Outsourcing

The majority of the time, we do not outsource. We have in-house expertise in web design, website development, copy and content writing, HubSpot services, digital advertising, and more. However, we outsource services in the following narrow use cases.

In the early stages of website design

We may outsource the generation of site design ideas to get our clients more options for the visual direction we're taking the site. This helps us avoid design groupthink and results in a better end product.

When a build requires an unfamiliar CMS

95+% of the websites we manage use either HubSpot CMS or Webflow CMS. In the rare cases when a client build requires a different CMS, we may outsource the development work.

Video and animation

We also work with trusted partners to provide video production and animation services. Scripting, post-production for live video, and video publication and deployment are handled in-house by our team.

Our agency believes in data-driven decision making to achieve your goals while maximizing budget. That’s why at the beginning of a client engagement we deliver a custom strategy assessment that lays out a finding-informed blueprint for achieving your goals in the short-, medium- and long-term.

Our team tracks key performance metrics to measure progress toward and completion of the goals outlined in your strategy. This means that we report as close to the bottom line as possible, prioritizing KPIs like leads, deals, and revenue generation over “vanity metrics” that don’t tie directly to your goals.

Access management

While we may request access to accounts like HubSpot, Google Analytics, or Google Ads to carry out our services, you will always remain in control of and have access to your own accounts. Should you decide to end our relationship, we will assist you and/or your new partner in transitioning access permissions as needed.

AI & LLM transparency

In the rapidly evolving world of digital marketing, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) are playing a pivotal role to enhance creativity, efficiency, and productivity. We understand that with these advancements come questions and concerns. Our commitment is to provide clear, honest information about how we use these technologies to enhance our services while upholding the highest ethical standards.

How we use AI & LLMs

Optimizing and augmenting human content production:

We use AI to assist in creating high-quality, engaging content. This includes generating ideas, synthesizing interview transcripts, drafting initial content outlines, and suggesting improvements. However, all content is thoroughly planned, reviewed, and refined by our human experts to ensure it’s accurate and aligns with your brand voice and goals.

For example, to inform the content we create, we often conduct interviews with subject matter experts at your company. These are conducted over video conferencing software that is automatically recorded and turned into a transcript using AI. We then use the transcript to write a draft. Experts have the opportunity to provide feedback before content is published. The draft is often run through editorial AI software to identify grammatical mistakes and other obvious ways to improve the draft. Typically, a human editor will also review the content before publication.

Data analysis for personalized marketing

AI helps us analyze large datasets to understand customer behaviors and preferences. This enables us to create highly personalized marketing strategies and content, improving customer engagement and conversion rates.

Chatbots for customer service

We may deploy AI-driven chatbots on your website to provide instant assistance to your visitors. These chatbots are programmed to answer frequently asked questions and gather customer inquiries, which can later be addressed by a human team.

How we don't use AI & LLMs

Replacing human creativity and judgment

While AI assists in content creation, it does not replace the human creativity and expertise that is crucial for crafting messages that resonate with your audience. Our team always has the final say in what content represents your brand.

Invasive or unethical data practices

We strictly use AI for analyzing publicly available data or data obtained with consent. We never engage in invasive data collection practices and always prioritize user privacy and data security.

Automated decision-making in critical areas
