Feels like:
"everyone has their own version of the brand"
"we still feel like a pre-seed dev tool"
"we have no rules or systems for creative"
"teams are too focused on the day-to-day"
"we can't afford a 120-day full rebrand "

"They brought the incredibly hard-to-find mix of strategic thinking, creativity and excellent stakeholder management skills to our brand visual refresh project.
Thanks to the Sprint Dept, we’re now equipped with a strategic brand toolkit that far better allows us to communicate the value of our product.
Tristan’s experience really shone through in handling challenging, sometimes conflicting feedback from different parts of the business, and it’s down to him that we were able to chart a path to an endpoint that works perfectly for our needs.”

Book a time with the founders below, let's chat.
Who is Sprint Dept NOT built for?
→ Bootstrapped startups in the first 0-2 years of existence → Design agencies who need creative support → Teams that need end-to-end devlopment, deployment and activation
What is a creative sprint designed for?
→ Accelerating brand development and iteration → Creating a workable hypothesis to validate → Sparking conversations with leadership → Fast-tracking visual clarity → Identifying ownable territories → Stress-testing ideas → Non-disruptive creative ideation
What is a creative sprint NOT designed for?
→ 144pg Guidelines and specifications → Detailed market research → Pixel-perfect design files
What if we don’t like the creative direction?
All creativity is sparked from the director workshop together. We’re confident you will.
Are there any refunds?
Due to the high quality and labour intensive nature of the service, we are unable to offer a refund once the project starts.
When is payment taken?
Payments must be taken in full 48 hours before day one of the sprint.
Does a sprint have to last 10 days?
Yes. We’re fast, but we’re not robots. We trust our subconscious to keep working over the weekend, and we believe in the power of fresh eyes on Monday.
Does a sprint have to be a 10 day block?
Yes. We’ve designed our product to maximise creative development. We always begin on a Monday and don’t stop until the following Friday.
How will I receive my design files?
→ On day 10 of the sprint after our meeting, we’ll send a WeTransfer folder containing a logical breakdown of all assets and deliverables + walk-through. → If your company has a specific safety protocol for uploading files, we are happy to accommodate, so long as there isn’t an onboarding process.
What happens next?
Send it. Sleep on it. Stress-test it. Split test it. Discuss internally. Debate privately. Argue. Get excited. Get tactical. Get reassured. We'll have a check-in with you 2 weeks from completion.
