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

Wow-How helped produce a company presentation video, explaining our products and services. The video will be used online and on fairs and has already been very well recieved. 

Waltero's W-sensor is a fairly complex and very versitile product which can be used to digitalize anything visible - this means that it can be used for many different use cases, and as such that explaining the product is tricky. Wow-How was very helpful in both creating the messaging and the final video - we are very happy with the result!  

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The project was concuded on a very tight timeline and with great results - the video came out great and in time to be used for our booth at the Singapore Water Week fair. 

The price performance of Wow-How is fantastic, and the team was extremely professional and easy to work with. Despite it being a relatively tricky project on a limited budget and a very tough deadline, the team pulled through to deliver a fantastic result. 

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

The project team was very responsive and easy to work with. We set up a Slack channel and work documents on google drive which allowed for fast, asynchronous communications - great for creative work. Despite the tight deadline, I felt secure in the delivery schedule and quality throughout the project.
