Hey, you there!
crap.
flannel.
jargon.
bullshit.
Why would people want to buy from you? And why might people want to work for you?
Do your kids understand what you do? Can you put it in six words? Can the guy on the front desk explain it?
We find the truth about your business, and then we help you to tell the world about it.

a studio of our own
purpose workshop
For us to really help you and your business, the first thing we need to do is get to know you. We like to start with a 1-day purpose workshop, that we call ‘Purpose Workshop’ (it’s about keeping things simple and straightforward you see.)
It works like this...
We meet you and your team (in person ideally, but Zoom can work), and take you through a series of activities to help you to see your business in a new way, to get to the heart of why it is that you do what you do and why anyone should care.
It’s this workshop that helps us get answers to thorny questions like, ‘do people really understand who you are?’ and ‘what makes you different?’.
Then we take the mass of thoughts and hopes, concerns and dreams that come out of the workshop, and we turn them into something more concrete — a set of values and principles that your entire team can get behind, and an action plan for world domination.
What's included?
-
We'll analyse your existing website and messaging, and provide you with industry-specific research to identify how you stand among your competitors.
-
A 1-day workshop with up to 8 of your team, (ideally a cross section of different levels/functions from within your business, to get a 360 degree view).
-
We'll develop a bespoke action plan containing your brand purpose and principles, boilerplate language that articulates the reasons why people should care that you exist and key opportunities to help you bring them to life.
How much does it cost?
So, if you're looking to do better there's never been a better time to start.

We're here to help you to identify the issues that matter to the people that matter to you.
Then we develop, implement and communicate the positive changes that will transform your organisation into a force for good.
