FOR BRANDS AND DESTINATIONS THAT EARN THEIR PLACE.
FOUNDED IN 2017

JOURNAL

We make things matter
the world’s most-talked aboutbrands, destinations and experiences

We are not a PR agency. We are not a creative agency. We sit upstream of both at the point - where a brand or destination needs to work out what it actually is before it decides what it wants to say.

Our work spans brand strategy and positioning, PR and communications, experiential and placemaking, social and content, influencer and talent, and earned creative.

Everything runs from a single strategic thread, not handed between separate teams.

We work with luxury hotels and hotel groups, premium drinks brands, lifestyle brands, property developers and destinations.

Our clients are across Australia, the Pacific, the Middle East and GCC, and Asia.

We operate from two offices because the markets demand it. Sydney gives us depth in Australian hospitality and drinks culture. Dubai gives us proximity to the fastest-moving destination market in the world.

Small by design. Invested at every level. Focused on the work.

  • 500+ projects in Australia, Asia, The Middle East & The Pacific
  • 100+ venues launched
  • 50+ placemaking and design projects
  • 20+ years of industry-leading expertise
  • 15+ awards won

What we do

Proudly behind the most renowned luxury and lifestyle brands and places

We Create

Brand moments that earn attention.

People don't notice a brand because it showed up. They notice it because it gave them a genuine reason to. From identity to campaigns, we build the creative work that earns its way into culture, not by spending more, but by saying something worth hearing.

We Design

Places people seek out before they know why

The spaces that last aren't the ones with the biggest budget. They're the ones where the brand thinking shows up in the architecture, the dining, the feel of arriving. We design places from the inside out.

We Shape

The culture that makes a place worth belonging to.

A destination doesn't earn a reputation from its amenities. It earns it from the moments, the people, and the meaning it creates. We shape the cultural layer that makes a place feel alive, the programming, the community, the reason people come back.

We Amplify

The stories and moments that make brands worth talking about

The best brand amplification isn't paid for. It's earned, through the right story in the right publication, the right voice in the right room, the right experience at the right moment. We build the earned presence that makes a brand genuinely influential.

Our work speaks for itself
Andy El-Bayeh & Rebecca Jarvie-Gibbs

Meet the founders you'll actually work with

Andy El-Bayeh

Co-Founder

Andy has spent two decades at the intersection of brand, hospitality, and the kind of thinking that makes places and businesses matter to people. He built much of his career at the centre of some of Australia's most significant hospitality groups before founding Example in 2017. Today he leads the agency's strategic and creative direction across both its Australian and UAE practices.

Rebecca Jarvie-Gibbs

Co-Founder

Rebecca has spent close to two decades shaping how some of Australia's most influential hospitality and lifestyle brands speak - and how they're spoken about. Today she leads Example's team, client relationships and earned media. As much as she has shaped the work, she has shaped what it feels like to do it - an agency culture defined by high standards and genuine joy in the making.
