How we’re different from traditional agencies

At Built by Field, we prioritize transparency and flexibility during our development phases, in ways that traditional agencies aren’t structured to handle.

Transparent Communication and Billing:

It’s of the utmost importance to us that we’re transparent with our communication. For larger projects, we clearly outline hourly ranges for different aspects of each project’s sets, and bill on a monthly basis. This ensures that our clients are fully informed about project progress and costs, and in turn collaboration is much easier and more open. It also helps us avoid miscommunications and big surprises near the end of timelines. Traditional agencies, relying on project-based pricing with lump sum invoices, lack this level of transparency, which hinders collaboration and often results in one party profiting off the other unfairly.

Direct Communication with Project Teams:

We facilitate direct communication between clients and project teams, ensuring a deep understanding of client data and design needs. Companies with bulky staff structures can involve multiple project managers as intermediaries, leading to misunderstandings and delays.

Minimum Viable Building and Technological Flexibility:

We aim to develop sites tailored to your specific needs, without introducing unnecessary complexities. When new challenges arise or a new technology is needed, we encourage pivoting to whichever tech stack is best suited for the project. Traditional agencies, constrained by legacy processes and larger staff, take longer to adapt to new technologies or custom solutions.

We emphasize transparent communication, direct interaction, and technological flexibility, which allows us to offer our clients a personalized and honest development experience, which allows both us and our clients to create great websites with honest collaboration all along the way.
