Solution Ecosystem Mapping
The Gist
It’s about you, your team, the policies, communities, competitors, geographies and partners who make up your ecosystem. This isn’t positioning it’s orienting ourselves to the landscape we’re in. Knowing how to fit into landscapes that maybe foreign to use because that’s where our industry is going, as well as when to not participate or engage because we just don’t belong in certain places. This is how we’ll build a marketing platform the always resonates.

Our Approach
Our method bridges the chasm between how a company thinks about its values and how those values connect to its value.
In order to connect your value to your values we have to consider both the business and the brand so that when we engage, we know who we are and why.
For this reason, stakeholder brands aren’t looking to run campaigns as much as feed and fuel strong lasting reciprocal relationships.
Here’s how we’ will Work Together
Flat-rate
You pay a flat monthly rate – no surprises – and have a highly-skilled, flexible marketing team at your disposal. Hourly rates distract businesses with the amount of hours worked instead of the work being done. A flat rate keeps everyone focused on the goal at hand and producing the best work with the time and resources available.
Pod teams
We put together a marketing team for you that we call a pod. Instead of using the same staff to execute every job, we find experts whose own style and executions match closest to the company’s own desired voice and aesthetic. In this way, each pod is unique to the client and so is the output.
Sprints
We reassess your rate quarterly by evaluating the amount of work to be done and all the skill sets necessary to accomplish the goals. By constantly evaluating the landscape, we allow the deliverables to evolve naturally and never be outpaced by the market.
