online philosophers of our time on r/showerthoughts. Because our hair isn’t hungry. People are. Take action now: https://lnkd.in/gfR877pJ Big thanks to our good mates at People Haircare, Praytell, Southern Cross Austereo, Reddit, Inc., Bone Digital, Gusto Studios, Adrian Lander and everyone else who gave their time, hair and brains to this campaign.

Nothing like a hefty bunch of B&T finalists to usher in the weekend 🥳 Bravo to our brilliant BULLFROG team who are the reason we’ve been shortlisted as Independent Agency of the Year and Victorian Agency of the Year for the third year running. And of course, our wonderful partners who make the work so worthwhile: Dineamic who scored a siren audio nomination for “Made Honest” radio, and the incredible team at Epijont with a TV nomination for “Blacksmithery”. Slow 👏 all round.

At Bullfrog, we are taking part in Support Talk. An Australian first online training program that teaches mentors important steps to respond to disclosures of gender-based discrimination and violence. We want to be able to support each other should we ever need to. Created by the incredible teams at The Aunties and Women's Health Victoria. It’s available to anyone who mentors in the industry for the next three months. Take it here: https://lnkd.in/gwHQ2vB3 #supporttalk 

If you zoom in 763% you’ll spot our very own Daniel Sparkes sharing his ideation hints and hacks with the 2024 D&AD Shifters. We can only imagine based on his expressive hand gestures and many smiling faces that his legendary wisdom and inspiration was a hit.    D&AD Shift is an award-winning free night school for self-made creatives without a university degree. Find out more: https://lnkd.in/dxhFQPXQ

Shiny awards have their place, but we’re so much prouder of the incredible mums behind these accomplishments. These photos of our always inspiring Senior Creative and wordsmith extraordinaire Lauren Eddy with her beautiful baby June, and the glue that keeps our business running, Edwina Gilbert with her sons Gus and Josh are going straight to the pool room. Thank you Lauren, Dweens and the The Aunties for shining a light where it deserves to be pointed. Parenting is a full-time job even when you have another job to do, and we are so grateful to benefit from what time, energy and brainpower all the wonderful mums at Bullfrog are able to give, in whatever capacity they are able to give it.

Meet Josh and Gus, our sporty Spikes! Sons to Edwina Gilbert, Office Manager and EA to the CEO, Dalton Henshaw at BULLFROG. These two trophies really make a point: that taking time out to raise a family still means you can return and have a fulfilling career. “Having been in the industry since the early 1990s, I have to say I am in awe of how far our industry has come to better supporting mothers. And now fathers too. That was unheard of back when I began!” Edwina speaks further to her experience here: https://lnkd.in/gDgMq7yE We’re in awe of you Dweens. 🫶 📸 by Heather Dinas
