The filter

Built for one specific gap

This is your engagement if

You're closing bigger deals than your brand communicates and patching the gap one asset at a time. The patches stopped working.

It isn't if

One specific asset is the problem. If it's just the identity or just the site, the focused tiers close that gap for less.

How it works

5–6 weeks, start to close

Fixed scope, fixed fee, one senior team from kickoff to close. The timeline holds because the studio takes a limited number of engagements at a time.

  1. DiagnoseResearch first: market, buyers, and where the current brand leaks revenue.
  2. EngineerPositioning, messaging architecture, and the identity system. Built to close deals, not win awards.
  3. BuildThe conversion-focused site, shipped with tracking.
  4. LaunchSixty days of post-launch support: measure, adjust, compound.
Diego Luján, founder and creative director

Every phase is directed by our founder, personally.

No account managers, no handoffs to juniors. Strategy and creative direction never leave the principal's desk, with a senior team executing under one unbroken vision.

Where AI fits

AI aids the work. It never steers it.

We use AI. We would be foolish not to. It keeps us on the frontline of what is possible, drafting, testing, clearing the busywork so the thinking gets our full attention.

But it does not steer the ship.

Strategy is ours. The positioning, the judgment, the calls that cost us sleep. Design philosophy is ours. The taste, the restraint, the reason a thing feels inevitable instead of assembled.

A model can generate a thousand directions. It cannot tell you which one is true. That decision belongs to people who have sat across from your buyer, and watched a brand win a room or lose it.

The tools move fast. The hand on the wheel does not. That hand is what you are paying for.

Questions

Asked about this engagement

Why is this where most engagements land?
Because the inflection point rarely breaks one asset at a time. By the time deals are dying on perception, the identity, messaging, and site are usually all carrying the old company. And rebuilding them as one system costs less than patching them separately.
What does the 60 days of launch support cover?
The unglamorous part that makes the rebuild pay: watching real performance data, tightening copy and conversion paths, and adjusting what the launch reveals. You ship with the studio still in the room.
Who actually works on our engagement?
A deliberately small senior team, directed from strategy through launch by our founder. Strategy and creative direction are never delegated. The leverage is in specialists executing under one unbroken vision, not in layers of account management.
Five to six weeks for all of it. How?
Because the drag was never the thinking, it was the production. Modern tooling and AI collapse the build, the boilerplate, and the first drafts, so the calendar goes to strategy and judgment instead of assembly. Nothing in the scope got smaller. The waiting did.
How much of our time does it take?
Founder access for the strategy phase, a handful of working sessions in the first two weeks, then structured checkpoints at each phase gate. The system is designed so decisions get made once, well, instead of relitigated weekly.
How is the fee structured?
Fixed and scoped in writing before the engagement starts: typically half at kickoff and half at launch. No hourly meters, no surprise line items. The number you approve is the number you pay.
What is answer-engine optimization, and why is it included?
Buyers increasingly ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews before they ever run a normal search. Those answers are assembled from sites structured to be readable and citable by machines: clean schema, an llms.txt, direct answers, and clear authorship signals. We build that in on every system, because a brand absent from those answers is invisible to a fast-growing share of its market. Most studios are not doing this yet. That is exactly why it is worth doing now.
What happens after the 60 days?
You own a complete, documented system your team can run. Most clients either graduate to the Fractional CBO arrangement to keep compounding it, or come back per-project. Both are optional, neither is assumed.
