Answers to the questions we get most.

The Creative Partnership starts at $5K/mo for the first three months, then moves to $10K/mo on six to twelve month terms. Project work starts here: design from $500, web from $1,000, photo from $1,500, video from $3,000. Creative direction on its own runs $250/hr. Those are floors, not quotes. A logo refresh and a full campaign are not the same conversation, so we scope the real number once we know what you are actually building. Tell us the budget you are working with and we will tell you straight whether we can do something real with it.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no, and we will say which on the first call. If the budget fits, we scope to it. If it does not, we will tell you that instead of stretching the work thin and delivering something none of us are proud of. We would rather lose the project than take one we cannot do properly.

The seat is a fractional CMO, so the honest comparison is a marketing leadership hire plus the people underneath them. Instead of payroll, you get one monthly number. $5K/mo for the first three months of discovery and onboarding, then $10K/mo on six to twelve month terms. That covers the seat, two working sessions a week, and the supporting design work. Photo, video, and web crews are available at cost when the plan calls for them. You are not carrying the payroll, the recruiting, or the risk of a bad hire.

Hire five freelancers and you get five versions of your vision, each one filtered through somebody working alone. You become the project manager, translating between people who have never worked together, and the output looks exactly like that. We are one team that already works together. Every deliverable goes through its lane lead and then the creative director, so what comes out the other side looks like one brand made it.

Say so and we fix it or we end it. The first three months of a partnership exist for exactly this reason. Both sides find out what the relationship is actually worth before anyone commits to a longer term. We are not interested in holding a client to a contract they have stopped wanting.

The people you talked to. Four crafts, one direction. Design, photography, video, and web and systems each have a lead, and creative direction sits above all four. Ninety-three years across the five of them and nobody under fifteen. Behind them we scale designers, developers, and full production crews to the job. There is no junior bait and switch, and nothing leaves without the lane lead and the creative director both signing off.

Faster than a committee, slower than someone cutting corners. Every piece of work gets a real timeline agreed at scope rather than promised in advance, and we flag anything that needs more lead time before it becomes a problem, not after.

There is no hard floor, there is a fit test. If the scope is too small to do properly we will say so rather than take the money and hand you something thin. Smaller pieces often make sense as a first project, because it is how both sides find out what working together is actually like.

Book a fifteen minute call. No pitch deck, no pressure. Bring what you are trying to do and roughly what you have to spend. You will leave with an honest read on what it would take and whether we are the right people for it.

Charlotte, North Carolina, with crews we scale wherever a production needs to happen. Most of the work happens remotely and it has never been the bottleneck. When a shoot needs a room, we have our own space and access to more.

You do, on delivery. Source files included. We keep the right to show the work in our portfolio unless an NDA says otherwise, but the work itself is yours.

Yes, and we sign more of them than we don't. Standard NDA is fine and common. If you have your own paper, send it over.
