Hands Across Canberra
It was great to see so much of Canberra get behind the Hands Across Canberra Annual Charity Lunch in October. It truly takes a village to support more than 350 charities!

Fires Formation
To meet big challenges, you need big, original ideas like this Fires Formation video.
This video communicates some of the changes across Australian Army over the next decade – from capability acquisition to workforce generation.
In producing this, we applied the age-old technique of engaging storytelling coupled with cutting-edge, high-end animation to dispel misinformation, generate interest from Defence and defence industry, and better inform Army’s people on workforce changes.
This is the result of some amazing collaboration with Ben Shepherd, Paul Wright, CSC and Sisto Berrnado and the excellent work from our team: Amanda Smith, Belle Thompson, David Lawson, Scott Deakin, Ian Reiser, and David Jordan. A special thanks also to the talented Benny Gray.
Our approach was a first of its kind for the Australian Army and was so successful it was showcased at the 2022 Chief of Army Symposium.
There can be no cut-through #communications without #creativity fused with coordinated #execution.
13th Brigade Enhancement Video
We're very proud of our video production team 🙌
Working with 13th Brigade in rural Western Australia, our production crew filmed at multiple locations across four days.
The end result is amazing and showcases 13th Brigade's transformation to a hybrid brigade.
A big thanks to 13th Brigade and 10th Light Horse Association for involving us, and for your patience, willingness and engagement throughout the process.

Effective Communications
What are effective communications?
My answer to you is have a recipe per month, a formula that you keep rolling with. That might be an email every week out to your customers and clients. It might be three social media posts per week that roll out over the month, and it might be a blog update.
The absolute big thing is test, test, test.
If it’s not working, change it. If it is working, do more of it.
Know your objectives.
If you’re trying to increase your sales, or if you’re trying to increase customer service, be really specific about your personas – these are the humans you’re targeting. Know very specifically who you’re trying to hit.
Test up your channels, try different content and just keep testing. This is the holy grail of marketing. Get your recipe right, keep rolling it and you will win at the game.

The question I get asked the most is, absolutely, what do you actually do? At RD Consulting, we do communications. What that actually looks like, step one, is that we’ll come and meet with all your key people. We’ll ask them all the tough questions. Number two is we’ll look at your assets, artefacts, all the information you’ve got, to take a really clean snapshot of exactly where you’re at, at the moment. Number three is we’ll prepare a communication strategy. And that looks at your objectives, your personas, your channels, your messaging, how are we going to measure it? Step four is we’ll prepare an implementation plan and that specifies exactly how we’ll bring it to life – what we do and when. Step five is my absolute favourite – we actually deliver it for you. Whether it’s videos, websites, social media, whatever it may be, we make it happen. And we absolutely love it! We work with you. We work in your team. We become a part of your team and we partner with you to bring it to life.

Col on Mix106.3
Recently, RD’s Colin Anstie joined Kristen and Nige’s Mix106.3 Breakfast Show to talk about a very cleverly disguised, $90K email scam that almost got us. Lucky for us, our attentive Teaghan George was able to decipher fact from fiction.
We share this as a warning to businesses to watch out for this sort of thing. Those into malicious intent on the internet are becoming ever more cunning and sophisticated.
And a big thank you to Kristen and Nige at @mixcanberra for the invitation to the show. Keep sharing the good vibes!
Take a listen.

Telstra Best of Business Awards 2022
Madeline Bonfini and Claudia Cannon spent three memorable days at the 2022 Telstra Best of Business National event this week.
While RD Consulting may not have been selected as the National winner, we are still honoured to be selected as the ACT State Winner in the category of ‘Accelerating Women’.
This embodies our purpose to ‘Believe In Better’. At RD Consulting we believe that significant change begins with individual, day-to-day actions, and we work towards raising the bar for women in the communications field every day. Whether that be through seeking out talented women or ensuring our female staff, at all levels, are supported, our workplace culture contributes towards the equality of women.
We would like to thank Telstra for this incredible opportunity. Congratulations to She's A Crowd and all the national winners on a very well-deserved win.
