Strategy
The thinking that shapes everything that follows.
Why it matters
The bit that helps us get the rest right.
A good excuse to get properly curious. We dig into the business, its audience, the competition and where there’s room to do something interesting. It’s a chance to ask questions, challenge a few assumptions and get everyone on the same page.
Brand Strategy
Finding the sweet spot.
We use strategy to find what’s worth building the brand around. By getting clear on the business, its audience and where the opportunity lies, we can make better creative decisions from the start.
Content Strategy
A voice people know when they hear it.
What you say is one thing. How you say it can make all the difference. We get to know what matters to your audience, then find the messages, language and voice that make the brand worth listening to.
Digital Strategy
Making sense of what goes where.
A good website should feel simple, even when there’s plenty going on behind it. We work out what people need to find, how they’ll move through it and how everything should fit together before we start designing the experience.
FAQs
A few things you may want to know.
What does a strategy engagement with Four Stripes involve?
Usually a workshop with the people who make decisions, a short round of interviews or research where it helps, and a written summary: positioning, audiences, key messages and tone. It sets up the brand and web work. Some clients stop there and use it internally.
Do we need strategy before brand or web work?
Not always. If the business already knows what it stands for and who it serves, we can start from that. Where it is unclear, doing the thinking first is cheaper than redoing the design.
How long does it take?
Typically two to four weeks, depending on how many people need to be involved.
Brand
We don’t stop at a good-looking identity. We think through how the brand lives, making sure every part feels considered, works together and is ready for wherever you take it.
Digital
We design and build every site ourselves in Webflow, thinking through the creative, the user experience and what’s happening behind the scenes, so it works just as well after handover as it does on launch day.
Design
Whatever you need to put out into the world, we can help bring it together, from print and publications to digital, campaigns, content and everything around them.
