our process

Strategy

We’ll sit down and discuss your goals and problem you are trying to solve for. Not sure about what you’re after? That’s no problem as we’ll work with you to fill in the blanks.

Production

Once we have a strategy, we’ll draft a refined creative brief and get to work on making your content. This is where your vision really starts to come to life.

Implementation

Time to spread the word and get your assets out into the world. Arguably the most important part happens here where we measure results and refine as necessary.

    CHIEF OF BARKETING

    From the racetracks of New Zealand to a very comfy counch, Lucy has years of sales experience using her looks to extract treats from her owners. In a pinch she can also be a celebrant so long as you are willing to reward her with endless pats. Naturally, she’s in charge of social media and takes it seriously.

    Ivan

    UNPAID INTERN

    It’s hard to overstate Ivan’s contribution to the team as Lucy’s intern. What he lacks in sales skills, he makes up for with enthusiasm and looks. In addition to his unpaid role, he also moonlights as a security guard. Enquire within if you require extra hands at your business or are seeking endless whines for attention.
