+61 is a bespoke partnership bringing together independent creative studio Bear Meets Eagle On Fire, TBWA, and Telstra鈥檚 existing media agency OMD

After completing a thorough review, Telstra has announced a shake up to its brand and marketing agency roster, with the appointment of 鈥+61鈥, a new creative partnership formed to lead its brand. 

+61 is a bespoke partnership bringing together the world class thinking and creativity of independent creative studio Bear Meets Eagle On Fire, powered by the full integrated capability of TBWA and Telstra鈥檚 existing media agency OMD. +61 will form a seamlessly integrated way of working on the Telstra business. 

Telstra is moving away from a traditional agency roster with specialist agencies that focus on brand, customer communications and retail scopes; as a result it will no longer be working with The Monkeys, CHEP, and DDB. 

Telstra鈥檚 chief marketing officer Brent Smart, said, 鈥淔irstly, I would like to thank The Monkeys, CHEP and DDB for many years of partnership and the contribution they have made to Telstra鈥檚 business.鈥 

鈥淲e are excited to build something new in the Australian market with +61. This partnership will give us the best of both worlds 鈥 an independent creative agency powered by a network agency; the creative vision of the team at Bear Meets Eagle On Fire combined with the strategic and integrated capabilities of TBWA. It will allow us to achieve a new level of creative and media integration, with our exceptional media partner OMD the third and equal partner in the model鈥. 

鈥淭his is not just another standalone one-client agency built to deliver efficiencies. We have big creative ambitions and this is about the best talent and thinking from three agencies at the top of their game, collaborating on our business as one team with one commercial arrangement. 

Micah Walker, founder Bear Meets Eagle On Fire, said, 鈥淧artnering with Brent, TBWA and OMD on such an iconic brand - and putting creativity and thinking at the very heart of something custom-designed, was an opportunity we couldn't say no to. It's a huge honour for all of us at Bear to be considered for such an ambitious assignment. We can't wait to get into it.鈥 

Paul Bradbury, CEO TBWA Australia and New Zealand, said, "Brent and the Telstra team鈥檚 creative ambition and genuine desire to do things differently make this a very special opportunity for us all. Our partnership with one of the world鈥檚 most exciting creative independents, Bear Meets Eagle on Fire, and Australia鈥檚 best media agency and Omnicom family member, OMD, we believe is a force multiplier. And like Micah, we can鈥檛 wait to get started鈥. 

Peter Horgan, CEO Australia and New Zealand, Omnicom Media Group, added, 鈥淥MD has been a long-term partner to Telstra and we feel privileged to be part of a future facing alliance to support through the exciting challenges ahead.鈥 

Telstra and +61 will commence work together from December 2023.
