[CUBBY STUFF]
The Cubby Studio guide to getting the best out of your creative agency
Working with a creative agency should be a walk in the park. A partnership that supercharges your brand, and brings your ideas to life.
Start with as much clarity as possible
If you know what you need - tell us. If you don’t know what you need, tell us that too. If you think you know what you need, are being pulled in numerous different directions from within your organisation, or suspect what you’ve been asked to achieve is not going to cut the mustard - tell us it all!
The sooner we’re all on the same page, the better. We can help in all of the above circumstances.
Let’s understand your goals, your target audience, whether budget is the be-all and end-all, what you simply must have, and what we need to avoid. Then plug us in and watch us go (and importantly, in the right direction)
Be realistic with timelines
We’re fast, but we’re not miracle workers. You want your new brand/logo/brochure/creative audit to be brilliant. We want it to be brilliant. Allow the time for it to be brilliant - when it is, you’ll be keeping it for a lot longer!
Trust us on the creative stuff
You’ve brought in experts - lean on us! (we won’t fall over)
We are in the business of building brands into being more than the sum of their parts. That’s what we do. We’ll always keep your brand front and centre - but the best results definitely happen when you’re open to bold ideas, new directions, and a sprinkle of creative magic.
It’s good to talk….
It may seem obvious to say, but we don’t know what you don’t tell us. And ‘mind-reading’ is something surely best contained in sci-fi movies. Communicate openly, check-in regularly, and treat us as your creative partners.
As stated elsewhere on our website, we are proud that we treat our clients like we treat our friends. And we talk to our friends. About all sorts.
So let’s dive into the partnership with that spirit, then let’s stay together, loving you whether, whether, times are good or bad, happy or sad (they’ll be good and happy, just to be clear. The approach will produce results we will all love!)
