The filter

Built for one specific gap

This is your engagement if

You know something is off, deals stall, pricing gets pushed, the site undersells the work, but you can't see which gap is doing the damage.

It isn't if

You already know the gap and want it fixed, not diagnosed. Start at the engagement that closes it instead.

How it works

3–5 business days, 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. BookSend the inquiry with your site and a few sentences on what feels off.
  2. AuditWe go through your brand the way a skeptical buyer would. Positioning, messaging, surfaces, follow-through.
  3. DeliveryWithin three to five business days you receive the written diagnostic and a ranked plan.
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

What exactly do I receive?
A written diagnostic: where your brand is creating friction in the revenue cycle, what each gap is likely costing you, and a ranked fix-first plan. It stands alone. You can act on it with or without us.
Why is it only $749?
Because it is the front door, not the product. It de-risks the decision on both sides: you see exactly how the studio thinks before committing to a $6,000–$22,000 engagement, and we only take on work the diagnostic actually justifies.
How fast does it start?
Every inquiry is read personally by our founder and answered within two business days. The audit itself is delivered three to five business days after kickoff.
Who actually does the audit?
Diego Luján, our founder and the author of Revenue-Engineered Branding™, runs the diagnostic personally. The same senior judgment that leads every engagement, not a junior with a checklist.
What if the audit says we don't need you?
Then that is what it says. Roughly a third of audits end in "fix these two things yourselves and come back in a year." The audit is only worth $749 if the recommendation is honest.
Does the fee count toward a larger engagement?
Yes. If you move into any engagement within 60 days, the full $749 is credited against it. The diagnostic becomes the first phase of the work rather than a separate cost.
