From Brief to Launch: Behind the Scenes of a Wingmate Project

Step 1: Discovery & Kickoff

Once you pick your package  -  LeadMate, Starmate, or CelebMate  -  we kick off with a structured intake form and a 45-minute strategy call. This is where we:

  • Clarify your goals, audience, and differentiators
  • Review your current brand or website
  • Align on timelines and deliverables

Step 2: Research & Creative Direction

Our team dives into market research, competitor benchmarks, and user expectations. From there, we develop a creative direction doc that includes:

  • Moodboards
  • Initial typography and color directions
  • Visual tone alignment (e.g. bold, minimalist, playful)

This gives you a chance to steer the design before any production begins.

Step 3: Design Sprints

Design is delivered in sprints:

  • Week 1–2: Brand system exploration or UX wireframes
  • Week 3: Final visuals, polish, and mockups
  • Week 4: Figma handoff or motion storyboard previews

We present work asynchronously and via video walkthroughs to keep momentum high  -  especially for remote teams.

Step 4: Revisions & Final Delivery

You’ll have two feedback windows. We believe in speed with structure  -  enough flexibility to get it right, not enough to spiral. Final assets are delivered ready to deploy, whether that’s a dev-ready Figma file, a motion video, or a brand playbook.

Step 5: Support or Add-Ons

Need help implementing your design? We offer optional dev handoff sessions, motion refinements, and add-on visuals like pitch decks or templates.

Final Word

At Wingmate, process equals peace of mind. We don’t do vague timelines or mysterious fees. We do clarity, momentum, and design that launches fast  -  and lands strong.
