1. We listen to your story
We listen to your story, as told by you, and as told by others across the world wide web. We learn what you want to communicate and what you need to achieve through your communication. We spend time to understand your audience's story; what shapes it, who tells it, how, and on what stage.
2. We tell your story back to you
We tell you what we hear you saying; what we understand you to what to communicate and what objectives you need to achieve. We also tell you your audience's story; what shapes it, who tells it, how and on what stage .
We discuss and agree with you how your story can be made one; the one authentic story about you. We discuss what this will take, and agree what is possible and what is not, within the time and budget available.
3. We go to the trenches
We do the necessary research, develop relevant, well-targeted and appropriate content, and put together a digital media execution plan.
4. We get to the screens
We set up digital media and other internet marketing accounts where this is needed, we revamp existing ones, and relieve you of the daily pressure of keeping up with your account if you're already managing one.

We evaluate your return on investment (ROI), work with you to set commercial objectives from the opportunities we create and and point you to new horizons.
6. We maintain your digital wellbeing
The digital space is an organic space with its own ecosystem. Left unattended, weeds, vermin and other unwanted species creep up on your properties.
We keep this away, in order that your brands are not wrongly associated, in order that your brands retain their value, and in order that your story continues to the one authentic story about you, told consistently by yourself and by communities in which you exist.
We hope to work together to achieve a well defined set of KPIs, typically around the following, among others:
Active and responsible handling of your social handles
Responsive engagement on your digital sales platforms
Improved measurement and evaluation of marketing activity
Increased market reach
Increased engagement of your audiences with your respective brands
