OUR PROMISE TO YOU. YOUR WEBSITE WILL BE:
Our development and marketing services are currently undervalued by an average margin of 80%, the savings all being passed on to the consumer.
As an agency, we have had the privilege of working with known organizations such as SONY, NFL, Mercedes, BMW, Korean Air, and many more.
Because we are a smaller agency of just 20 full-time employees, we can remain flexible in terms of fielding your questions, offering 1-1 consultations and remaining engaged and attuned with you throughout the design and development process.
Our team is trained in conversion rate optimization, the process of inciting web visitors into revealing commercially relevant information such as their name, phone and email. Although there are a number of talented web developers out there, few have background in this field.
People buy due to private signals (identity, trust, cost) and social signals (visible actions of others). If many people are engaging with a product, new users are more likely to follow, thinking, “All these people can’t be wrong.” This network effect drives successful marketing.
Although a number of agencies claim to be familiar with best practices in SEO, few have active SEO campaigns boasting first page positions on Google for commercially relevant terms. We have a number of successful SEO campaigns for web properties worth over $1M/year in search traffic and can substantiate this claim with live Analytics panels.
Our process begins with a meeting. We will sit down with you and brainstorm about disruptive, innovative site concepts that will help us promote your business and stand out from the competition.
Once our design team and you have approved the design, we will move on to the programming phase of the project. All functionality listed in your specification report, whether it be e-commerce, visual transitions, custom fades, click-to-call, membership functionality, or other heavyweight editorial content will be integrated in this phase.
Once we have identified the direction we want to go conceptually, our designers will get down to work. A few days after the concept approval, you will receive your first design, drawn out in detail via Figma. You will receive infinite revisions on this design.
After the completion of the programming phase, we will test the site in a Mac and Windows environment. After you have reviewed the site and approved it, we can deploy to a live server.
