understand our process

It may sound familiar, but will feel quite different. Our devotion & dedication to the implementation of these processes are driven by our desire to help you win. If we’re efficient, then you’re up & running sooner & with less headaches than a late night on the beach with a bottle of rum (on second thought, that’s not saying much).

70% success rate increase on projects due to implemented process & yet only 2% of companies do it all the time

We are 100% part of that 2%. Our commitment to process & its constant refinement is what dramatically sets us apart from other creative agencies. We’re proud that our reputation speaks for itself through the incredible amount of referrals & positive testimonials of our clients.

“They’re truly great listeners which make them outstanding ‘artists.’ They’re able to hear beyond, ‘I want a new logo,’ to actually create what an organization needs to tell their story. You can’t go wrong with Heave Ho! Creative – they are careful, creative & detailed with a mix of fun & compassion.”

Discovery
we listen to our client

This discovery & learning phase is vital to our entire process. With seasoned eyes, we look to the horizon for any potential obstacles & opportunities to gain. We determine project scope based on our client’s desires, within the context of budget & timeline.

Course Chart
we plot our ordered steps

This important document is developed to remain 100% transparent & accountable for assets & approvals as needed. Each major component of the project is broken up into four simple to understand legs for our journey. It allows us to stay the course.

Leave Harbor
we pull anchor on our project

You’ll be assigned one point of contact, backed by a smart & speedy crew, pulling together to ensure the sailing is smooth. We navigate through breakwater until we hit the open sea where creative magic begins to take shape. Our process is an adventure meant to be enjoyed.

Open Sea
we hand our client the wheel

Before letting the client take over the helm, all facets of the project are triple checked & signed off by our crew before final approval. The Course Chart was followed with an appropriate amount of flexibility. All assets are delivered. We are on time & on the money.

“Not only are they creative geniuses (& able to read the minds of those who are not creative by nature), but managers of the business side. They created unique artwork for our different clients in a timely manner while juggling multiple vendors at different levels of production & were decisive in the execution. This translated into amazing work that told our client’s stories, efficiently & effectively.”
