Select any of these to find out how we’ve helped our clients achieve change by creating powerful, engaging, digital learning solutions.

OUR MANIFESTO

01 BE INDUSTRY TROUBLEMAKERS

2020 marks our 17th year of pushing boundaries, doing things differently and questioning the status quo.

 

02 SEE PEOPLE NOT NUMBERS

Behavioural change starts with engagement, and for that you need emotional connection.

 

03 PUT LOVE IN YOUR WORK

Our passion for what we do is what sets us apart – we always go the extra mile.

 

04 DON’T BE BORING

There’s a difference between delivering content and achieving change.

 

05 ON TIME, ON BUDGET

Each project is managed using Smartsheets, shared with you to ensure we’re all working to the same plan. 

We’ll also work together to get the best possible content for your budget – no matter how big or small.

 

06 INNOVATE WITH PURPOSE

Research and development has always been at the heart of our business, but just because something is possible, doesn’t always mean it’s right for you. We’ll work together to find the perfect solution for your people.

 

07 MAKE KICK-ASS CONTENT

Settling for good instead of great makes everything you do OK, but never extraordinary. That’s not enough for us and shouldn’t be enough for you.

HOW WE DO IT

The secret to our success is the passion of our multi-skilled in-house team (from copywriting and instructional design to coding and animation) and our experience of working with a wide range of international brands. We also have our own in-house production and studio facilities: so if you can imagine it, we can create it, from content to platforms and so much more.

 

We really love working with clients who are as passionate as we are about their content, their brand, the learning experience and about creating a great solution. Now more than ever before, there is a need for a more blended experience and although budgets are getting tighter and tighter, you don’t have to settle for average.

 

Our internationally-renowned team take huge pride in their work, always looking at new and innovative ways to reach your audiences – the feedback we receive from our clients is testament to this.

 

Badly designed content doesn’t just impact on the effectiveness of your message, it is damaging to your reputation, and to your brand.
