The Bluewire Story

STARTING FROM SCRATCH, ADAM FRANKLIN AND TOBY JENKINS HAVE TURNED BLUEWIRE MEDIA INTO A MULTI-AWARD WINNING, INDUSTRY LEADING AGENCY. FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN IMPLEMENT THEIR TECHNIQUES IN YOUR BUSINESS.

 

When Adam Franklin & Toby Jenkins returned from overseas in 2005, they knew they wanted to start a business. However, they faced a few minor challenges – no money, no experience & no idea! Nevertheless, they decided to start Bluewire Media, the Brisbane web design company, despite not knowing how to design a website and never having been in business before!

Since then, they’ve built a leading digital agency employing over 10 staff and servicing over 300 clients. They’ve been profiled on TV, radio and in the paper and both actively speak, write, blog and tweet in the digital and business community.

In 2009, both Adam and Toby were recognised in Australia’s Hot 30 Under 30 list of young entrepreneurs. They are very passionate about business and their BHAG, or big hairy audacious goal for Bluewire Media is to be the Google of web design! On their journey, Adam and Toby have learnt a tremendous amount from the advice of mentors, colleagues and peers & of course trial and error! They love to discuss their experiences with others and are always up for learning more. You'll learn:

  • how to get started with ‘no experience’ and ‘no track record’
  • how to market your business for next to nothing!
  • the single most important you need when starting your business
  • how to stay motivated in the early days
  • how to recruit & keep quality people

Adam and Toby can present together or individually.
