Curious, but have questions? Just keep swimming scrolling. :)

The playbook.

A step-by-step guide of what to expect when you partner with us.

Curious about who you'd be playing with? Meet the Playmaker

Play 01: The Inquiry

Est time: 6 min | Cost: $0 | Channel: Form

Have a question, problem or experience you think you might want to collaborate on? Great! Start by filling out our Experience Inquiry Form. This form is designed to help you outline your experience needs, which will prepare us to be the best possible play partner.

Play 02: Experience Consult

Est time: 45 min | Cost: $0 | Channel: Meeting*

After reviewing your experience inquiry, we'll meet to discuss your experience needs, goals, budget and timeline. We'll answer any questions you have about working with alt-yellow and by the end, we should each have a better understanding of how we might want to work together.

It's worth noting that not every consult will translate into a play partnership. Sometimes the timing won't be right. Sometimes we won't be the best fit. And that's totally okay! The purpose of this meeting is to figure all that out, before we jump into a play contract together.

*This meeting can be virtual (via Zoom) or in-person (in Portland, OR).

Play 03: The Green Light

Est time: 5 min | Cost: 24 trees ($24) | Channel: Email

Following your experience consult, you can expect to receive a full recap via email. You'll then have one week to review and green light the project. In lieu of a project deposit, we ask our lovely clients to make a donation to One Tree Planted to kick off our play partnership. A screenshot of your donation and a signed contract grants us permission to dive in. Thank you for planting trees with us!

Play 04: Ideation Jam

Est time: 2 hrs | Cost: $250-$600 (sliding scale) | Channel: Meeting*

The Ideation Jam is a facilitated, collaborative brainstorming session (think project kick off, but more fun!). This jam is open to you and/or your whole team. We'll take a deep dive into your problem and come up with tons of possible directions to explore. We'll entertain all the what ifs and why nots and eventually identify the 2-3 options we're most excited about.

*This meeting can be virtual (via Zoom) or in-person (in Portland, OR).

Play 05: Direction Alignment

Est time: 5 min | Cost: $0 | Channel: Email

Following our super fun ideation jam, you can expect another juicy recap email, including a polished outline of our 2-3 favorite experience options and links to any assets we cocreated during the jam. You will have 3 days to review, ask questions and confirm the experience direction you want to persue. Then applaud yourself for making a decision. :)

--- THE MESSY MIDDLE ---

Est time: Varies | Cost: Varies | Channel: Varies

This is a placeholder to represent all the work that happens between plays 5 and 6 to bring your unique experience to life. The timeline, meetings and budget for this bit will vary from project to project, but all will include some form of regular check-ins. These will provide us with a dedicated time/space to ask questions, solve problems and ensure we're aligned.

Play 06: Delivery

Est time: Varies | Cost: Varies | Channel: Varies

Delivery of the final experience will look different for each project. Some will involve virtual or live facilitation, others onsite installation, and others a transfer of assets or files. But whatever the end product may be, we will be there with you every step of the way.

Play 07: That's a Wrap

Est time: 6 min | Cost: $0 | Channel: Email

After the final experience and all related assests have been delivered, you can expect to receive one last email from us including your final invoice and a link to our feedback survey. This is an opportunity for you to reflect on your experience working with us as well as an opportunity for us to learn how to be better play partners for future projects.

There may or may not be a secret Play 08...play with us and find out. :)
