03 — Three ways we work
Pick the engagement that fits the scope. We size the team and rhythm around it — not the other way round.
01
Fixed scope. Fixed timeline. Fixed outcome.
Best for: a campaign, a website, a launch, or a defined piece of work with a clear end date.
Talk to us about a project02
Continuous capacity. Compounded results.
Best for: ongoing marketing, content, paid media, or development support that benefits from continuity.
Talk to us about a retainer03
A senior squad. Inside your business.
Best for: scaling teams that need design / dev / marketing capacity but don't want to hire and manage in-house.
Talk to us about a embedded team04 — Our delivery process
Every engagement looks a little different — but the rhythm is consistent. Here's what the first 90 days typically look like.
Phase 01
Discovery
Phase 02
Build
Phase 03
Launch + follow-up
Week 0
Discovery call, written brief, and a fixed-fee scoping engagement if the project is complex. You get a written plan before you commit to anything bigger.
What you get
Week 1
Half-day on-site or video kickoff with everyone on both sides. We align on goals, decision-makers, success metrics, and what's out of scope.
What you get
Weeks 2 – 4
Strategy work, identity, technical foundations, content architecture. Weekly working sessions. Friday review every Friday.
What you get
Weeks 5 – 10
Heads-down build. Two-week cycles, demos every other Thursday, decisions logged centrally, no surprises at the end.
What you get
Final week
Hand-over package, training session, documented systems, agreed measurement plan. We set the next review date before we leave.
What you get
30 / 60 / 90 day check-ins
Three scheduled follow-ups after delivery. We measure against the success metrics we agreed in the kickoff and adjust if needed — included in every project.
What you get
90 days from kickoff to a working business outcome.
Demos every two weeks. Decisions logged centrally. No surprise invoices. No silent change of direction.
Outsourcing FAQ
Seven working days end-to-end. Day 1 brief, day 2-4 candidate selection, day 5 shortlist call, day 7 they're in your Slack with kickoff completed.
You meet three pre-vetted candidates for each role. You pick. We brief the chosen person on your business before day one — they show up running, not learning.
Free replacement inside the first 10 working days. After that, two weeks' notice on either side — same as a normal contractor. No severance, no exit clauses.
Roughly equivalent to fully-loaded internal cost (salary + recruitment + benefits + management overhead) for the first year — and lower from year two onward because we carry the ongoing recruitment risk.
Yes. Embedded roles are 100% allocated to one client. No moonlighting across accounts. If you book 40 hours a week, you get 40 hours a week.
You do, on monthly invoice clearance. Code, designs, documentation, runbooks — all assigned to your entity in the master services agreement.
Yes. Add or remove embedded seats with two weeks' notice. Senior team members can also be flexed in and out as needed for short-term spikes.
Prishtina, Tirana, Zürich, Frankfurt, or Malmö — whichever office is closest to your time zone. All embedded staff operate in your working hours, regardless of where they sleep.
Three ways to get started — pick what fits. A senior on our side replies within one working day, usually a lot sooner.
Pick a time. Get a senior on the line. Walk away with next steps.
Send what you have — a paragraph, a doc, a Figma. We'll write a scope back.
Business hours, every working day. A senior picks up — not a gatekeeper.
