Typically, our clients work with us in one of the following ways:
1. The Consulting Scenario
You need a strategist, analyst or information architect to help gather requirements, assess the current state of a web project, conceive or implement strategy, review the content on a site, create prototypes for user testing, get shareholder agreement and focus on a problem, or train you to become more productive on existing web and intranet tools. These are often limited-time engagements that end in a deliverable and a clear set of next actions.
2. The “Fast Prototype” or Startup Mode Scenario
Think of us as the web consigliere for your startup. You don’t have piles of cash or lots of time, you need a small team to get in there and build something quick so you can show the investors what you’ve got. This is the kind of situation in which we take you beyond the PowerPoint/Keynote presentation and provide you with actual living, breathing software that you can then base a business on.
3. The Ongoing Maintenance Scenario
You’ve already built a web site (and a Twitter page and a Facebook page and several blogs and a Flickr portfolio and Youtube channels) but now you can’t seem to keep track of anything. You need lots of help with managing and maintaining the every day bits of your digitally connected, mobile device enhanced, social media integrated, ecommerce powered, content managed business world.
