Case Study: Enhancing Dunlea Centre’s Digital Identity with COG Marketing
Dunlea Centre, Australia’s original Boys’ Town, has been a cornerstone in supporting at-risk adolescents and families. Their mission to restore relationships through quality therapeutic and educational services is critical, but their digital presence didn’t fully reflect their profound impact. To address this, Dunlea Centre partnered with COG Marketing, seeking to enhance their online identity and extend their reach to more families in need.
The Challenge
Dunlea Centre faced several challenges before engaging COG Marketing:
- Their website lacked modern design elements and wasn’t optimised to clearly communicate their range of services.
- The brand needed a stronger visual identity that better resonated with the families and communities they serve.
- They had limited digital marketing initiatives, which restricted their ability to connect with potential donors, partners, and families.
- Managing their website hosting and email domains had become a challenge, affecting their ability to communicate efficiently.
Dunlea Centre required a comprehensive marketing solution to improve their digital presence and strengthen their outreach.
The Solution: COG Marketing’s All-In-One Services
COG Marketing provided Dunlea Centre with a holistic solution, integrating branding, digital marketing, and business strategy to drive meaningful growth and enhance their visibility. As Dunlea’s trusted partner, COG Marketing delivered a suite of services, including:

COG Marketing revamped Dunlea Centre’s website, creating a clean, easy-to-navigate platform that highlights their therapeutic and educational services. The new site is mobile-responsive, fast-loading, and optimised to improve user experience. It features clear calls to action, helping families access support and encouraging potential donors to get involved. The enhanced site also boosted search engine performance, increasing overall traffic. - Branding and Graphic Design
Dunlea Centre’s brand identity was revitalised to better align with their mission of empowering at-risk youth. COG Marketing developed a new logo and refined the colour palette and typography to create a compassionate yet professional image. This consistent branding now stretches across all marketing materials, from brochures to website design, making Dunlea Centre more recognisable and impactful in the community. - Digital Marketing Strategy

Regular content updates, including blogs and success stories, nurtured engagement and built trust within their audience. - Business Strategy and Consultation

Together, they developed strategies that will sustain Dunlea Centre’s ability to serve the community long-term. - Website and Email Hosting
Reliable website and email hosting were essential for Dunlea Centre to maintain smooth operations. COG Marketing provided secure and reliable hosting solutions, ensuring the website remained live and accessible at all times. This also improved the reliability of internal communications through secure email hosting, essential for daily operations and client support. - Printing and Promotional Products
In addition to their digital efforts, COG Marketing supplied Dunlea Centre with high-quality fast printing print online, such as brochures, flyers, and custom promotional products. These materials helped the centre engage potential supporters at events and in-person meetings, reinforcing their brand and mission.
