While I occasionally work directly with website owners, I primarily partner with amazing graphic designers, marketing/advertising agencies, and web developers (programmers) to bring their clients’ websites up to the next level of effectiveness.
Why do my partners work with me? Because life’s too short to do the stuff you’re only “okay” at, and my partners agree. I want you to focus on what you’re AMAZING at, which is why I don’t design, code, or “market” – I leave that to the real experts (aka, my clients).
Agencies
Agencies need to be effective – period. Everything marketing and advertising agencies do for their clients is focused on helping them achieve their goals and promote their brands in the most effective way possible. But to do that, you need to focus on what you do best and not have to worry about stuff like usability testing, information architecture and user experience design. That’s why Clever Cubed is here.
You know: Your client’s needs & goals, how to promote their brand, how to create a message that targets the right people.
I know: What makes a site effective, what’s possible on the web, how to structure tons of data, which tool is right for the job.
Together: I work with your team (designers, copywriters, etc.) BEFORE the site is designed and built to create a blueprint for a website that will be useful, usable, and valuable. Then I step back and let you do what you do best: craft an impressive design and message. An existing site need tweaks? I'll do all the testing for you and figure out the next steps.
End Result: An effective website that nails your client’s goals, best conveys their message, and makes them love you even more.
Designers want to design – I make it so that’s all they have to do. Graphic designers these days feel like they have to learn it all when it comes to the web: html, css, content management, blah blah blah. How many times have you said, “I just want to DESIGN!”? Enter Clever Cubed.
You know: How to make it graphically appealing and effective.
I know: How the web works, what’s possible, what’s not, and how people interact with it.
Together: I develop a blueprint of a site (BEFORE the design) that will meet your client’s needs (functionally and technically), then you do what you do best – make it look awesome. Need help beyond that? I can even deal with the “geeks” on your behalf to get the site built out and delivered to the client.
End result: A better, more effective website, a happier client, and a happier designer.
Code is poetry – I let you write it. No web developer or programmer wants to deal with the drawn-out back-and-forth with clients and designers only to receive something that (a) is a pain in the butt to slice and code, or (b) totally ignores technical requirements. Don’t even get me started on “scope creep.” You need to do what you do best: write beautiful code that works like a charm. Clever Cube’s goal is to remove the obstacles and let you do just that.
You know: Clean, semantic code, what’s possible on the web, what’s not, and how to make the thing work.
I know: How people interact with the web, what makes a site work (technically), how to deal with designers.
Together: I can work with the designer to ensure that what you receive from them will be easy to slice and implement on your platform (not to mention effective and usable), and that the scope and requirements will be on target. Don’t want to get stuck managing the whole project? I can help there, too.
End Result: A website whose design and code flow seamlessly, a happier client, and a happier developer.
