Glossary

Why a glossary? We believe that everyone needs to be on the same page. And part of getting to that point is by leveling the language barrier. This glossary is an ongoing segment that will grow with each and every brand and creative we work with.

A—C

Brand:

A company, organization, product, group, individual, or non-profit who needs creative help. If you fall into any of those categories, you're a brand.

CAC:

The CAC is too damn high! Our creatives aren't just "yes" people, they're product minded, and they use their imaginations to develop content, designs, and assets that convert. All while telling your story.

Creative:

They're not just freelancers. They're creative thinkers, skilled in the field(s) of design, development, copywriting, photographer, or video, among other things.

Cultivation:

The blooming of a quality or relationship with someone. The more you stir the pot like it's stew, the better the cultivation.

D—I

Not a day to be feared, but one to be celebrated. This is the date that a project should be completed.

Figma:

A cloud-based design tool that is better for team collaboration.

Freelancing:

Working for different companies at different times rather than being permanently employed by one company. You get the pick the projects you work on.

Geat Work:

Aka crushing it. Knocking it out of the park. A banger. It is also the product of a great partnership.

Performance:

The action or process of carrying out or accomplishing an action, task, or function.

S—Z

Sherpa:

We don’t sit in the background while the job board becomes the Wild West. We’re here to guide creatives and brands through the process, and make matches between creatives and brands.

Talent:

Likewise is chock-full of it. We believe that all of our collaborators have great skills, and we strive to make a perfect fit with projects that fit those skills perfectly.

Tools of the Trade:

Whether its pen and paper, digital photography, or editing in TextEdit, great work comes from any medium.

The Work:

Work doesn’t so much feel like work when you are working on projects you enjoy and getting compesated properly. The work is great and the partnerships are even better.
