We work with a number of clients, from start-ups to large corporations, helping them to plan, develop and deliver their digital strategies.
How does this differ from standard project delivery?
Rather than focusing on delivering a single project, we'll work with you indefinitely, to help shape and evolve your digital roadmap as your business grow.
We'll apply the same 7dots approach (read more on our approach page) to each micro project on your roadmap, but ensure one eye is kept firmly on the bigger picture. We won't put a solution in place now which we feel will limit your options further down the line. Equally, if we think a small adjustment to your current requirements now will reap dividends in future, we'll factor that in. It might mean compromise now or it more might mean increasing the current scope.
We would like you to think of us as partners, not simply suppliers.
The advantages
Working with a digital consultancy, rather than a traditional agency brings many advantages, including:
You don't have to commit to a full project cost from the outset - we'll work with you to ensure we can deliver a solution that meets your budgets.
Consultancy provides a much better platform for planning and far more flexibility in approach. We're not tied to any one system, or one pool of employees to deliver a solution.
You get a team taking full responsibility for delivering the project(s) – planning, spec’ing, managing resource, and most importantly keeping you up to date.
We’re "on tap" when you need us, whether it’s the current project or other upcoming ones. We're here to advise, even if other projects are being handled by third party partners.
We have every incentive to make it work as our model relies on the principle that you are so happy with our services you want to continue past "project 1"! However large or small the next project may be.
You still get to tap into our network of trusted and professional suppliers (from freelancers to specialist companies), ensuring we can deliver an agile solution for all budgets.
A few years ago, I was asked by an account manager whether there was a formula he could apply to calculate the cost of "a website". He was looking for a spreadsheet he could take to client meetings to provide costs on the fly without getting project managers and developers involved. You can imagine the sort of thing - a picking list with functionality and prices next to each one.
I remember thinking it was a reasonable enough request. But very naive. read full post
Socialist or capitalist – which one are you?
Or are you a bit of both? Someone who likes to think they have a sense of social responsibility but is far from devoid of materialistic tendencies. You go on anti-capitalist demonstrations, but you take an EasyJet flight. Are you going to vote Labour or Tory? Or is [...] read full post
