Goodman Fencing
Building the brand of south-east QLD startup contractors Goodman Fencing began after realising they needed more to represent them than a self-designed business card.
Mat Goodman, owner of Goodman Fencing, engaged DPS Creative as brand coach and designer. Developing a phased approach to a rebrand to fit with their budget, we were able to guide them to a better and more vibrant way to present themselves to attract customers. Their care and reputation for ensuring installation of all kinds of fencing and retaining walls look smart and true is legendary. Brand extension and marketing has to be bang-on too.
Deliverables include photoshoots of the Goodman Fencing team on the job (generating a superb media resource for their brand presence), to designing truck and toolbox signage, styling of work shirts, business cards, and more.

Dr Stephen Hughes teaches hands on physics
World renowned astrophysicist, published author, academic and educator Dr Stephen Hughes, brings easy-to-understand physics lessons to your classroom or kitchen with, “Hands on Physics Education”.
These lessons contain an abundant amount of information, experiments and resources to assist with teaching physics in the classroom. He has appeared on national TV and explained several myths of phenomena. He once digitally unwrapped an Egyptian mummy in a London hospital using a CT scanner!
Stephen’s scientific investigation of the astonishing properties of water has taken him out of the science lab and from the South Australian Riverland region to pack horse trekking in Bhutan on precipitous mountain paths for his research on preventing flooding of villages from glacial lakes using siphons. His research in this area has even triggered a rewrite of the Oxford dictionary definition of a siphon.
Stephen covers the physics of climate change, the birthplace of stars and the how and why of far-off galaxies in his Hands on Physics lessons. He calls on DPS Creative for design and layout of books and covers for his ebook and printed titles and for other unique ways to tell and retell his fascinating brand story.
