Brands that make you feel something.
Strategy is the cumulation of research, customer surveys, best practices, analysis, and insights that go into making an actionable plan.
​
For us, this can be broken down into three main types of strategy:
​
-
Brand Identity aka messaging & visuals
-
Content Strategy aka what type of content and which platforms
-
Business Strategy aka how are you operating
​
With strategy, the goal is almost always the same "How do we help you take your business to the next level?"
​
01
Research + Discovery
Step 1 is understanding your industry's best practices and gathering current customers' insights, establishing competitive advantage and/or opportunity, and preparing for Step 2.
​
The goal at this step is to become outside experts in your industry and understand your current customers.
​
Some examples of this step include:
​
-
Customer Surveys
-
Data Analysis
-
Competitors Research
-
Website Audit
-
Social Media Audit
02
Planning
If Step 1 is all about information gathering and discovering opportunities, Step 2 is all about creating an actionable plan. ​
​
The goal at this step is to take everything we've learned in step 1 and to create your detailed Playbook that will help take your business to its next level.
Some examples of this step include:
​
-
Content Strategy
-
Social Media Planning + Strategy
-
Website Strategy
-
Visual Identity Strategy
​
03
Implemention
And finally, Step 3 is when it all comes to life!
​
At the end of step 2 we will have created a detailed Playbook as well as a list of final deliverables that are needed. The final step is making everything that we outlined!

How long will it take to build my website?We think it's bold to give a set answer on the internet but we also think this is a super valid question. So we'll give a range from our history. Typically, it takes between 6-8 weeks to go from the start of a project to the having a website ready to launch. The more exact answer of course is, it depends. It depends on how many pages you need. It depends on if you already have a website that we're pulling content from. It depends on if you need assistance with creating the content. But all in all, most websites with 4-5 core pages take between 6-8 weeks to have completed.

What do you use to build websites?We are pretty bullish when it comes to building on Wix but at the end of the day, we are flexible so we'll also build on Squarespace or Webflow (sorry, we're no Wordpress over here).
-
Why do you use web builders?The first answer is they are a lot faster than custom coding you a site. But they are also incredibly powerful, secure, and user-friendly. This means at the end of the day we're able to build you a beautiful site quickly, more affordably, and you'll be able to maintain it for the day-to-day!
