designing for early-stage startups is less about design than you’d think:
this applies to product, web, and brand design btw.
1. solve the actual problem, not the one the brief describes, because 90% of the time you don't get one
2. most founders often don't know what they need, figuring that out is the job
3. every project is a chance to create impact, i wouldn't have it any other way
4. clarity above everything else. if it's not clear it wouldn't move the needle in terms of business outcomes

A new case study shouldn't need a new build.
Every project on The Offsite Agency's site runs on one template, so adding work is just content. Visitors grew six times in under eight weeks after the new site launched.
Designed by The Offsite Agency, built by Displace. Full case study on our profile.
How much of your work never made it onto your site?
Nice work!!
Every SaaS launch video runs on the same skeleton: a hook, the product reveal, three benefits, a call to action.
So I built that skeleton once. SaaS Product is a 10-second, four-scene promo template for any digital product.
Nimble, a productivity app. HalalFX, a Premiere plugin. Lengw, a language-learning app. Three brands, one animation, nothing re-keyframed.
What you edit:
Every line of copy is live text, not outlines
The product screenshot and each logo sit in their own layers, sized to be swapped
Every editable layer is named "Edit …" so you know what is safe to touch
The motion stays exactly the same
Best for landing pages, product launches and social ads.
