HOW WE REPORT OUR WORK

Honest evidence, clearly labelled.

Portfolios often blur what was shipped, what is underway and what is only a mock-up. Ours separates them.

  • Completed means shipped

    Work is marked complete only when it runs in the real business, not in a demo.

  • In progress says so

    Unfinished work is shown as unfinished, alongside what still needs to happen.

  • Illustrative is labelled

    Demonstrations use synthetic data, marked on the page, until a client approves real figures.

  • Outcomes need evidence

    No revenue, conversion or growth claims without before-and-after evidence the client has agreed to share.
