What we do, unpacked
Put simply, we are an agile group of digital experts that design and build business tools that run on the internet. Yes, we’re designers. Yes, we’re developers. Yes, we’re strategists. Yes, we’re business people. What makes us unique is that we start with “Why”? Is this new piece of website functionality driven by a business objective? Can this be built within budget with other priorities looming? Woven into our work is a layer of strategy and senior level expertise you don’t find in every agency. We specialize in WordPress site design. The senior folks here are the ones that are actually working on your projects.
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.
In today’s digital world, our work touches every industry. We believe that good design and a sound strategy span industry verticals. Our approach positions us as your customers and end users, while adhering to time-tested business and marketing principles. Advantages to you are gained by having a unique perspective at the table. Our client-partners can be found in the Life Sciences, Real Estate, Financial Services, Higher Education, Manufacturing, Non-Profit, and Global Retail sectors and more. Bottom line– if you like what you hear, let’s talk.
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.

An extension of your team
We do the heavy lifting. Have a sales quota or lead-gen problem and you just don’t know how to solve it? Bring your problems to us and we’ll help you reverse engineer a solution. The best thing about TIF is that we have the depth of expertise to recommend and deliver the solution.
All up in your business
Our partner relationships go way beyond “Build X for us.” We’re more than design and tech purists–we function where digital meets business objectives. We’re entrepreneurs who hit a lot of different notes. Our team brings a breadth of business, marketing, and sales knowledge. It’s knowing where design and tech can best be leveraged for business success that makes us dangerous.
Senior-level execution
Think It First is top-heavy. When you work with us, we bring to the table decades of experience using the web as a tool to accelerate growth and move the needle. Most agencies sell you a senior team and then pass you off to the green team. We don’t have one.
Clear communication
We pride ourselves on being transparent, organized, and actionable. You’ll never struggle to get in touch with us or wonder what we’re working on. We don’t use technical jargon to make ourselves seem smart. We educate and train you so that you feel comfortable managing the tools we design.
Outstanding service
Our mission is to create an agency experience unlike any other. We think (and act) differently. We listen. We do what we say we are going to do. We carefully cultivate lasting, meaningful partner relationships built on transparency, collaboration, and long-term results. We treat our clients not as a job to be done, but as a cause we invest in. Our success depends on yours.
