The Cobber Challenge proposed by Currie met the brief perfectly and exceeded our expectations in the media it generated.

After researching and reviewing a number of companies we found Gabrielle and her team at Currie Communications. The team at Currie provided us with a professional, enthusiastic and extremely efficient process for the development of our industry training videos. The training videos provide the Australian red meat industry with an extremely valuable resource. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Currie Communications for their services. Overall, it was a pleasure working with Gabrielle, Laura and Paul during the development and we look forward to our ongoing association into the future.
