01
Mission Plan
Together with our clients, we create a plan that removes assumptions from the process and sets us up for mutual success. We include KPIs, stakeholder input, competition research, and other crucial influencers. We pull together what is known and research the unknown. And in the end, the information we reveal guides the strategy and tactics we need to accomplish the mission ahead.

Mission Design
Our design process untangles the big, hairy messes that prevent an effortless user experience. First, we map out the architecture and necessary user flows. Next, we begin low-fidelity sketches and wireframes of how content is presented and how interactions function. We then move into high-fidelity visuals. We are meticulous in our craft. Each pixel and every interaction matters.

03
Mission Build
It’s now time to bring our work to life in code. We use an agile development process to ensure efficient delivery and continuous improvement of code. We begin with a front-end, open-source framework such as Foundation or Bootstrap. We then handcraft every feature, interaction, and animation. Finally, we ensure the website is responsive on device types and at every resolution.

Mission Launch
Here’s where our planning pays off. Here’s where we push our code live, walk you through the platform, and hand off any assets or documentation. We often continue our partnership after a project is live. We can continue to deliver value by applying our iterative cycle of “Create, Measure, Learn.” We will run tests, follow analytics, and gather user feedback to continue to improve the effectiveness and performance of our work.
