Creative that Converts: How Design impacts Growth Marketing

\
May 1, 2025

Design isn’t just about looking good,
It’s about getting results

For marketers focused on growth, design isn’t just “nice to have” — it’s mission-critical.

At DBD, we work with growth marketers, digital marketing teams, and brand managers who need creative that doesn’t just look great — it performs. Whether it's a landing page, a digital campaign, or a full brand rollout, every element needs to support engagement, conversion, and ROI. And when done right, great design is a growth engine.

What is Growth-Focused Creative?

Growth design is where creative and strategy meet. It’s not just about visuals — it’s about using branding, messaging, and layout to influence behavior.

Growth-focused design should:

  • Guide the user journey with clarity and intent
  • Support seamless UX across digital platforms
  • Use consistent visual language to build trust
  • Reinforce your brand while driving key actions (clicks, sign-ups, sales)

And most importantly — it should convert.

Where we fit in

We’re a small, independent creative studio based in Sydney and Adelaide, working with clients across Australia — from startups and marketing teams to established brands ready to scale.

At DBD, we specialise in:

  • Website and digital design that supports your funnel
  • High-converting campaign landing pages and ad creatives
  • Brand systems that translate across touchpoints
  • Packaging and collateral that enhance product value
  • Creative that plays well with paid media, email, and social

We’re collaborative, flexible, and built to work alongside internal teams — not around them.

Who we work with

We regularly collaborate with:

  • CMOs & Heads of Marketing
  • Digital Marketing Managers
  • Growth Marketers
  • Brand Directors
  • Content & Social Teams
  • Founders and in-house creatives

Our experience spans industries like hospitality, FMCG, lifestyle, property, and sport, Dan working with brands like Nike, White Horse Coffee, Campbells, Coles, Dan Murphys, Tracks Magazine, Metcash, and Merivale. Whether you're building a funnel or rolling out a rebrand, we help ensure your creative is aligned with your goals and built for results.

What Growth Marketers really need from Design

You don’t just need a pretty homepage. You need:

  • Creative that loads fast, works hard, and looks great on every screen
  • Assets that speak to segmented audiences and hit campaign KPIs
  • Branding that builds recognition and long-term equity
  • A partner that understands the pressures of digital timelines and stakeholder feedback

We get it. And we design with those needs in mind — always.

Why companies choose DBD
  • We're approachable and agile, not layered or slow
  • We speak marketing — and know how to tie creative into funnel strategy
  • We’re just as comfortable working on a quick-turn ad set as we are building a full rebrand
  • We make your life easier, not harder

Our goal is to bring creativity and clarity to your marketing — so you can focus on scaling, not babysitting creatives.
