Testimonial

Laura Blagys

Marketing Manager, Play World Australia

“We were recommended Half Eaten Donut from a colleague and we’re glad we invested with them for our launch event. From strategy planning to weekly WIPs and daily emails from me, there was never a task too small for the team at HED and no question too unimportant to answer. They’re great to work with and an incredibly agile team.”’

Emma Battaglene

Marketing Manager, Art Central Hong Kong

“We worked with Half Eaten Donut for Art Central Hong Kong and we are super thrilled with the result. The team from Half Eaten Donut were responsive and available throughout the duration of the campaign. They fully understand the intense nature of the event space and offered advice and solutions to help us deliver an outstanding result. Thanks!”

David Weisz

Director. Reservoir Partners.

"We were super impressed with the results the Half Eaten Donut team were able to generate during our campaign! They were easy to deal with, knowledgeable, quick to respond and most importantly nimble in their ability to optimise the program and take advantage of real-time opportunities. Would highly recommend working with them across any of your digital projects. They smashed the targets and we are excited to work with them on our future projects!"

Kelly Paljusic

Marketing Manager, The Baby & Toddler Show

“I couldn’t be more impressed with Half Eaten Donut. The strategy they put together for our show allowed for quick, targeted wins as well as long term goals and the results they achieved in one campaign far exceeded our expectations. They allowed us to expand our digital reach and campaign activity and introduced us to new marketing channels that will be important components for future show campaigns”.

Electra Foley

Marketing Manager, Sydney Contemporary / Carriageworks.

"“It was great working with Half Eaten Donut on Sydney Contemporary. They were proactive and responsive and know the event space extremely well. They were available for any last minute requests at any time before, during and after the event. The results from the digital campaign were also extremely good and we exceeded our ticket target. Overall Sydney Contemporary was a very successful event and we couldn't of achieved the results we did without the team from Half Eaten Donut!"

Marketing Director SXSW

Their proven ability to reach diverse demographics with tailored messaging makes them the ideal partner to drive consideration and conversion for SXSW Sydney through strategic digital campaigns.”
