The brief

Who are we talking to, and how do they speak?

The series focuses on Australian dads with young kids — four to five, selected from different backgrounds. The conversation is guided but unscripted, so it stays organic and honest. Strategic editing and post-production accentuate the humour, candour and advice that comes out of it.

What's the objective?

To educate dads about finance, money and being prepared when planning a family — through honest, casual conversations in the familiar setting of a barbershop, rather than another financial lecture. HBF graphic animations overlay key facts at key moments, positioning the brand as a trusted, judgement-free voice.

Where does it live?

Weekly on the HBF DAD Facebook page and the HBF website.
