Here's what it's like to work with us:

First, we listen.
We invest a significant amount of time before we prepare a bid. And we do it happily. The more access we can have to you, your audience, your design/approval team, your internal client; the deeper our understanding of the problem, the audience, and their perception of the problem.

We ask: How would you define the problem? How did it get to this point? What ideas do you have about the solution? What have you tried in the past? What are your goals and objectives for this project? How will you know when you've achieved them? We ask about budgets, timeframes, deliverables, and methods of delivery.

Then we ask more questions.
Is there a true consensus about the definition of the problem and the desired outcome? We talk about expectations-what's the optimal method of communication between our firms? Who are the key contacts? How will this be communicated internally?

We build a relationship.
Whether we're the lowest bidder, the highest, or somewhere in-between, the people fit is as important as the money fit. We want to know you, and we want you to know us. Are we people you'd like working with? Is our firm the best fit for yours? We share our knowledge with you-our experience with similar companies facing similar problems. We share our expectations with you.

We believe you're buying a working partnership with us as much as you're buying a solution. And a working partnership means we both feel free to actively question-to push, to challenge each other in pursuit of the most innovative and efficacious solution. It's a relationship that requires a high amount of trust.

Now we bid the job.
We draft a proposal, outlining the problem, the desired outcomes, and our best take on the solution. We include a complete budget and a project calendar. We offer alternatives and point out economies. We review a draft with you and then we redraft the proposal to include your comments. NOW you have a document to take back to your team and your internal client.

Finally, if we get the nod, we present you with a contract that includes a price guarantee, a deadline guarantee, and the approved proposal as an attachment. We will deliver exactly what we promised.
