Let’s chat about your project
The Creative Collective is a regionally based full service marketing agency, serving a wide range of clients nationally
Founded in 2007, our clients reap the rewards of engaging our talented team for strategy, branding, design, print, public relations, marketing, SEO, Google Ads, videography, photography, website development, training and more. Some clients even outsource their marketing department to us, in response to the extreme talent shortages being experienced in the industry.
With teams based in Newcastle, NSW & Sunshine Coast, QLD we work nationwide with small, medium and large companies, Government organisations, Councils and some well-known retail & eCommerce brands and have particular expertise in the tourism & travel sector, the Not for Profit sector, the medical & health sector & the real estate & industrial sectors.
In terms of training, we have developed and delivered digital up-skilling programs for Councils and other regional bodies, webinars, keynote presentations, seminars, facilitated workshops, and more to individuals, companies and organisations of all sizes. We offer training online and in person, for individuals, small groups and as keynotes for conferences.
Our sister company awardshub.com provides assistance in identifying and entering business awards.
Whatever stage of the learning or marketing journey you are at, we can help propel you forward.

Work with Us!
We are always keen to hear from kind, genuine and driven people who are passionate about what they do, and who have a commitment to continue delivering quality work, whilst evolving their skills.
A Little History…
Started from the study nook of her home in Maroochydore, Sunshine Coast in 2007 by Yvette Adams, Kat Lees joined the company during its first year of operation, and later became a shareholder and business partner of Yvette in 2014.
In 2017 we acquired another agency, Fig Creative.
In 2022 we merged our sister company The Training Collective into a newly formed entity The Creative Collective Holdings.
In 2023, we purchased our second commercial building, this one in Newcastle, and now proudly own both buildings we operate from in our respective locations.

Port Stephens Tourism
On behalf of the PGSR Team I would like to thank the TCC team for all the marketing wizardry you guys have coerced, recommended, and created providing the PGSR business with exposure we would have struggled to achieve without the TCC team. Thank you.

Yvette blew me away with her practical knowledge of Linkedin and how to use it for best business outcomes. It was phenomenal value.

Yvette is a brilliant trainer who makes you feel comfortable and who you can relate easily too on many levels. Her knowledge is practical and you get a strong sense she practices what she preaches and it works for her so it will definitely be of benefit.
Strong sense she practices what she preaches
Yvette was an amazing facilitator and leader, she followed the lead from the class and adapted everything on the spot. Her style was perfect, relaxed and intuitive. Thanks for a great day!
Style was perfect, relaxed and intuitive
There’s a lot of information out there about how to use social media. Doing the workshop with the creative collective not only distilled everything into a 1-day course but it was the additional knowledge of Yvette’s experience that you can’t get out of a text book that were the real take home gems.
Real take home gems
I thoroughly enjoyed the positive energy and fun Yvette brought to the course. She is fantastic and I have learnt much more than I expected throughout the day! Thankyou so much The Creative Collective Team 🙂
Thoroughly enjoyed the positive energy and fun
Excellent session that opened the doors to senior management being able to network and market the business. Yvette’s knowledge and presentation style ensured everyone was engaged and keen to go back to their profile to see how they could improve it.
Knowledge and presentation style ensured everyone was engaged
The Social Media Strategy course led by Yvette was so informative, not only did I learn the fundamentals of building a business online, I also left with a completed strategy and the steps I need to achieve my business goals.
I left with a completed strategy
As not an experienced Facebook user I felt the training session was very relevant, stayed on task, moved at a great pace and was very informative. Yvette was a passionate and inspirational trainer and I would love to book into more training sessions.
Passionate and inspirational trainer
Some of the tips and tricks alone are worth the price of admission and the level of enthusiasm, knowledge and experience that Yvette brings to the training is priceless.
The level of enthusiasm, knowledge and experience is peerless
I was blown away by Yvette’s credentials. Totally not expecting to hear her amazing success story and it left me feeling inspired and empowered. Having a trainer who lives and breathes (and has created) the success they are training in, makes the experience more powerful and the content more believable.
Blown away by Yvette’s credentials
I have never sat through such a worthwhile training session in my entire career. There was so much new content that I hadn’t known about and the excitement created by Yvette to get in and get LinkedIn working for me was FANTASTIC!
Never sat through such a worthwhile training session in my entire career
Yvette knows her subject well and can back it up with real-life examples and scenarios. Her no-nonsense approach ensures clients stay focused and derive maximum value from their session. This training was invaluable in alerting senior decision-makers to social risks and opportunities for our organisation. The Leadership Team better appreciates that we need to incorporate a considered and targetted social media strategy into our marketing mix.
Knows her subject well
Yvette went above and beyond in her preparation for our training and delivered an excellent course. We have some real gems of information and actions to take away.
Above and beyond

Their friendly team are always willing to assist, are quick to respond if needed and always have great new ideas on how we can drive results. Our monthly meetings are a great way for us to discuss our website visibility growth and are always informative, helping to set the agenda for the month moving forward. We hope to continue our working relationship and to continue increasing our organic search positions.”

Thank you for all this information and all your work for us over the last 12 months. We have had fantastic results from both SEO & Google advertising. Our website sales have increased 10 fold. We have been introduced to many new fantastic clients via Google, many that have spent considerable amounts of money with us. The website support has been fantastic and our website looks amazing and functions well. Thank you

“What a journey, and what a sensational result! Have spent some time this evening navigating through the back end of the site, making updates, additions and edits – very happy with the usability post handover. Congratulations on your creation and the teamwork that has brought about this better than expected result for our new brand and website.”
Cherbourg Council – Website
We have been working with Allan from the Creative Collective for around 3 years now and have never had a moments doubt that we are with the right team for us. Quick to respond to support emails and come back with a time table to sort the issue if it cannot be resolved immediately. We are very happy with the consistent uptime and response time of our website. We highly recommend Creative Collective.
Sandra Petty – Yumba Bimbi
I just wanted to say that today was one of the best 4 hours of strategy I have ever spent and so excited and reinvigorated about our digital strategy moving forward. A lot of companies online say they offer ‘strategy support’ but this exceeded my expectations. Please pass on my thanks to Yvette also, she was great. A few of my colleagues are also looking at social strategy right now so I will pass on your details, as I was raving about the session and they are now keen to do their own. Thanks again, and excited for the next steps.
