business case study

Delivering the exceptional.

   It’s our belief that ambitious brands need flexible creative partners to excel. Our model is simple: disruptive advertising powered by deep expertise.
‍
   In practice, that means helping brands become creators, not just advertisers - and using their unique data and economics to better inform our advertising decisions.

   We believe the best way to create lasting, impactful results is with smaller, more experienced teams who truly love what they do.

"We’ve been working with the team at yikes for years and continue to be impressed. Steele and Joel have brought sharp thinking, clear direction, and a strong creative perspective to the table. Communication has been easy and collaborative - we’re looking forward to what’s ahead."

We’ve been with yikes since the start of our journey. Steele, Joel and the team have completely transformed our brand. We've averaged consistent 10 ROAS months for over a year now. They know exactly when to leverage our industry expertise to combine creative strategy & development for us. We’ve grown from 2 founders to a team of passionate guides, holding market share in the Snowy Mountains for our trips.

We’ve worked with countless agencies over the years, and yikes is honestly in a league of its own. Joel and Steele are just plain and simply different. They genuinely understand what it takes to grow a brand. They’ve helped us with everything from running ads and refining our brand strategy to organising content shoots.
