About us

Her name is ‘Daisy’ – the Old English Sheepdog that has been our mascot since day one. And Daisy dog is as relevant now as she was when we launched ten years ago.

Daisy represents an enduring philosophy that sets Grant Day James apart. We’re not like your average big-end-of-town ad agency. Our clients love the lack of pretension and the down-to-earth attitude. They enjoy our responsiveness and our loyalty. They value our creative abilities and broad range of skills. They appreciate our cost effectiveness. We think you will too.

Quality design and media solutions

High quality creativity and clever media solutions don’t take forever to conceive. Or at least they don’t at GDJ. Maybe that’s because we’re a tight knit team of around twenty people that thrives on the hustle and bustle of advertising. Big enough to handle anything you throw at us. Small enough to respond quickly. Great service, outstanding media skills, speedy turnaround times, deep production knowledge, many eyes for detail, relevant and clever ideas, lively copy, great design. These are the components that underpin our work. All our work is conceived, designed, written and created in-house. Always has been. Always will be.

“The world’s tallest dog was 8 feet 3 inches long. It wasn’t a sheepdog though. Sheepdogs are known for their clever ad making abilities not their size.”
