What people are saying about Red Bilby. . .
It’s sincerely been an absolute pleasure working with Red Bilby. Michael and Tania have well and truly taken my web presence to the next level. They are always available, answer any of my questions and make updates promptly. I would very highly recommend Red Bilby to anyone looking for a graphic/web design company.

The essence of Michael Chanter’s creative brilliance is a clarity of feeling and lightness of touch. The Red Bilby design leaves no fingerprints and the idea of each work flows freely with a strong sense of originality. I have collaborated with Michael on East Coast Encounter, a long-term multi-facted art project, as well as on books and other presentations requiring crisp delivery. Red Bilby always nails it!

Michael Chanter and I met in the Vietnam War. We were fighting on opposite sides, but one Christmas the strangest thing happened. At the stroke of dawn it started to snow and the Viet Cong came out of their caves and gave us all puddings and presents. I took the opportunity to pick a few of them off from a tree. But there was one Viet Cong I didn’t shoot. He had made a bicycle for me out of his own hair. I wept as I rode it and still do to this day. (The chain keeps catching my socks and it strangles my ankle) I’m glad I let him live because otherwise we might not have seen this wonderful book.

I cannot begin to tell you how pleased I am with the website Michael created for me. Not only do I really like it, more importantly it has made a very positive impression on my clients and potential clients, from both the look and layout to the content. I also greatly appreciate the level of service Red Bilby provided as we went through the whole process. When my publisher suggested I approach Red Bilby to build the site, I was already aware of Michael’s work as the designer for my book “The Promise”, so I was not surprised by his high standards of graphic design. I was absolutely delighted.

I’ve loved working with Michael, he did such an ace job on the graphic design of my book “Inspiring Ingredients” and has great attention to detail. He even popped my hand writing on the cover and was able to intertwine my drawings throughout the book. He also built me an amazing website which really captured my ethos and energy. I have loved working with Michael and Red Bilby and look forward to continuing to do so, real nice soul.”

Over the years I have worked closely with Michael on a number of books produced by One Day Hill Publishers. His outstanding graphic art and design skills, together with a highly professional, yet calm manner, meant working with Michael was always a pleasure for everyone involved. Michael’s personal commitment ensured each and every project ended up looking great. I look forward to working with Michael again.

Mike is a dream to work with! I’ve never worked with anyone who is so cool under pressure – and there was plenty of that (for me at least!) in publishing my first book. From taking a basic concept and turning out a creative design to the tedium of line by line typesetting, Mike is endlessly patient, flexible and open to new ideas and new projects. I’d recommend him to anyone – as long as he keeps time free for my next book!

‘Mike’s design work is of the highest quality. Innovative and clever, Mike has a keen eye that will make your product unique. We all want to stand out from the crowd so using Red Bilby makes so much sense!

During his time at carsales.com.au, Michael was a wonderful asset to the business. He can rightly lay claim to the inspiration behind the carsales logo and many of the logos for the other sites we operate. He is a talented designer, was a key contributor to our fantastic culture and is one of the most creative people I know.
Greg Roebuck – Managing Director and CEO carsales.com.au

I have used Michael Chanter’s expertise to improve my businesses for over 25 years. Over the years we have used Mike’s expertise for print design – brochures, in-store promotions, point of sale material and currently to produce very effective videos. Red Bilby also designed, created and manages the ThermoGlaze website in Australia and the UK. Mike and Tania are a great team, and as the “big ears” in the Red Bilby logo illustrate: THEY LISTEN which makes them the ideal partner for any business owner wanting to improve their marketing.
Tony Brady – Managing Director, ThermoGlaze
On behalf of the staff at Silverstone Jaguar and Aston Martin, I would like to congratulate you and your team for the fantastic effort in building our website. We have had many compliments from customers, prospective buyers and internet surfers on not only how great the site looks, but more importantly how quick and easy it is to use. Your team was most helpful and efficient during the build and as a result the website was completed well within the specified deadline.
Tammy Henry – Marketing Manager, Silverstone Jaguar
Audio Trends turned to Michael Chanter for help in developing a new web site to keep us at the top of our field. We are now known Australia wide as the AV reference (retail) web site and Michael was the key in designing our website and establishing our corporate “brand”. Additionally, Red Bilby has provided invaluable help with our print media and video production needs.
Stephen Lee – Owner and founder, AudioTrends
I first became aware of Red Bilby when I received a promotional email – at first I thought it was just another company wanting my time and money for very little output. How wrong I was. After reviewing the website I went with my gut instinct. I run a Bed and Breakfast business in the Yarra Valley and have been open for just over 2 years – I’ve been very successful so far, however, what Mike Chanter and his team had to offer was too good to pass by. Mike was able to take me through the process efficiently and professionally. Since the video went to air on my website and Facebook, I have had many enquiries and these have led to bookings. Mike and his team are very passionate about what they do. I have also engaged Red Bilby to re-design and host my website.
