ENGAGEMENT TYPES

No confusing packages — just three ways to work with us

Project

You have a clear deliverable — a website, a brand system, a prototype. We scope it, build a team, and deliver it by a set date.

  • Fixed scope + timeline
  • 4–12 week engagements
  • Weekly progress check-ins
  • Full handoff package
Register

Best for: one-time builds, launches, and redesigns

Retainer

Ongoing capacity — a dedicated team that works with you month after month. Great for iterating fast without starting from scratch each time.

  • Monthly sprints
  • Dedicated team, no re-briefing
  • Priority scheduling
  • Scales up or down as needed
Register

Best for: growing teams, ongoing product work

Workshop

A focused, facilitated session (half-day or full-day) to solve a specific problem — brand positioning, product discovery, UX critique, content audit.

  • Half-day or full-day
  • Remote or in-person
  • Structured + facilitated
  • Outputs delivered same week
Register

Best for: kickoffs, pivots, and stuck teams

DIGITAL STRATEGY

Know where you’re going

Audits, competitive analysis, content strategy, and roadmaps. We help you figure out what to build, fix, or stop doing — before you spend a dollar on execution.
