Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the full process take?

Discover and Plan usually take about two weeks combined. Develop and Design run in parallel over the next two to four weeks. Deliver is when things go live — and then it becomes an ongoing cycle of reporting and optimization.

Do I need to approve each phase before you move to the next?

Yes. You'll review and sign off on the Discovery Report and Strategic Roadmap before we start building — so there are no surprises once execution begins.

What if I already have a website or brand and just need marketing?

The process still applies — we just move faster through Develop and Design, focusing Discover and Plan on your existing assets and where the real growth gaps are.

How often will I hear from the team during a project?

You'll get weekly updates during active build phases, plus regular reporting once things are live — with a single point of contact throughout, not a rotating cast of freelancers.

Can this process be customized to my business?

Absolutely. The five phases are the framework, but the depth of each one flexes based on your business size, industry and which services you need — that gets scoped out during your free audit.
