Challenge
Darren's business helps people get from where they are to where they want or need to be, with less time, cost and cognitive load. To share that message more widely, the team had been investing in content and its online presence.
The podcast set-up was causing frustration. Costs were high, production windows were tight, and last-minute changes came with extra charges. The team wanted more content, but the process made it hard to stay flexible.
Solution
Darren started by sharing brand guidelines and examples of past creative, explaining what he liked and what he wanted to change. A briefing call gave our team the context behind the business and its goals. When written feedback felt clunky, he recorded a video instead.
The work grew to cover full podcast edits, reels, brochures and a Christmas message for clients. We also created new scenes with the brand's existing characters, as stills and animations, and made an intro video for his book.
Results
By the time of his testimonial, Darren had 35 completed projects and 15 more requests in the system. He says the business has significantly increased the short-form content it publishes, for the book launch and its wider messaging.
The book creative stood out. After seeing what his publishing company had produced, Darren asked us to develop his ideas further. He preferred our version, especially the intro video, and chose to use it instead.
"Previously, we were limited to the amount of short-form content that we could put out… we've upped that significantly." - Darren

"The value that you add to us enables us to add that value that we want to our clients. The cost is really, really good. The turnaround is really good, and the onboarding was really, really simple. You guys just picked it up. The intro video to the book was head and shoulders above what another organization had done, so I didn't use any of the stuff that they had done and used all of the stuff that you had done. Previously, we were limited to the amount of short-form content that we could put out on social media, so we've upped that significantly. You've completed 35 projects and jobs for us, and we've currently got 15 open with you. And these aren't small-time jobs. These are a mixture of brochures, full podcast edits and reels from those podcast edits. You can't explain what it's like to deal with DesignGuru unless you experience it yourself."
