Our Sydney branding agency delivers potent world-building that underpins brand performance
Founded by Dain Walker
Clients often came to us frustrated by agencies that sold fluff, their brands struggling to stand out. Dain Walker saw this challenge and flipped the script back in 2019, building Rivyl to create genuine market presence for businesses like yours. Today, he is one of the most sought-after minds in branding. His work spans global icons, cult labels, and rising stars from Culture Kings to Andrew Schulz, each one sharpened by his relentless obsession with clarity, originality and results.

How we became a creative agency
$200K IN DEBT, DAIN has a vision
Frustrated with his job, broke, and with a desire to prove himself, Dain witnesses a friend’s business spend heavily on poor design and spurred on by a Gary Vee event, decides to start freelancing.
FIRST HIRE AS VICTORY FRONT
Dain Walker hired the first employee (shoutout to the OG Carlos) and started selling month-to-month content packages to brands who admired his social media presence, mentorship and growth.
WE ESTABLISH OUR LEADERSHIP
In a year of accelerated change, we rebrand to Rivyl, growing from 1 to 15 staff. Dain’s Instagram grows from 280-400k followers, we expand our branding services, and our leadership team is unearthed and established.
THE MAVERICKS HAVE A STUDIO
After founding Rivyl in the midst of a global pandemic and connecting via Zoom, masked meetings and memes, Rivyl sets up a creative studio in North Sydney, Australia. Our creativity has a physical home!
agency podcast is founded
We expand on Dain’s personal mission to unpack what exactly entrepreneurs are doing to get ahead in business, establishing a podcast to interview people who take Agency both personally and professionally. Growing beyond 3.99M views in just 2 years.
AUSTRALIA’S FASTEST GROWING BRANDING AGENCY
We add gasoline to the accelerator: Dain launches The 90 Day Brand Plan, speaks on stage at EXMA in Mexico, is featured on TV (and parties with Andrew Shultz until dawn), all while the Rivyl team holds the fort with brands flowing in thick and fast.
