Just when you think you're actually quite quiet, a whole load of things come along at once. So many of our Monday morning meetings consist of discussing how to generate more business, and then by the end of the week we're overloaded with work. It's a mystery where it all comes from.

In these days of digital interactivity, everything overlaps. It's no longer the case that you might have one designer for digital and one for print. We have ended up taking more and more responsiobility for things like websites, email marketing, and hosting. Not the obvious sort of thing you might think of when you brief a design agency.

Truth be told we don't exactly love providing these services, in fact it makes our hair stand on end, particularly Christian who hates the flaky intangibility of all things web.  However, we're actually pretty good at it.  Perhaps its Christian's lack of confidence and fear of failure, combined with Scott's gung-ho enthusiasm.

Sometimes it feels that, to get the right design, you need to spend hours eliminating what seems like potentially better but impossible alternatives. Then, you wonder how you managed to spend 8 hours just adding a bit of text to an existing advertisement.
