Insights, intelligence, and impact at every stage of the customer journey.

Our Approach

Customer-first perspective

Everything we do starts with one question: “How does the customer see this?”

Fiduciary responsibility

We treat your investments as our own. In other words, with the utmost care.

Hands-on help

Our team has full-stack skills and technical expertise, so we’re not afraid to get in the weeds with you.

Iterative strategies

The world is constantly changing. Your strategy should, too. We deliver strategies that evolve, adapt, and grow with your business.

Workshops

Sound boring? Not the way we do it. Our workshops bring smart, diverse groups of people together for brainstorms, experiments, insights, and inspiration. It’s actually kind of magical.

Stewardship

It’s not enough to have plans — they need to be put into action. We’re available to help execute ideas by acting as an advisor or general contractor after the initial engagement.

Case Studies

Spin Master Case Study

Spin Master wanted to diversify their sales channels and develop in-house DTC marketing capabilities. We designed strategy workshops, acted as e-comm product managers, and headed growth marketing. Once the DTC channels were validated, we transitioned responsibility to their in-house team.

Sales and profitability increased while reducing reliance on third-party media thanks to our collaborative approach and expertise.

Holler Case Study

Holler needed dating app behaviour research in an effort to understand whether anyone would use in-app icebreaker games and, if they would, how ultimately they’d do that. We also provided product feedback based on user testing.

Insights were gathered from 45 participants across 15 apps to develop four product prototypes, including functionality recommendations and monetization opportunities. We validated these prototypes and produced frameworks for continued development, resulting in well-received products that stood the chance of standing out and receiving investment.
