Three ways of working. One of them will be obviously right.

We publish exactly how each engagement is structured — what is agreed, how it is staged, who is on it, and how it ends — so you can tell which one fits before you speak to anyone. The figure follows the scope, and we reach it together.

Project

A defined outcome, a fixed scope, and a date it is finished.

A rebuild, a migration, a launch — work with a clear edge to it.

How it is structured

Scope and success criteria agreed in writing before work starts
Fixed fee against that scope, staged to milestones
Change handled as a written variation, priced and agreed before it proceeds
Handover with documentation and access at completion

Retainer

A standing allocation of the team, month to month.

Ongoing growth marketing, iterative product work, continuous improvement.

How it is structured

An agreed monthly allocation of hours across the disciplines you need
A prioritised backlog reviewed together each month
Reporting against enquiries and pipeline stage
Thirty days notice either way

Embedded team

Named people working inside your process, on your tools.

Teams that need capacity and continuity inside their own process.

How it is structured

The same named individuals for the length of the engagement
In your stand-ups, your tracker, your repositories
Ramp-up and ramp-down agreed in advance
Direct access to the people doing the work

What you will always get, whichever model

A written scope
Agreed before work starts, with success criteria in it. Changes are priced and agreed in writing before they proceed.
Named people
You know who is doing the work and you can talk to them. Every person on your account is one you have met.
Your own accounts
Hosting, analytics, ad accounts and repositories are yours, in your name, from day one. You hold the keys to all of them throughout.
Handover documentation
Whatever we build, we document. Your team can run it, extend it, or hand it to anyone you choose.

Want to know which model fits?

Tell us the outcome and the constraint. We will tell you which model fits, what delivering it involves, and the range it sits in — before any proposal.
