First, we need to truly understand your business and needs. These insights might come from a detailed briefing, but it often includes a creative discovery phase as well.
During this phase, we identify, describe, and visualize the service requirements. This is also the stage where we initiate discussions about budgets, volume expectations, success metrics, and ROI targets.

Our approach is designed to be flexible, depending on the nature of the project. The aim is to collect as much objective data as possible to plan for success in future stages.
We will research competitors, analyze previous iterations, and delve into existing metrics, successes, and failures. However, the most reliable data comes from running a service for a test period to collect operational data under real-world conditions.

Documentation plays a starring role in this phase. What exactly are we aiming to achieve? How will we accomplish it? Who has a stake? What does scaling look like from the perspectives of inflow, capacity planning, and SLAs?
Tangibles created include detailed service-specific brand guidelines, service briefing guides for sales and customer success teams, and standard operating procedures for each tier of the creative production process.

Whether the evolutionary cycle is five days, weeks, or months, data-driven decision- making is critical to successful process evolution. Throughout the service lifecycle, we monitor, log, analyze, infer, test, and adapt.
We react to new inspiration, refine for changes in business drivers, and introduce a few random mutations for good measure. Continuous improvement is the make-or-break success factor.
