What problem are you trying to solve?

Every business has its own issues they're trying to solve. But generally, there are some big ones that always crop up. And good communication affects them all.

Make customers happier

Good communication helps build relationships with your customers and improves how satisfied they'll be with your business.

Get more responses

The Behavioural Insights Team found that just making letters easier to understand “often results in a 5% to 10% increase in response rates.”

Soften bad news

Being empathetic can help soften the blow of bad news and lead to better outcomes. In fact, even in the medical industry, good communication can avoid court cases and lead to 90% satisfaction rates on both sides.

Change your culture

Your tone of voice is a practical way to embed your values into everything you do. And can even help ease your people into big changes in how your business runs.

Save cold hard cash

Every second your support team is on a call has a literal cost. If you can cut down the number of calls or shorten them, you can literally cut your costs. And it's not just support. Good communication can lead directly to savings across your business.

Inspire the best people

In practically every industry, there's a shortage of good, reliable, and skilled people. So if you want to attract them to join you, you need to inspire them. You need to appeal to their hearts, not just their minds.

Whatever it is, we can help

We bridge the gap between what’s happening and what you intended to happen by starting with your communication.

Typically, we help with four main areas.

Marketing:
Engage your customers

Figure out your customer personas, strategy, content calendar, customer journey, campaigns, and messaging frameworks.

Brand:
Stand out from competitors

Develop your tone of voice, visual identity, personality, brand principles, purpose, values, narrative, and brand frameworks.

Customer experience:
Keep customers returning

Sort out your customer journey, customer support, and user experience.

Internal comms:
Attract and keep talent

Fix problems with your internal brand, transformation projects, culture, and onboarding processes.

Sort out your foundations

Are you looking for advice on something specific? We can help you figure out the key elements of your business.

Tone of voice

Show off your brand through your words and stay consistent across your business.

Visual identity

Come up with how you want your brand to look and feel, from your logo to your photography style.

Core values

Define exactly what's most important to your brand and what underlies your approach.

Brand purpose

Decide what makes your brand different from everyone else. Your mission, your vision, and your ultimate purpose.

Marketing strategy

Figure out exactly how to approach your customers and your plan of attack.

Customer journey

Map out how customers interact with your business and what you want to do at every step.

Customer support

Gather together all the information you need to make sure you're answering the right questions.

User experience

Make sure that your interfaces and websites feel intuitive and natural for the everyday person.

Onboarding process

Discovering your problems

While every business is different, there are typically three stages to figuring out what's going on with your business.

1

Review the lay of the land

We’ll check your writing and design, see what your competitors are doing, and look for themes and trends. What are you doing well? What should you be doing? And what do you customers expect?
2

Fill our heads

We’ll pull all the information we can out of your heads. Usually, we'll run workshops to understand your customers, your competitors, and your culture. What’s your overall strategy and goal? What problems are you facing? And what have you already tried?

Once we've got everything we need, we’ll come back with our recommendations for what you could do to fix your problems.

They’ve helped with almost everything: revamping our website, defining our messaging, producing content, setting up webinars and game jams, creating presentations, tidying up our docs – they’re just there when we need them. I couldn’t recommend them more.

Andrew Walker

Head of Business Development at Gameye

Working with Avapond has been a game-changer for us. Their efficiency and reliability, coupled with strategic thinking and exceptional transparency, set them apart. It's refreshing to work with an agency that focuses on delivering results, not upselling.

Chay Hunter

Product Growth Leader

We worked with Avapond during our rebrand project, and it was a fantastic experience. They came up with the perfect name and developed a tone of voice that truly represents us. Their professional and friendly team made the whole process enjoyable and effective. Highly recommend them!

Ivan Bravo

Founder at Tinker Makes Perfect

I’ve worked with (and for) Lewis for years. And there’s one thing in his repertoire that I’ve always tried to emulate: he sets high standards, for himself and others, and doesn’t compromise on them.

Matt Phil Carver

Freelance Writer

Sarah brings creative thinking to the table in everything she does. Works fantastically well on a brief, and understands what you want to achieve even before you do. More importantly, she is dedicated to delivering a high standard.

Diana Abu-Ziater

Marketing Professional

Lewis was instrumental in getting us off the ground. He offered a flexible approach to working with us as a consulting editor, suggesting post topics, a tone of voice, a writing brief and sourcing writers which worked really well.
