1:1 strategy sessions for small teams who deserve a senior design mind at the table, before the decisions get made.
These sessions are working conversations with a senior creative strategist. They are focused entirely on your needs, your questions, and your next move. No sales pitches.
Design strategy session
$275 · 60 minutes · Virtual
You’ll meet with Michelle, our founder and design lead with 25+ years of experience shaping brands for small teams. Good for organizations without senior internal design staff, or for a solo creative on the team who wants an experienced perspective in the room.
We can talk through:
- An honest audit of your current visual presence.
- Ideas for an annual design theme.
- Planning design needs across the year.
- New efforts with a design component: events, fundraising collateral, program materials. We’ll explore approach, timing, and rough budget together.
Website strategy session
$275 · 60 minutes · Virtual
You’ll meet with Seth, our website strategist with 20+ years of experience architecting nonprofit websites. Good for organizations without a dedicated website strategist, or a team of one managing a site. If your website isn’t working as hard as your organization, this is where to start.
We can talk through:
- What’s not working and why.
- Technology options and what makes sense for your situation.
- Priorities, timing, and budget for a redesign.
- Unmet needs your current site isn’t addressing.
- Website strategy overall: what your site should be doing for you.
Who you’ll be talking with

Seth Giammanco
Principal, website strategist
Seth has spent over 20 years helping nonprofits build websites that connect people to the heart of their mission. He’s worked with groups like the Coast Guard Foundation, EmbraceRace, and WeRobotics.
What happens after your session
Within 48 hours, you’ll receive a short written summary with action steps. This is yours to keep and act on. If you want more help in the future you can book another session or reach out if you would like to work with us as your design team.
Why we offer these
Teams doing big things rarely have a dedicated design mind at the table when decisions get made. Before a redesign is scoped, before a gala is planned, before a new program launches. This is the moment when good thinking matters most.
In our ongoing partnerships, this kind of conversation happens naturally and regularly. We’re in the room early, before anyone is ready to execute, helping our clients think through design value, cost, timing, and return. These sessions extend that access to organizations who aren’t yet in a partnership with us, or who simply need a single conversation to move forward with confidence.
