Principles

We preach harsh honesty over sweet lies

We are obsessed with setting right expectations from the beginning. If we feel that cannot help you, we’d rather pass on the job.

Some people don’t like our principles, or, more likely, the fact that we always stick to them.

We take it as a compliment.

  • Harsh honesty over sweet lies.
  • Loyalty is royalty.
  • We design for your customer.
  • No solution without understanding.
  • Once we get the job, it’s ours.
  • We don’t design for destructive causes.
  • No to free pitches.
  • Insights over commodities.
  • FAQs

    What’s your process? How much does it cost? You ask — we answer.

    • How much does your service cost?

      Because every project is different we cannot give you a price list. We can only indicate the lower limit that we won't go below:

      • $3500 for branding projects;
      • $5000 for websites;
      • $2500 for printing jobs;
    • We have a very small or urgent project. Can we skip couple steps?
      No. Our process is based on years of experience. Even small and urgent projects benefit from it, because they get chance to make an actual impact.
    • We are an agency / represent a client. Will you work with us?

      It depends if we can get direct access to decision making and communications with the client. In other words, you can facilitate payments and get your cut, but we are going to work directly with your client.

    • I know exactly what I want. I just need someone proficient with Photoshop to get it done.
      If you know exactly what you want, then you don't need a designer. We are brains, not just hands.
    • Our budget is very limited.
      Unless you are a non-profit that align with our views, we won't be able to accommodate you at this moment.
    • We don't want to sign your contract.
      Contracts are life savers. They protect both parties in case if things go wrong. We don’t work without the contract.
    • We have our own contract.
      We may be willing to sign your contract if we feel that it protects our side as well.
    • How am I sure that you deliver the promised results.
      Life is unpredictable. Business is even more so. We don't guarantee you business results (sales, clicks, etc.) as they depend on things beyond our control. We guarantee though, that we will set right expectations and then deliver on them.
    Why De Kross

    Focus on your business, not communication

    All your needs. Covered.

    Stop wasting your time managing different freelancers while losing consistency in your communication and marketing. We’ll cover all your needs from brand design to content writing to publishing to advertising.

    Pursue goals, not deliverables.

    We declare a war on the cargo-cult of deliverables. You don’t need a website just for the sake of it. You need it to sell things: products, services, ideas. That’s what we focus on.
