House Rules? Yes. We don’t just say we make our own rules. We actually do it.
I. Stay Open: Right from the start, we communicate in an open way. We want to know everything about you, your project, your company, your weaknesses, your budgets, etc. This leads to the best solutions and - obviously - results.
II. Trust: Mutual trust is key. No trust = no collab. You’re working with us because you value our insights & vision, so it’s best if you let us get on with it. Obviously, you’re allowed to question things at all times… but if you want mediocre stuff, feel free to contact someone else.
III. No assholes: If we don’t feel a match or a ‘click’, it won’t work. We don’t work with or for assholes. Sorry.
IV. Believe: To be successful, it is essential that we believe in your project so we can jam all our passion & experience into turning your challenges into opportunities.
V. Smells like…: Time, scope & budget need to be balanced out. We’re happy to help you get out of the shit, but beware that we smell really nasty shit from a mile away. We prefer not to step into it unless we know we have the time and budget to turn it into really good shit.
VI. Grip: It’s essential that we have a solid grip on all elements that impact the end result. This means materialization, photography, copywriting, production, etc. God is in the details, you say? Maybe. But excellence and long-term profit definitely are.
VII. No money, no honey: We work, you pay. 50% of the project needs be paid upfront. Not because we don’t trust you, but a) we’re not a bank and b) we want to focus on your challenge and not on chasing after our money to pay our people.
VIII. Zero compromise: Compromises weaken the result. If you want impact, don’t minimize your chances of success.
IX. Rhythm: In the creative dance between client and agency, you need to follow a kind of rhythm to make it work. Well, we’re dancing experts. We lead, you follow. Trust us. See rule n°II.
X. No rules, just house rules: We’re very efficient rule-breakers, so we’ll question certain values & propose things you might not expect or things that might challenge you. If you want generalist solutions, call +31 (0)70 20 55 688.
