As the founder of my company, I am well aware of the many issues that come with running a small business. And today those challenges are amplified for startups with the unprecedented situation we find ourselves in. It’s forcing business owners and CEOs to plan differently, stretch capital and sometimes make aggressive strategy decisions in order to survive.
We started 15 Finches, our startup-focused creative studio, a year and a half ago after seeing the most common issues that startups face on an ongoing basis – namely needing a lot of great branding, marketing, strategy, website design, development, UI/UX work done, while having limited cash to pay for the work and always having new challenges as the company evolves. We created our unique long-term partnership model in order to offer the best early-stage businesses access to an array of services over time, adjusting to ever-changing needs while minimizing the burn rate.
In short, we help our startup partners focus on the thing that matters most - keeping cash in the bank while delivering world-class creative services. And with an appropriate exchange of equity, we create a long-term, incentivized partnership where we become an important and necessary extension of your team. Having worked with many startups before, we found this to be a very beneficial relationship built on constant alignment and harmonized goals.
Now more than ever we are looking to partner with startups, to provide the various services, support and strategy needed to navigate the coming months, while balancing the necessary long-term focus to adapt and thrive for the future. If you're interested in learning more about what we're doing at 15 Finches, please feel free to reach out or check out our website at 15finches.com.
Best of luck to everyone during these precarious times - stay safe and keep grinding!
