Woweee! What a year. Ziba Creative’s first year in business has been one hell of a ride.

One year ago, I was taking a massive step into the unknown. Starting your own business, despite all the preconceived ideas you may have, is no easy feat. Before getting clients on board, I needed to surround myself with an A team who would be able to deliver my vision, and what an A team they are!

The beauty of Ziba’s business model is that I get to work with the very best creatives in their fields. From graphic designers to videographers, I collaborate with epic individuals running their own small businesses.

Teamwork forms the backbone of Ziba, and I am so grateful to have such talented creative partners to call upon to bring my ideas to life. I tip my hat to our fabulous designers Amanda Bennett and Bridget Hassall, star videographers Ben Masters, Alex Lee, Dan Franks and Nicky Felton and ballin’ photographer Nicole Troost.

Looking back, I’m so proud of what we have achieved over the past 12 months. We’ve worked on 527 projects ranging from advertising collateral, sales videos, all the way through to branding, websites, and so much more.

The beauty of owning your own business is that you get to surround yourself with the kind of people you enjoy working with every day. Ziba has a champion list of clients, and I really do cherish every opportunity we are given to help them achieve their marketing goals.

A MASSIVE thanks to our clients who have supported Ziba along the way, including; Arrowfield Stud, Armidale Stud, Ardex, Belhus Racing, Bevan Smith Bloodstock, Bryce Heys, Busuttin Racing, Carlaw Park, Duncan Ramage, Henley Park, Highden Park, Kingsclere Racing, Kingstar Farm, Kylie Bax, Lindsay Park Racing, Mapperley Stud, Mitch Beer Racing, Nigel Blackiston, Novara Park, New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing, Off N Racing, Ohukia Lodge, Paul Preusker Racing, Potted, Prima Park, Richardson Racing, Trelawney Stud and Vinery Stud.

Happy birthday Ziba! Cheers to a dream come true and to many more celebrations to come!
