Our Extended Team

Web, Photography, & Design Contractors

Our small team allows us to be super personal and flexible. When necessary, we have creative friends that we call upon for a little extra support. Never fear, they are all extremely vetted and we will let you know before an extra hand is brought into your project. You won’t incur any extra expense (unless you work with them directly) and we will remain your main point of contact.

Let's Be Friends

What We Value

We work best with people who share our values. So if you read this list and it resonates with you, you’d probably enjoy hanging out with us 🍋

Relationships are #1

It all starts and ends with human relationships. We are humans (the robots haven’t taken over yet), and we want to connect with other humans who are connecting with other humans, and so the spiral goes.

Clear is Kind

We participate in, and expect, clear and honest communication with our partners. We’re all committed to having hard conversations when necessary, setting healthy boundaries, admitting when we don’t know the answer, and always telling the truth.

Fun Matters

It's a well-known fact that when you have fun, you produce better work. When you partner with us, there will be inside jokes, gifs, and good vibes.
‍

Creativity is Collaborative

As a creative team, we don’t work in a vacuum. We ask tough questions, listen openly, challenge assumptions, and share what we learn. When you work with us, you expect to work together, not keep us in a silo.

Beauty Converts

Maybe you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but we all do. Beautiful design catches attention. Beautiful words compel people to action. Beautiful websites are easier to navigate. And beautiful souls make a difference in the world.

Stay Curious

We are explorers, not settlers. We have the courage to explore new technologies, industries, and strategies. If we don’t have the answer, we’re not afraid to say, “I don’t know, but I’ll look into it.”

Style

Living our values means we are able to do really great work. When you work with us, here’s what you can expect.

Communication

We like to stay in touch. We communicate with openness, check in regularly, and make sure you know what’s going on. No ghosting allowed here.

Organization

We love lists and charts and tracking progress. We make plans, manage the details, and keep track of the data. We like to stay flexible, too.

Fun

We really like to have a good time. In meetings, you’ll hear us crack jokes, quote pop culture, and share memes. Laughter’ll cure what ails ya.
