Pressure to improve results, enhance client loyalty, and meet specialized requirements—all while managing business with shrinking budgets—often leaves companies without the experienced, cost-effective resources they need to make data-driven decisions and achieve their performance goals.
Enterprises need a better approach to business and legal support services—one where experienced, multi-disciplinary leaders deliver long-term solutions to clients.
The elements of success.
The Extend team delivers results using a thoughtful set of elements that serve as the foundation for every project.
Problems? Creatively solved.
We are problem solvers at heart and believe in the concept of Value by Design. Bob Greenberg’s Ten Principles of Design* have inspired our approach to creating, transforming, and elevating our own organization and serves as guiding principles in how we deliver value and achieve results for our clients.
Leave the business model unfinished
Leave the business model unfinished
Technology will never stop disrupting everything in its path. That’s why it’s best to be “eighty percent finished.” With every transition, there will be new capabilities to build and legacy parts to leave behind. Never stop changing and applying your principles in new ways.
Simpler is better
Simpler is better
When you reduce an idea to its most essential form, you make complicated things understandable, useful, and effortless. Today, there’s more complexity than ever—and simplicity has never been more important.
Stories and systems need each other
Stories and systems need each other
There are two kinds of creativity—and two types of creative people—that are equally important in an era defined by technology. The collision of systematic thinking and storytelling is the secret behind the best work, whether it’s a campaign idea or
a connected product.
Let creativity drive the business
Let creativity drive the business
The quality of ideas, and the excellence of what is made, should drive a business, not the other way around. Never stop challenging yourself and learning from others.
The whole team is bigger than its parts
The whole team is bigger than its parts
It's a fact—diverse teams with divergent perspectives make better work. That’s why integration and collaboration aren't just virtues to strive for, they are the heart of any business.
Never lose your commitment to craft
Never lose your commitment to craft
In a world where so many disciplines and approaches need to be combined, it’s critical that each part of the puzzle is executed at the highest level.
The interface is the experience
The interface is the experience
Today, every experience, transaction, and piece of content lives behind an interface. It’s the place where people touch a brand, and the experience of using it communicates more than an ad ever could.
Thinkers must make
Thinkers must make
Thinking and making are inextricably linked. Executing work teaches you how strategy can come to life in the world, and makes the thinking better.
Listen to what data is telling you
Listen to what data is telling you
Data isn't just a bunch of numbers. It is all that humanity out there, sending you signals about who they are and the impact your work is having on them. If you listen, they will tell you how to transform your communications, your product, and your business.
