Process
Four moves, no black box
From pull
to launch.
You see real work every Friday and steer it while it is still soft.
01
Pull
It starts with a brief, even a pulled one. We call within a day, ask the awkward questions and send back a one page plan with a fixed price.
Day 1
02
Workshop
Two days in a room with your team. We map the audience, the competition and the one thing you have to own.
Week 1
03
Make
Weekly drops, never one big reveal. Design and build happen side by side, so what you approve is what ships.
Weeks 2 to 8
04
Launch
We ship it, film it and stick around. Every project comes with 90 days of care after launch, because day one is only day one.
Launch + 90 days
05
The people
Small on purpose
Fourteen people.
One lever.
The people you meet in the pitch are the people who do the work.
