We work with ambitious businesses across all sectors, from professional services and financial organisations to retailers, manufacturers, and technology companies. Whether you're a start-up finding your feet or an established business looking to scale, we tailor our approach to your specific needs and market position.

Investment varies significantly based on scope, complexity, and your specific requirements. A straightforward website redesign might start from £8,000-£15,000, whilst a comprehensive rebrand with full digital implementation could range from £25,000-£50,000+. Marketing retainers typically start from £1,500 per month.

We always provide transparent, detailed proposals so you know exactly what you're investing in and what outcomes to expect. We're also happy to discuss projects in phases if budget needs to be spread over time.

Timelines depend on project scope and complexity:
Website design & build: 8-12 weeks
Brand development: 6-10 weeks
Marketing campaigns: Ongoing, with initial setup 2-4 weeks
Smaller projects: 2-6 weeks
We'll always provide a detailed timeline during our planning phase, and we're transparent about any dependencies that might affect delivery. Rush projects can sometimes be accommodated, just ask.

Absolutely. In fact, we recommend it. Digital assets perform best when they're actively maintained, optimised, and evolved based on performance data. We offer flexible ongoing support packages covering everything from basic maintenance and updates to comprehensive digital strategy and marketing management.

Most of our clients continue working with us on a retained basis after their initial project, which allows us to continually refine and improve their digital performance.

A few things set us apart:
We're part of the Ballards group - This means we understand professional services, compliance, and the importance of building trust through your digital presence. We're not just suppliers, we're part of your extended team.
Commercial focus - We're measured by results, not just creative awards. Every project is built with clear commercial objectives and ROI in mind.

No rigid rules - We adapt our approach to your needs rather than forcing you into our process. Flexibility and pragmatism are core to how we work.
Genuine partnership - We're invested in your success. Many of our client relationships span years because we become trusted advisors, not just project deliverers.

Definitely. We regularly collaborate with in-house marketing teams, other agencies, freelancers, and specialist suppliers. We're comfortable being the lead agency or playing a supporting role, whatever makes most sense for your project and business. If you already have developers, designers, or marketers, we're happy to complement their work rather than replace it.

We're completely flexible. We love welcoming clients to our Northamptonshire studio (it's a lovely space and the coffee's always on), but we're equally comfortable working remotely or meeting at your offices. Many of our clients are spread across the UK and internationally, so we're well set up for virtual collaboration.

For kickoff meetings and key strategy sessions, we do recommend meeting face-to-face where possible as there's something about being in the same room that sparks better ideas, but we make whatever works best for you.

Simple. Drop us an email at info@creativefolks.co.uk or give us a call. We'll arrange an initial conversation (no sales pressure, we promise) to understand your business, objectives, and challenges. If there's a good fit, we'll put together a tailored proposal outlining our recommended approach, timeline, and investment.

From there, if you're happy to proceed, we'll get you booked in and start the project. Most projects begin within 2-4 weeks of agreement, depending on our schedule and your readiness.

Still got questions? Just ask. We're always happy to chat through anything that's not covered here.
