Commission

The Full Brand DNA Intake.

The deep version. Every answer becomes the first draft of your voice dossier.

This intake is longer than a standard sign-up because the answers are not just a ticket in a queue. If you answer carefully, we will have a real head start on the brand DNA session. Take your time. Every commission is read personally, and stays between us.

Before You Begin

Hello. Thank you for continuing.

This intake is longer than a standard sign-up because the answers are not just a ticket in a queue. They become the first draft of the voice dossier your luminaries will be trained on. If you answer carefully, we will have a real head start on the brand DNA session. If you answer casually, we will end up reworking everything once we speak, which is fine, but it will take longer.

Every answer is read personally by a member of our team. The only people who ever see your answers are the specific members of the maison team who need them to write your dossier.

Take your time.

We do not need an exact number. A range helps us understand what stage you are at.

What words would you use to describe how your brand sounds when it is at its best? Not adjectives from a marketing deck — real words you would use in conversation.

What words does your brand avoid? What language makes you wince when you see it in your category?

Not the features. The underlying thing that separates your brand from every other brand in your category.

The current stack. We want to understand what you already have so we can integrate with it instead of replacing it.

Where is the biggest fire? Where do you feel like you are drowning most?

This is the question the whole commission turns on. Answer carefully. There is no wrong answer, but a thoughtful answer will tell us everything about what the maison should do for you.

What has been on your list for months or years that you know you should be doing but have not been able to make room for?

Optional.
