Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Takt began with in-depth brand research and competitive analysis to help define our positioning and identify future opportunities. Through a series of collaborative workshops, we explored brand direction and potential design concepts. This phase resulted in two key deliverables: a Brand Equity Insights report summarizing findings and recommendations, and a Brand Rollout + Launch Strategy—a tactical roadmap to guide the unified launch of our two brands.

From there, we moved into a focused design and messaging phase, where we refined our brand identities and developed key messaging to support our new direction.

The final phase brought these refreshed identities to life through the development of two new websites, along with the supporting collateral needed to consistently execute across channels and touchpoints.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Overall, we were very pleased with the branding and website deliverables.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We started the process with Takt with in-depth brand research and competitive analysis to help us clarify our positioning and uncover opportunities for growth. Through a series of collaborative workshops, we explored everything from website design direction to content strategy and calls-to-action.

By the time we entered the design phase, it felt like we were already aligned. The process became more about refinement—tweaking visuals, messaging, and functionality while considering the technical and UX requirements that would best serve our users. Being based in Vancouver, we had the benefit of conducting our workshops in person, which made the sessions even more engaging, hands-on, and collaborative.

The project wrapped with a full development phase and the launch of a new website that finally feels like a true digital expression of who we are and the clients we’re here to serve.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

I'm writing this reveiw now after final delivery of the website. Takt has been great since the hand-off of the new website and has been there for us in terms of education on how everything works, where to find things and quickly fixing the odd bug that has come up. 

Measurable outcomes - the website is done and it works.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

We had a weekly, in-person meeting cadance with their team. There was a project manager assigned to us who kept everything moving forward, ensured we had all the communication we needed and ensured we were giving Takt all of the assets and content they needed to complete work on their end.

We had a project plan & timeline laid out from the beginning and we actually came in ahead of schedule. Throughout the term, Takt was very responsive - emails were often replied to same-day or else next day.

• In-Person Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

We had gone through their previous portfolio work and saw some sites in there that we really liked and that showed Takt understood our industry and companies like ours. They do a really good job and are creative while still keeping to budget and deliverables. I'm really happy with the site, the style, the development and the final product. 

Are there any areas for improvement or something Takt could have done differently?

I think they did a really good job. Our new site development was a big project for us and we're really happy we chose them to work with in terms of the logistics of working with them week-to-week and in terms of the actual deliverables.

Takt began with in-depth stakeholder interviews and competitive analysis to fully capture the unique essence of TKS. This process also involved workshops that dug deeper into our design needs + desires, and identifying which content would be most useful to current and prospective students.

The design phase introduced subtle animations inspired by TKS’s teaching techniques, adding depth and movement to the user experience. Takt also refreshed our original brand colors, making them more balanced and approachable while staying true to our identity. Collaborative wireframing and prototyping ensured every element aligned with our vision before launch.

Their team has also taken us through an in-depth quality assurance experience and testing performance, accessibility, and functionality across all devices. The result is a visually engaging, user-friendly website that authentically represents TKS and its values.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The website has been optimized for user experience, helping students on their application journey. It is much more readable and has eye-catching imagery and colors.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Massive began by leading stakeholder interviews and competitive analysis to better understand WMN and our environment. These steps helped us uncover key content, design, and functionality needs while showing a need for originality amongst our competitors. This discovery gave us the opportunity to build a website that truly stood out.

During the design phase, Massive worked closely with us to develop custom wireframes and presented three unique homepage concepts with fully fleshed-out animations. This collaborative approach ensured that every element, from content to design, was aligned with our vision. Once the design was finalized, we integrated it with the wireframes and created a working prototype for us to experience before we launched it.

On the technical side, they developed a custom audio player module that offered a branded and immersive listening experience, which is something that really lets us stand out against competitors using third-party media players. They then moved into QA testing to ensure the site’s performance, accessibility, and functionality across all devices. The result is a website that engaging, fully accessible website and one we feel really represents who we are. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Massive was an integral part of our repositioning as a creative agency. They provided the project manangement, design and back end support to build us a new web presence which positioniend our work in a dynamic and engaging way. This is something that we couldn't have accomplished on our own. Increased web traffic resulted from launching a more robust site, and the engaging design kept visitors longer than before.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Massive was incredibly organized,  communicative and thoughtful in their work. Not only were they enthusiastic when the project ran smoothly, but when we raised concerns about product and timeline, they maintained an open, collaborative approach and worked with us to find solutions.

The set up tools seem potentially useful, but didn't seem to be utlitized for the length of the project in a way that maximized their abilities.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

As a leading Canadian technology company, we have extensive expertise in our field but needed help ensuring that our production method, approach, and impact was resonating clearly with a diverse global audience. We worked with Massive to help craft a clear narrative and create a compelling online experience.

The steps included were:

1. Research and Discovery 
2. Solution Design
3. Web Development + Implementation

Massive began with an in-depth Research + Discovery process where they learned about our business, customers, industry, operations, and technical requirements. This stage involved interactive workshops, user interviews, competitive discovery, and presentations to discover what style and design we were looking for. 

From there, Massive’s team planned our website’s content and information architecture structure, user needs, and technical plan. These translated to high-fidelity prototypes that later became the backbone for the new website's UI and visual design.

Massive's developers began server-side setup and backend development, integrating custom-built components. From there Massive worked on front-end development alongside HTML, CSS, and Javascript components, on-page SEO implementation and Google tracking installation. Then came testing and quality assurance.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our goal was to increase security, engagement, and global load speed and also to ensure our message was clear and concise. We have successfully achieved this with their help. We can see this by analyzing clickstream data but have also received tremendous positive feedback through various in-person conversations. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

They set out a clear roadmap at the start of the project which they allowed us to collaborate on to ensure our timelines were aligned and realistic. Throughout the process, they continued this collaborative nature and were unbelievably flexible, professional, and clear. While they guided us to the finish line they also were unbelievably understanding of changes to our timelines. They truly worked with us as partner, providing insight and guidance while being respectful of the input of our team.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

It’s a lot of pressure to decide on a marketing agency for your company. These are my top 3 reasons why I love working with Massive and think you should too!

1. Change leaders: Impactful, thoughtful, long-lasting change and buy-in. They know how to navigate within the organization to bring about long-lasting, meaningful change. They do this through true inclusion of stakeholders and securing real buy-in. That makes the change last and resonate long after the project is complete.
2. True partnership: They don’t just listen; they truly understand and hear you. I was really impressed with their ability to join group meetings and help us articulate our pain points while offering a solution. They were never prescriptive—never made it feel like it’s us and them—it feels like they’re an extension of our internal team.
3. Pros in every aspect of the field. Not only do they come equipped with full-fledged marketing prowess—including copywriters, designers, web developers, brand specialists, videographers, developers, storytellers, strategists—but they also never made our internal comms team feel lesser. In fact, it suddenly felt like we had a large corporation’s Marketing and Comms team!

Are there any areas for improvement or something Massive Media could have done differently?

No. They were really great to work with, positive attitudes and great communication and follow through.

The designs were presented to us through Figma so we could get an idea of how the website would look across desktop and mobile.

The scope of the work entailed a comprehensive rebrand of our corporate identity. We updated our brand positioning within the market place and worked with Massive Media in order to significantly improve or messaging, appeal and branding to appeal to a targeted set of customers. They interviewed clients and prospective clients in order to ensure that we had all the data necessary to improve.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The branding work now sets us apart from our competitors. Prior to the rebrand we were receiving feedback from clients and partners that our branding didn't reflect the sophisticated nature of our work and that it was holding us back from landing certain clients. Since the rebrand, we've eliminated this barrier and anticipate a faster growth trajectory.

There's a big difference between quality service and quality work. They nailed both aspects. They provided regular and timely touchpoints on the updates to ensure we were on track and kept the feedback loops short and were able to deliver the products on time and on budget

Great thought leadership - between UI/UX best practices, design and development skills, and project management. It's clear this team is great at what they do in the way they can clearly communicate expectations, take feedback and direction, and deliver on what was promised.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Massive Media could have done differently?

Everything was excellent. Towards the end of the project, we had less touchpoints (as everything was in development) so it's the only time we ever felt a little unsure of what to expect...but that has more to do with past, negative experiences with other agencies and less about what Massive was able to deliver for us.
