So you want to hire someone creative. Someone with "taste." 

But how exactly do you do that?

You could send LinkedIn messages to designers from Linear and writers from Stripe. But that probably won't work. It probably also won't lead to actually great outcomes... You want a style of your own.

Another option is to post a role with us and let us connect you with someone great.

Why would I do that?

Because we have a network of personally vetted writers, designers, engineers, and creative directors. People who can help you design a website, write a manifesto, create a really good slide deck, build a brand that stands out - creative people.

We can help you hire one of those people.

These are not fancy bureaucratic agencies. Just talented individuals you can work with directly. People who actually get stuff done (and fast).

And what makes you qualified to vet these people?

We aren't sure, but if you like our taste (in, for example, the writing on our blog or our projects), then you'd probably like our judgement.

(Companies like Stripe, Flighty, Meter, Increase, and many others have too!)

How do I work with you? What does 'working with you' even mean?

(1) You fill out this short form with information about what you're looking for. It could be part-time or full-time. It's okay if you don't know exactly what you are looking for.

(2) We respond quickly letting you know whether or not we're a good fit to help you.

(3) We personally contact talent in our network that could be a good fit.

(4) We share a list of recommendations with you and make introductions.

Does it cost money?

You can post a role for free. If you end up making a hire because of us, we charge a placement fee: 25% of the first year's salary. (If part-time, 25% of whatever you pay them over the first 12 months.)

Wait, why don't you just share me your full list of talent so I can contact them directly?

That could certainly make this easier. But a big part of how this whole shebang works is that we promise talent we'll protect their time and only contact them with relevant and interesting opportunities. These people get so much spam; they trust us to be a filter.

Why are you doing this?

Everyone is talking about creativity and taste. But what do they have to show for it? Most companies look and sound the same. We know a lot of talented creative people, and we know a lot of companies looking to hire. We think making some connections might be valuable.
