Grant Day James

Well another year has passed us by and last year’s lessons are tucked neatly away in our pockets to help us dress for 2012 - whatever the weather.

Here at GDJ, 2011 was an absolute blast - our clients, once again proving to be the savviest, loveliest and most attractive people around. Okay, fine … that might have been a bit biased but you get the gist. We feel incredibly privileged to continue to work with such an eclectic and interesting array of clients across a broad media spectrum.

Twenty-eleven saw us work on national multimedia campaigns that spanned across television, radio and press for clients including Mazda and the Australian International Motor Show as well as in the digital realm for clients including Zoos Victoria, Hamish and Andy and the Cape Otway Centre for Conservation Ecology.

We are lucky enough to be able to work on other projects like recruitment advertising, point of sale collateral, logos and brand development and a whole lot more … which, if you’re reading this, you probably already knew.

With too many other wonderful clients and projects to mention here, let me finish off by giving a big Grant Day James hug to our clients, suppliers, friends, families and pets for a wonderful 2011 and here’s to 2012 - whatever she may bring.

It's back! We're just a few sleeps away from the Mazda one day, once a year sale - M Day. More than a handful of staff remember the first M Day we ever did over a decade ago (yikes!). Over the years, as the strength of M Day has continued to … Read full story→

Sorry. Following: "So we at GDJ have been thinking about the insertion of something other than an apostrophe to indicate a possessive." Should read: "So we at GDJ have been thinking about the insertion of something other than an apostrophe to indicate a PLURAL."

Someone once told me that I know very little about grammar because I was educated in the 70s (note the lack of apostrophe), when the education system decided that churning out highbrow grammar weirdos wasn't the way forward. But even little old me, with limited knowledge of Split Infinitives and … Read full story→

After months of preparation and anticipation, the 2011 Australian International Motor Show is up and running at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre until Sunday 10th July. With 45 new car reveals, it's already shaping up to be one of the best motor shows Melbourne has seen in years. You don't … Read full story→

Whether you're planning a sneaky getaway, lunch with family or simply to ignore the healthy eating guidelines for chocolate consumption, from all of us at Grant Day James we wish you a safe and happy Easter.

Last year, we were thrilled to welcome yet another fabulous client to Grant Day James, the Australian International Motor Show (AIMS). The 2010 Motor Show, held in Sydney, showcased some truly spectacular vehicles with everything from lean, green, zero emissions machines right through to the high-powered, performance-focused super cars. There was … Read full story→

A handful of us from Grant Day James were lucky enough to go along to a recent Zoo Twilights evening featuring 'Achtung Baby - The U2 Show' at Melbourne Zoo. A perfect 26 degrees, one incredible sunset and the sound of birds roosting … Read full story→
