Flexible corporate sites

We transform clunky corporate sites into flexible platforms which make it easy for small, busy teams to publish, campaign, discuss or inspire

Platforms for digital engagement

We helped the Prime Minister and FCO stimulate debate around the Nordic Baltic summit using low-cost tools, deployed quickly and elegantly.

The Social Simulator

How would you deal with a social media crisis? Our new social media simulator combines hands-on experience with credible scenarios to develop the skills your team needs.

Embrace the shoestring

Tight budgets but the expectation of 'digital by default'? We've got ideas, tools and coaching to help you to deliver great stuff cheaply.

What we do

Good value digital innovation means being creative, flexible and honest. We’re big believers in starting small, experimenting sensibly and sharing openly.

Ideas

We can help with digital strategies, audits and reviews, helping you think through your goals, gathering insight into your audiences, and coming up with workable plans

Tools

We love to build great web software – social media prototypes, consultation platforms, corporate sites or online communities using open source technologies, especially WordPress

Skills

We coach and train people to use digital communications and the social web more effectively, whether that’s in terms of tools, strategies or techniques

Platforms

We’re creating some of our own platforms and services, including our fast-turnaround online document publishing and feedback service Read+Comment, our training and stress-testing Social Simulator to practice social media skills in crisis scenarios, and our digital dashboards, helping you monitor your digital channels and engagement at a glance

Recent work

We build things, train people and offer strategic advice. Here’s a flavour of the work we’ve done recently:

A flexible corporate site for Manufacturing Insight
We built a clean, flexible site focussed on its audience’s needs for this new campaigning organisation.

A reusable consultation platform for BIS
We gave a non-technical team the ability to deploy interactive microsites for partners and consultations in-house at zero marginal cost.

Intermediate WordPress training for DCMS
We trained the IT and digital communications team to take WordPress to the next level for their blogs and transparency data publishing

A site audit against government standards for FCO
We tested the FCO’s site for compliance with government findability, archiving, design and accessibility policies
