# Agency partnerships

Your clients want complex websites, integrations and support after launch. Pivale works alongside your agency as their development partner, so you can take on those briefs without building a technical team.

| | |
|---|---|
| Best for | Creative, design and marketing agencies |
| Works as | An extension of your team |
| Engagement | Retainer-based, with regular performance reviews |
| Proven with | Milestone Creative, 2018 to 2026 |

## The problem: Clients want more than you can build.

Your clients ask for complex websites, integrations and ongoing support. Building an in-house development team to deliver them takes time and money you may not want to commit.

- **Turning down technical briefs:** Work with complex builds or integrations goes to another agency.
- **Freelancers come and go:** Each project starts with someone new to your clients and their systems.
- **Hiring is a big step:** A development team adds overhead before the work is there to fund it.
- **Support after launch:** Your clients expect maintenance, security and new features long after go-live.

## How we help: An extension of your team.

A consistent team of strategists, developers and support specialists learns your clients and works to your brief. Regular reviews keep you up to date on progress, decisions and the reasons behind them.

1. **Retainer:** Ongoing development and improvements for your clients, shaped around their needs.
2. **Dedicated team:** The same strategists, developers and support specialists on each project.
3. **Regular reviews:** Check-ins to review progress, adapt the plan and get the most from each project.
4. **Technical ownership:** Pivale takes responsibility for performance, security and scalability, so you can focus on your clients.

## What changes: Bigger briefs, same agency.

- **9×** return on investment from the first campaign on a manufacturing brand’s competitions platform, built with Milestone Creative
- **7+ yrs** of partnership with Milestone Creative, from 2018 to 2026
- **1** multisite uniting a multinational manufacturer’s EMEA brands
