A standing block of senior design capacity every month. The work that keeps a system alive: campaigns, decks, social, landing pages, event material, and the hundred small assets that quietly undo a rebrand when nobody is watching them.
We agree what a month looks like: the recurring work, the typical one-offs, and roughly what fits. Priced as capacity rather than per asset, because per-asset pricing makes everyone argue about scope instead of quality.
A standing intake, a weekly working rhythm, and a shared queue you can see. You reprioritize whenever you need to; we tell you honestly what moves out when something moves in.
Anything new gets built into the system rather than beside it. Six months in you should have more components, not more one-offs.
Every three months we look at what the block was actually spent on. Sometimes the answer is to resize it, and sometimes it is that you now need a hire and we should help you make it.
A retainer is capacity, not an unlimited queue. Unused hours do not roll forward indefinitely, and a month that needs three times the block is a project, which we will scope separately rather than quietly do badly.
Tell us the shape of the problem and we will tell you honestly whether the Monthly Retainer is the right answer to it. We reply within two business days.
Prefer email? hello@ambolt.co. If we are not the right studio for this, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
A block is capacity, not a per-asset menu. Priced so nobody spends the month arguing about scope instead of quality.
How the hours work. Fixed-price engagements are scoped at a blended $100 an hour; fractional creative direction is scoped at $145 an hour, because it is senior time rather than production. The hours above are what the price is built from. We track against them and tell you where we are, and if a scope change pushes past the block we say so before the work happens rather than after.
Companies leave here looking like one company again. The same voice on the site, the deck, the ad, and the booth. Every quarter you wait is another quarter of good work going out under a brand that undersells it.
