Smaller jobs move through it in days, larger ones in weeks, but nothing gets built before we agree what it is for. 1. 01 ### Audit I look at what you have today: the site, the content, the data and how people use it. Then I tell you plainly what is working and what is not. 2. 02 ### Decide We agree the goals, the scope and the structure, in writing, before any design or build work starts. 3. 03 ### Build I design and build in short rounds, with a private preview link at every step, so there are no surprises at launch. 4. 04 ### Sustain After launch I look after the site, measure what changes and keep improving it, or hand it over cleanly to your team.
