A peek into our philosophy and core beliefs.

Shared wisdom and hard-won lessons from decades of slipping and shipping, failing and succeeding.

WE BELIEVE

Audiences own the work

Not the agency, not even the client. You will never experience diva attitudes working with us, because we know this is extremely counterproductive (even destructive).

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Everyone is creative

We reject traditional silos where only certain people with specific degrees (or experience) are allowed to be “creative”. We believe that everyone 
brings a unique and valuable perspective and that work is enhanced when we all get to wear our creative hats.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Undiscussables are the enemy

We should be able to discuss anything, at any time. No exceptions. Because trust isn’t deserved, it’s earned.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Hard work is hard enough

We strive to eliminate inessential hardships (and distractions) to maintain focus on the essential work.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Process is also a product

Just as we design, develop, and iterate project artifacts, we design, develop, and iterate processes. Because, while creativity might symbolize a process of evolution, process may exemplify the evolution of creativity itself.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Clients are the gatekeepers

Post-launch, we smoothly hand off sites to client internal teams for maintenance. That is, unless we're hired to continue work (in which case we train and empower clients to actively collaborate in Webflow).

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Doing great work should seem daunting, even dangerous

Grit makes things happen and moves the needle. However, raw courage needs to be coupled with sensible decision making. A balanced and tempered charisma where trust, integrity, and chemistry are preserved.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Decision fatigue is real

We seek to make the process of getting from A to Z (and beyond) as streamlined as possible. This is why we strongly prefer morning meetings for key decisions and quick 15–20 minute syncs for course corrections. We distribute agendas and articulate desired outcomes for each meeting, and are vigilant timekeepers.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Your site is not your product but it should work like one

Sites must be user-centered and iterative. That’s why, rather than spending arduous cycles labeling a button or tweaking a headline, we insist on A/B testing. We allow audiences to decide what works best.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Marketing, sales, and product are three essential legs of a stool

If these are out of balance, the stool topples. We have seen marketing often become deprecated in importance (and investment) due to its relative subjectivity. This is why we define metrics (and do measurements) so that results are clearly defined, achieved, and communicated.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Technology and design must remain intentional and purposeful

These disciplines can easily become introverted, and neither is an end in itself. We avoid technology for technology’s sake and take a pragmatic and systematic approach to all design (form following function).

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Every project has its urgencies, but we can all work to minimize emergencies

Fires are only useful when burning outdated ideas and attitudes to the ground. While we have built a reputation for effective firefighting, we always prefer fire prevention.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Success can't suck for anyone

A “win-win”, regardless of how it sounds, is adversarial. We instead strive for a mutual yes, a collaborative agreement. There must always be a place of general satisfaction, mutual benefit, and acceptable compromise or we can't proceed.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

The site you launch now is not the site you will need next year

No problem, as our processes and technology allow sites to continue adapting to evolving business needs and the shifting competitive landscape. We also help plan ongoing investments to ensure that we are shipping the most relevant and timely work for your business.

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

A simple “yes” or “no” is rarely the best answer (and never the entire answer)

From strategic pivots to large scope shifts, instead of reacting in the moment, we consider options and provide thoughtful responses. Usually a “yes, and…” (an extension or new opportunity) or “yes, but” (a necessary tradeoff or compromise).

Prompt Belief

WE BELIEVE

Value is much more important than cost

When planning annual spending, we have often seen the conversation shift quickly from “What was spent last year?” to “What value was created last year?” Spending may be better justified when we align with business objectives, define metrics, build in measurements, regularly report on the results, and regularly re-align as needed.

Prompt Belief

Things you might be asking...

What is your rate card? How do you estimate projects?

Along with the shift from waterfall to more agile methodologies, we have observed a steady migration from fixed-bid towards time-and-materials engagements. We rarely just "bill what we burn" as we prefer (and clients require) accurate estimating and tight controls. We have found a balance between remaining nimble while remaining on track in terms of budget, with every client (and project) having different billing/budget requirements.

The bottom line? We would rather be doing great work than minding the clock.

Can we use our existing workflow and productivity tools?

Definitely! While project management tools like Asana, Monday, Notion, ClickUp, Trello, and JIRA each have their strengths, the secret is in being a polyglot – fluent in all these languages. We'll harmonize with your existing productivity platforms, optimizing workflows into a finely-tuned orchestra of efficiency.

Can Prompt work with our preferred dev stack and CMS?

Webflow and Framer are our platforms of choice for all site development and hosting. The reasons are numerous, primarily based on embracing low-code/no-code (LCNC) principles. That being said, we can build custom solutions using a variety of frameworks (Angular, React, etc.) and CMS platforms (WordPress, Sanity, Drupal, and Joomla, to name a few).

Why Webflow and Framer?

Our clients have similar demands – rapid time to deployment, ease of maintenance, and simple content updates. Rather than building a bespoke codebase where engineering and development teams are gatekeepers, we prefer a codebase that is owned and maintained by the client (typically the marketing organization).

Essentially, both Webflow and Framer provide a streamlined site development path for clients looking to deploy ongoing site iterations, easily maintain site content, and significantly reduce ongoing development costs.

Do you build web and mobile apps?

No, but we can certainly refer you to one of our trusted partners. We can also support you with UI/UX design before handoff to the development team.
