Solutions · Agencies & studios
Pitch on Monday. Deliver by Friday.
An agency sells hours it does not have. The work that eats them is rarely the creative - it is the research behind the pitch and the production behind the deck.
The one job this page is about
Get through the unpaid pitch without spending the retainer on it.
- How often it comes round
- Every pitch - and the pitch is how the work arrives.
- Skip it once
- You either absorb research you cannot invoice, or you go in thin against a studio that did it.
The week
Every ask is reasonable. Wednesday is not.
An agency's constraint is concurrency, not capability. Read the columns rather than the rows and the capacity question is obvious.
Every ask on its own is reasonable. Read the columns instead of the rows: Wednesday decides whether a sixth account is growth or a resignation.
How agencies & studios use it
One ask each. The real file back.
Every document below opens. None of them is a mockup.
The pitch is the product until the account is won, and nobody bills for it.
The problem
What this actually costs you.
The pitch is unpaid and the research is the expensive half.
Every proposal needs a market you do not work in yet, and most pitches lose.
What we do
The competitive read comes back in one pass with sources, so a pitch costs hours.
- Multi-angle research sweep
- Competitor price and assortment tracking
- Editable deck
Production time is billed at creative rates.
Boards, decks and guidelines are not what the client pays for, but they take the week.
What we do
The document is authored and rendered, so the hours go on direction, not layout.
- Print-quality PDF
- Editable deck
- A shareable web page
Every client wants a different visual system, fast.
Holding four brands' palettes in one head is how the work starts to look the same.
What we do
Each collection's visual DNA is recorded, so a client's frames stay on their own hand.
- Collection visual memory
- Licensed photography and video
- Your own image library
What actually runs
An agency sells hours, so the work that scales is the work that does not need one of yours. One system, 102 tools and 222 playbooks behind it.
