Partnering with the best agency for website design is easy.
Let’s do this.
Partnering With Us
You deserve to know what you’re getting into.
Pretty work and results matter. But, so does the level of service you receive from your digital agency. Most agencies get squeamish when asked what it’s like working with them. That ain’t us.
How satisfied were you with your last digital agency?
Agile work plans
There’s no single best solution on the web. We use our experience, size, and agility as an advantage when addressing your projects. Our approach involves breaking down a project into smaller, manageable parts, continuously collaborating with you, and adapting to changing requirements through a cross-functional team of senior experts. We’ll never pressure you into one way of working or make you feel like you’re part of some big agency machine.
Flexible billing
We’re great at aligning work budgets to fit your fiscal cycles. Need to push an invoice to meet next quarters goals? Looking to fast-track before EOY? Our Website Growth Plans roadmap out the entire digital picture to align your most pressing priorities with the great Northstar. We’ll help you plan it out with the budgets you know, then ebb and flow with your business’s needs as you go. Just ask.
Regular check-ins
Collaboration is a key part of our service model. We’ll set a cadence of strategy meetings, reporting, and status check-ins that give you the opportunity to prioritize and reprioritize items in the backlog as business needs change or user feedback trickles in. When we say you’ll never wonder what we’re working on, we mean it.
Anytime support
We view support as being there for you– always. If your site goes down. When you need to restore an emergency backup. When malware has infected your sign-up form. On a holiday. On the weekend.
You’ll get access to a dedicated 24-hr support system, run by our in-house team, to address whatever comes up. We don’t just handle your website, we care for the digital side of your business.
Consistent reporting
We offer high-level views of the analytics to show you if the trends are going in the right direction. Want monthly personalized reports that let you know how your site or campaign is doing? No problem. Need a deep dive? We’ll schedule strategy sessions with you and create the data you need to share with stakeholders.
Partnering with us is easy.

FAQs
Partnerships, unpacked
Traditional agencies often rely on design interns or outsourced services for web development, while charging high retainers. They use account managers as intermediaries, leading to a lack of transparency in who is actually working on your project.
When you partner with us, you have a direct line of communication to the senior-level experts that are actually doing the work. Our approach is centered on strategy and utilizing business insights to discover and test the best digital solution. We prioritize transparency in our communication and decision-making processes.
We believe you should feel like you’re working with a team that listens to you, has your back, and the best interest of your business in mind. We really REALLY believe in providing great service day after day. This is where most agencies fall down. We think there’s huge potential in fixing the trust issues out there. Many of our clients complain to us about their previous agency experiences. We guarantee your satisfaction, and put it in writing to hold us accountable. We’ve been told working with us is easy – and that’s just awesome.
Ultimately, our work is owned by you. We ask that you remain involved and responsive for the duration of each project phase. We will do most of the heavy-lifting, and keep you updated about how things are going and what we need to keep the project moving forward. Some of the things we will need from you from the get-go: Access to existing accounts and passwords for certain services like DNS registry, old websites, FTP, etc or introductions to the parties that have access to these resources.
Your involvement is critical to help keep the project on track.
We like to be flexible and responsive to your needs, we also like to deliver what we promise within the timeframes and budgets we have allowed. If you ask us to add new features to your website while we are building it, we will most likely ask why? If we all agree that your new request will help us achieve our objectives then we will be more than happy to oblige.
If this new feature is something you would like to add to your website but is not directly tied to your original objectives, then we will suggest a change order or possibly we will schedule it for a second iteration of the website once it has been launched. Change Orders will be priced at a blended creative rate of $150/hr. The blended creative rate is a mixed rate including strategy, consulting, design, and web development. The scheduling of a new phase after the initial launch of the website will require a new proposal or we’ll just roll it into one of our digital support plans.
We strive to make the price quoted in our proposals all-inclusive; however, there are times when other incidental expenses may occur. Potential incidental expenses may include stock photography and video, third-party subscription fees, or custom fonts.
The answer is yes — we call it “Support”. A Think It First digital solution is a flexible and durable tool designed to evolve with your business. Our goal is to help you get the most from your investment long after launch. We stand behind our products and provide the support you’ll need to protect your site’s overall appeal and value, keep it secure, and running in tip-top shape, so that you present an optimal experience to your customers on every device.

Because No One Wants Another Self-Aggrandizing Newsletter in Their Inbox
Over the years, we’ve amassed quite a universe of contacts. Clients past and present. Vendors. Partners. Prospects that didn’t sign that we’re still close with. Employees that moved on to other cool things. Recently, we decided that we wanted to do something with that universe. That naturally led us to think “newsletter!” We thought about rounding up our most recent blog posts, showcasing our latest projects, and curating a bunch of interesting content from around the web. But then we thought otherwise.
