Branding, web, film and marketing from one studio
We're a Cairns based creative agency obsessed with designing better brands. Through strategy, graphic design and marketing, we bring your brand to life.
One team handles your branding and logo design, website, video production and photography, podcast, social media and marketing strategy.
That matters more than it sounds. When the same people design the logo, build the website and shoot the video, everything looks and sounds like one business. You get a brand that holds together on a shopfront, a phone screen and a billboard on the Bruce Highway, and one number to call when something needs to change.
We work with businesses of every size, in Cairns, across Australia and around the world, and we know property best: agents, builders and developers. See our real estate and property marketing.

Marketing strategy in Cairns →Why one studio
One brand. One team. One phone number.
Most businesses end up with a designer for the logo, a developer for the website, a videographer for the ad and someone's nephew for the socials. Four people, four versions of the brand, and you in the middle trying to keep it all straight.
We do all of it here. The person who designed your logo sits next to the person building your website and the person cutting your video. So the brand on your website matches the brand in your commercial matches the brand in your feed, and when something needs changing, you make one call.
How we work →FAQ
Questions people ask a Cairns creative agency
What does a creative agency do?
A creative agency makes the things that shape how people see your business: the brand, the website, the photos and video, the social content and the plan that ties them together. We do all of that in house in Cairns, so it all looks like one business.
Is Mustard a branding agency or a marketing agency?
Both. We started with brand design and grew into everything a brand needs to work in the real world: web design, video production, photography, podcasts, social media marketing and marketing strategy.
Do you work outside Cairns?
Yes. We're based in Cairns and work with businesses across Australia and around the world. Most projects run from our studio, and we travel for workshops and shoots when it helps.
Can you do our logo, website and video together?
That's what we're best at. One team plans and makes all of it, so the brand stays consistent and you're not stuck managing three different suppliers.
How much does it cost to work with a Cairns creative agency?
It depends on the job. Every project starts with a conversation and ends with a fixed quote, so you know the price before anything starts. Each service page lists typical starting points.
