You may have noticed we’ve switched from using hashtags to prioritising alt text in our social posts lately… and there’s a reason for it. 👀
Alt text isn’t just an accessibility feature - it’s now a powerful signal for content understanding, searchability, and platform intelligence. While hashtags are losing impact, alt text is rising in relevance across Meta, Instagram, LinkedIn, and even AI-driven content systems.
We’re not just predicting the future of socials - we’re adapting to it early.

Think attention spans are shrinking? Think again. 🤷♀️
People will stay when your content gives them a reason to.
In our latest post, we unpack how to create content that doesn’t just grab attention, but holds it: through strong hooks, structure, storytelling, and emotion --> https://loom.ly/cdRntVU
Alt Text: Two women sit together at a desk, framed by bold orange Creative Collective branding. The text headline reads: ‘Attention Spans Aren’t Shortening – Myth Busting The Goldfish Brain Fallacy.’ The second slide features a large white quote on an orange background explaining that the ‘eight-second attention span’ myth is really about content overload, not shrinking human focus.

The truth? AI isn’t coming for your job; it’s coming for your skills gap.
The solution isn’t panic. It’s training.
Our latest blog breaks down how to make AI learning accessible for everyone in your organisation - from your interns to your execs.
Alt text: Bright pink and team-focused carousel promoting The Creative Collective’s new blog by Katrina Lees on why organisations should prioritise AI training.

Our Story
The Creative Collective are a full service creative agency specialising in digital marketing, especially in social media. We also offer branding, graphic design & print, strategy, PR & marketing, SEO & PPC, videography & photography, website design & development, domains & hosting and much more!
Started in 2007 by Yvette Adams, today we operate from the fringes of the new Smart City in Maroochydore, Queensland, regularly servicing clients in Brisbane and the Gold Coast; and also have an office and team in Newcastle, who service Sydney. We also work with clients in many other locations across Australia online, have consultants in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Adelaide, Cairns, Melbourne and Perth; and have even had clients in locations such as Japan, Korea and Iceland.
We have experience working with a wide range of industries including finance, accounting & legal; real estate; medical & dental; beauty, health & fitness; hospitality, food & beverages; not for profits & charities; Government & Councils; multicultural and indigenous; childcare, education & training; tourism; the arts, creative & fashion; interior design & homewares; construction; technology & utilities & energy.
Our success has been driven by multiple factors. We were one of the first full service agencies to market on the Sunshine Coast back in 2007, and in 2008 were one of the first to offer social media training and services. We have capitalised on being based in regional and fast growing locations. In the time we have operated both locations have seen enormous population growth and the markets have matured, moving away from traditional industries they were previously reliant on. Increasingly so, businesses have also started to turn to digital marketing over traditional marketing, and we have been there to support them with that transition.
We have forged and maintained a unique position in the market given our close relationship with our sister company The Training Collective (100% privately owned by Yvette Adams) offering clients the choice to call on us for their services, engage in training, or both! It is heartening to know that whatever stage of the digital transformation journey they are at, and whatever their budget, we can help them progress.
Our vision for The Creative Collective is to continue to be the best digital marketing agency outside of a city in Australia, becoming the preferred partner of businesses in an increasingly digital world. Our vision for The Training Collective is to be a leading training organisation in the provision of digital skills training, giving people digital skills to succeed in a digital world.
