We work closely with a select number of clients at a time. High-touch, deeply invested, and in it for the long term.

OUR APPROACH PILLARS

Senior-led, always

The people running your account are the people you'll talk to. No handoffs to juniors. No account management layers.

Complete, not fragmented

PR, content, social media, design, events and production all under one roof, working together, not in silos.

Invested for the long term

Brand value is built over years. We stay close, stay engaged, continually evolve and know your business as well as you do.

OUR VALUES

As a collective, we seek to improve ourselves, the work we do, and the impact we have on those around us. We promote curiosity, respect, and collaboration, and provide our team with the opportunity to develop a broader external outlook and a deeper understanding of the world around THEM. 

We’re committed to socially responsible initiatives and continually seek to improve all aspects of our business.

We Protect

Max&You plants a tree for every press placement achieved by our agency. Through our monthly donations, we have helped restore forested areas, strengthening habitats and ecosystems on which many species of flora and fauna depend. Furthermore, this initiative contributes to the reduction of CO2 in our atmosphere while also empowering One Tree Planted in their endeavour to educate the world on how we, as individuals and organisations, can have a positive effect on the environment.

We Support

Max&You have a long history of supporting cultural and grassroots design and creative initiatives by providing pro bono representation, consultancy and mentoring.

We Acknowledge

Max&You respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land throughout Australia where we live, work and learn, and pays respect to the First Nations Peoples and their elders, past, present and future. We recognise that Australia has always been and will always be Aboriginal Land, and to honour this sovereignty, we have committed to Pay The Rent, a practical initiative that directly benefits Indigenous people and communities.
