Carbon Creative

Today, we’re beyond excited to launch a new initiative created with our friends at Purpose Made (our fellow Certified B Corp and impact measurement experts) called Make Good Measurement.

Make Good Measurement is social impact measurement that goes beyond clicks, reach and engagement to ask the question that actually matters: did this project or campaign make a difference? We call it Campaign Impact Measurement — real evidence of change, translated into economic and social value, so you can see your impact, attract funding, and prove your ROI.

The idea began, as most good ideas do, with both of us being annoyed about the same things. Firstly, annoyed that campaigns and projects get measured in ways that don't hold up to a hard look. And secondly, being annoyed that organisations doing genuinely good work often can't prove it, not because the impact isn't real, but because nobody built a way to show it properly.

So Carbon Creative brought the storytelling, Purpose Made brought the rigour, and somewhere between the two, Make Good Measurement was born. An initiative built on the rather old-fashioned belief that if you're going to say you made a difference, you ought to be able to prove it. And if you can prove it, you ought to be able to tell that impact story well.

Honest impact measurement. Told properly. THIS is Make Good Measurement. Visit the website at makegoodmeasurement.com and drop us a line if you want to find out more.

20 years ago, an idea. Today, a team I couldn't be prouder of.

A decade ago, artist Riki Salam drew our story as a single star — growing brighter with every layer added over the years, surrounded by everyone who's helped us get here.

That star's still growing. Grateful for every person who's been part of it, whenever you joined.

Here's to the next twenty.

Ten years ago, we asked First Nations artist Riki Salam to help us tell the story of how Carbon Creative came to be. At the centre of that artwork is a single star, growing brighter with every layer added over the years.

On Sunday 13 September Carbon’s Senior Designer, Dean, will be taking part in the Walk for WAGEC in Sydney to support the Women’s and Girls’ Emergency Centre. ​Every dollar raised helps provide safe accommodation, essentials, healing and recovery support for women and children escaping domestic violence.

If you’re able (and want to) throw a couple of bucks in for a really important cause, feel free to support Dean’s walk by heading to the link below. Let’s all help end violence against women and children.

This September, I’m taking part in the Walk for WAGEC for women and children impacted by domestic violence and homelessness - and I'd love your support. Domestic violence is a national crisis, but together, we can change it. Please make a donation and sponsor my walk today. Your support will ensur...

Our founder Wayne grew up in the bush with a library card and big dreams. Turns out that's exactly where Carbon Creative started. 📖

Huge thanks to QUT Education for featuring Wayne's story for Book Week and shouting out the Premier's Reading Challenge — proof that a book in a kid's hands today can be a storyteller, leader or changemaker tomorrow.

"Reading gave me the sense there was a big world out there to go and find." — Wayne Denning

As Book Week closes (pun intended), we’re celebrating the joy of reading and the people who help foster it every day.

A huge thank you to the teachers, parents and carers who encourage young readers to explore new worlds through books.

As our alumnus and founder of Carbon Creative, Wayne Denning reflects:

“As an Aboriginal kid growing up in the bush, I had a strong sense of place. Reading gave me the sense there was a big world out there to go and find.”

Today, Wayne helps tell stories that drive meaningful change, a reminder of where a love of reading can lead.

That’s why we’re proud to support the Premier’s Reading Challenge, which last year saw more than 216,000 children and students register and read nearly 2 million books. Every book read has the potential to spark curiosity, build confidence and inspire the next generation of storytellers, leaders and changemakers.

Happy birthday to us! This week we've been celebrating 20 years of making good here at Carbon Creative. Looking back on everything we've done makes us happy, proud and (dare we say it) a little bit emotional. The work we do isn't always easy, but for all the blood, sweat and tears there's also been plenty of laughs, smiles and cheers. Thank you to everyone who's been on the journey with us so far, and here's to the decades to come. As the song says 'happy 2000 and whatever!"
