How we work
We get the best results when partner up with your team and make ourselves available on tap . Usually, that means being part of a joint Slack channel or having regular video catch ups discussing ongoing needs, which are then actioned ad hoc. For on-tap work we invoice for hours spent (or a fixed amount, if a retainer is involved) at the end of the month.
We also work on a project-by-project basis, in which case we will give you an estimate up front and invoice at agreed milestones, and we offer fixed price packages for standard products.
Who we work with
We primarily work with agencies or marketing teams lacking one or more of the skillsets we offer. Whilst we’re experts at design, UX and digital realisation, our clients are experts at the rest: content, branding and marketing.
A typical client might be:
- A communications team with lots of content but nowhere to put it.
- A marketing firm in need of an engaging landing page for their next campaign.
- A startup looking to improve a particularly challenging user journey.
- A brand agency, whose client is struggling with a difficult CMS.
- A design studio with little or no digital expertise.
- A performance expert wanting to create different iterations for A/B tests.
- A social media manager without the support of production designers.
- An editor or a writer looking for a better way to publish content.
Plenty of companies have a dedicated digital team. We’re here for the ones that don’t.
