We’re not a production studio. We don’t take on volume. And we don’t execute ideas we don’t believe in. The work we do requires trust, commitment, and a shared willingness to be seen.
If that sounds like how you work too, we may be a good fit.
If you’re looking for safe, incremental work, we’re probably not a good fit.
If you’re looking for clarity, conviction, and ideas that earn attention, we may be.
Most clients reach out because they feel their work could be stronger—but don’t want it watered down in the process.
No.
All projects begin with a paid engagement. This protects the work, the process, and everyone’s time—and leads to better outcomes for both sides.
That’s exactly why projects begin with a paid discovery and direction phase.
Before any large investment, we clarify:
the idea
the creative direction
the tone and boundaries
and whether the work feels aligned
This allows both sides to move forward with confidence—or part ways respectfully before a full project begins.
Creative Direction & Discovery is a focused, collaborative engagement designed to create clarity before any major creative investment is made.
During this phase, we work together to:
explore your goals, constraints, and context
identify what truly matters—and what doesn’t
clarify the core idea and creative direction
surface opportunities, risks, and points of tension
outline what a full project could look like in scope, timeline, and investment
This isn’t about polishing a brief or jumping into execution.
It’s about experienced, directional thinking that helps you see your work more clearly.
If we move forward together, this work carries directly into the full project. If we don’t, you still leave with clarity, perspective, and ideas you can apply elsewhere.
Many clients find this phase valuable on its own.
We’re open to working across many industries.
We’re not open to work that requires compromising our beliefs or faith.
Clarity and boundaries here lead to better work for everyone.
That’s okay.
The goal of the discovery phase is alignment—not obligation. Many clients tell us the clarity alone was worth the investment.
This is senior-level work, and pricing reflects that.
Projects are scoped intentionally and priced accordingly. We’re always transparent about investment before moving forward, so there are no surprises.
No.
The value is in the thinking, experience, and clarity provided—not a promise of future work.
This keeps the process honest and intentional.
This is a focused, one-time engagement designed to establish clarity—before any large creative investment is made.
explore the heart of the idea
define creative direction and boundaries
determine whether we’re the right long-term partner
It protects the work. And it protects both sides.
A structured conversation around goals, challenges, and context
Clear articulation of what matters—and what doesn’t
Direction on tone, positioning, and creative approach
Identification of opportunities, constraints, and risks
A high-level scope for what a full project could look like
This is not a brainstorm. It’s experienced, directional thinking meant to create momentum.
Creative Direction & Discovery is a one-time, non-refundable fee of $1,250.
If we decide to move forward together, this work carries into the full project.
If we don’t, you still leave with clarity and direction you can use.
Many clients tell us this phase alone was worth the investment.
This phase is about alignment, not obligation.
There’s no pressure to move forward.
There’s no expectation that discovery leads to a full engagement.
The goal is to make sure the work—and the partnership—are right before committing further.
If this feels like the right next step, we invite you to reach out.
You don’t need everything figured out—just a real project or question worth exploring. We review every inquiry personally and will recommend whether Creative Direction & Discovery makes sense for your next step.
