Launch engagements & starting budgets

A clear base scope. A tailored proposal before commitment.

Positioning, identity & digital launch

Brand & Digital Launch

A recognisable brand. A distinctive website. One shared direction.

Positioning, a complete core identity, a custom-designed and custom-coded website, and the agreed materials for your commercial launch.

From $25,000 USD

For a business launching, repositioning or entering a new market, with identity and digital presence developed together.

Includes the custom UI, custom code, simple management portal and native search foundations of Commercial Website, connected to your positioning, identity and launch materials.

Base scope and delivery
  • Positioning & messaging: audience, value proposition, offer structure and the messages that guide the launch
  • Brand identity & art direction: an original visual system, logo, typography, colour and practical application guidelines
  • Custom website: original UI and custom code, with journeys, pages and dynamic layouts defined around the agreed content and business needs
  • Simple management portal included: authenticated access to create, edit and publish the agreed texts, images and showcase catalogue entries
  • Native SEO, AEO & GEO foundations: semantic public content, crawlable routes, metadata, internal linking, sitemaps and appropriate structured data built into the architecture and code
  • Launch materials: a selected set of campaign, presentation or sales applications, with formats, quantities and production responsibilities agreed for the project
  • Delivery & handover: responsive implementation, agreed integrations, browser and accessibility checks, measurement setup, publication and operating instructions
Content production — tailored to your starting point
We review what you already have before proposing new production. Existing assets can be reused or adapted; copywriting, original imagery, photography, film, motion and 3D are selected and priced against the actual need. The proposal makes supplied content, adaptations, new production and responsibilities explicit. Art direction is always included; a compulsory new-content bundle is not.
Strategic Search Launch — optional boost
Add a separately scoped launch programme for a local market, specialist niche or relevant query cluster: research, a blog or useful targeted sections, an agreed first collection of reviewed content, internal linking and management-ready publishing. We build useful coverage, not just an empty blog or repeated location pages. This extends the native SEO, AEO & GEO foundations; it does not replace them or guarantee search results. Scope and investment are agreed for the project; ongoing content and search work can follow separately.

Two consolidated review rounds per design stage. Creative directions, applications and approval responsibilities are agreed in the proposal.

Timing follows the identity work, website architecture, content readiness and production scope. Delivery milestones and availability are agreed in the proposal.

Scope extensions. The proposal defines the identity system, website architecture, content types, languages, launch applications, functionality, review stages and price before work begins. There is no preset page or layout quota. Existing assets are reviewed first; copywriting, photography, motion, original 3D, naming and packaging are selected and costed against the actual need. E-commerce checkout, payments, order management and complex operational integrations require a Custom Systems scope. Hosting and third-party services are itemised separately. Search foundations do not guarantee rankings, indexing or AI citations.

Brand strategy & creative direction

DOGO Direction

Clarify your value. Define your direction. See it take shape.

A bespoke Direction Book connecting research, strategy, messaging and a reasoned moodboard to one original creative concept, demonstrated across two agreed applications.

From $2,500 USD

For a business defining the strategic and visual direction of a launch, repositioning or priority offer.

Includes one fully developed creative direction, demonstrated across two agreed applications. Additional concepts and applications can be included in your project scope.

Inside your Direction Book
  • Analysis & opportunities: review your offer, audience, current communication and relevant competitors, distinguishing observed evidence from hypotheses
  • Positioning & messaging: a clear value proposition, differentiating message and a written business description with key messages
  • Creative direction: a reasoned moodboard with colour, typography, imagery and composition, connected to the strategy
  • Original visual proposal: one developed creative concept with original design and key copy, demonstrated across two agreed applications
  • Action plan: prioritised interventions, the role of relevant channels, production needs and dependencies
  • Your bespoke Direction Book as a designed PDF, plus exports of the visual proposal
  • An initial briefing, a guided presentation of the book and one consolidated revision round

The first fit conversation is free. Direction is optional and the book can guide your own team or a chosen production partner. Completed direction work reused in a larger DOGO project is accounted for rather than charged twice.

The schedule is confirmed after agreeing the research depth and the two creative applications.

Scope & extensions. The base addresses one agreed commercial priority and one primary audience. A concept is a distinct creative direction; applications show how it works on selected touchpoints. Additional concepts or applications are scoped and priced before work begins. The included revision refines the agreed direction rather than introducing a new one. A complete identity system, production-ready executions and website development are separate engagements; customer interviews, legal advice and product–market-fit validation are not included.

Starting investments in USD, before applicable taxes and external costs. Your written proposal defines the actual scope, production, responsibilities and delivery milestones.

Wider launches & business transformations

Connect more of the business. Scope the work in phases.

A complete product world

Brand World & Market Launch

A recognisable identity, a compelling product story and a connected set of digital and commercial touchpoints.

Programme budgets from$35,000 USD

For a product company introducing a range, entering a market or replacing a fragmented brand presence.

Scope & working agreement
  • Brand direction and identity across the agreed product range
  • Product narrative, page architecture and a custom marketing experience
  • An agreed visual-production and campaign-asset allocation
  • Commercial presentations, editorial or packaging applications selected for the launch

Programme budgets start at $35,000 USD. We select the range, markets, production and applications in discovery; this is not an unlimited bundle or an automatic extension of every Brand & Digital Launch deliverable.

Discuss Brand World & Market Launch

From product discovery to purchase

Brand & Commerce Transformation

A distinctive commerce experience connected to the data, content and processes that keep it operating.

Programme budgets from$40,000 USD

For a business that needs its brand, product catalogue and buying journey to work as one system.

Scope & working agreement
  • Brand and buying-journey direction
  • Custom storefront, with headless architecture when justified by requirements
  • Product/content models, catalogue discovery and agreed commerce-engine connections
  • Integration validation, transactional acceptance checks and an operating handover

Programme budgets start at $40,000 USD, subject to paid technical discovery. Markets, catalogue migration, payment/stock responsibilities, APIs and support are costed explicitly. Existing catalogue cases demonstrate the relevant experience work, not an unverified transactional backend.

An ecosystem, redesigned together

DOGO Transformation

A phased transformation spanning the brand, commercial experience and selected operational systems.

Programme budgets from$60,000 USD

For an established business changing its positioning, customer experience and the systems behind them.

Scope & working agreement
  • Positioning, brand system and rollout priorities
  • Website or commerce, portals and content architecture selected for the programme
  • Agreed APIs, workflows, data interfaces and automation
  • A staged launch plan, ownership map, acceptance criteria and handover

Programme budgets start at $60,000 USD. A paid discovery defines phases, specialist responsibilities and implementation estimates before commitment. This is not a fixed price for rebuilding an entire business or a promise of enterprise-scale support.

Continuing creative, digital & search partnerships

Keep the work moving with a defined monthly capacity.

SEO, AEO & GEO

Search & AI Visibility

Make your expertise easier to discover, understand and enquire about through a focused research and improvement cycle.

Discuss Search & AI Visibility

Your continuing creative and technical direction

Creative & Digital Partner

Turn the next commercial priority into a coordinated set of brand materials and digital improvements.

Monthly capacity from$5,000 USD / month

For a team with recurring launches, campaigns or website improvements that needs one consistent creative and digital partner.

From $5,000 USD/month. Days, review limits, capacity scheduling and change/cancellation terms are agreed in the proposal. New full websites, original shoots, extensive 3D work and incident response are not unlimited inclusions.

Discuss Creative & Digital Partner

Programme figures are indicative starting budgets, not fixed prices for every listed capability. Monthly figures reserve the stated capacity. All amounts are in USD, before applicable taxes, third-party services and separately approved production costs. Your proposal defines the actual scope and team.

Custom commerce, portals & connected systems

Build the experience around the way your business works.

For a business whose customer experience needs to connect with content, data and day-to-day operations.

Scoped after technical discovery

Discuss your system
  • Custom storefronts and headless commerce where the requirements justify it
  • Product and content models, catalogues and customer journeys
  • Portals, dashboards, APIs, automation and live-data interfaces
  • Roles, data ownership, integrations, acceptance checks and operating responsibilities

Discovery resolves the uncertain parts before an implementation price is fixed. Critical integrations and transactional journeys are tested. Hosting, third-party services, support and incident response are specified separately.

Brand, custom engineering & search foundations

Designed as parts of the same business.

Brand and product clarity

Positioning, visual identity and product communication share the same decisions, from a headline to a comparison page.

Custom implementation

UX, UI, code and content models are developed together. Architecture follows the experience and the operating needs of your business.

Search and AI discovery

Useful product information, accessible pages, internal links and appropriate structured data enter the brief from the start.

Launch foundations cover the agreed pages and templates. Continuing SEO, AEO and GEO adds market research, new content, evidence and iteration to an explicitly scoped programme.

Remote collaboration, reviews & handover

A direct relationship and a visible working process.

  1. 01

    Fit and priorities

    Share the product, market and next milestone. An initial conversation establishes the useful scope and the people who need to be involved.

  2. 02

    A written working agreement

    Deliverables, dependencies, review rounds, acceptance checks, source files and payment milestones are agreed before production.

  3. 03

    Visible work and focused reviews

    Edward leads the creative direction and remains your point of contact. Written updates and scheduled reviews keep decisions explicit across time zones.

  4. 04

    Launch, handover and evolution

    We check the agreed journeys and deliver the implementation, files and operating documentation. Ongoing work is scoped around the next priorities.

Scope, ownership & project questions

Do we need to purchase Direction before a launch?

The initial fit conversation is free. DOGO Direction combines strategy and creative direction in a bespoke Direction Book, with one developed concept across two agreed applications. It is useful when defining how to position and present a launch, repositioning or priority offer. A clear brief can move directly into a production proposal; Direction is optional. Any completed direction work reused in the launch is accounted for rather than charged twice.

Can our existing engineering team stay involved?

Yes. We agree who owns the marketing site, product interface, content system and integrations. Your engineers can retain product ownership while DOGO leads the brand and commercial experience or delivers specific implementation work.

Where do headless commerce and custom platforms fit?

They are a distinct technical engagement. We examine product data, content, transactions, integrations and operating responsibilities before choosing an architecture. Discovery and implementation are separately scoped; the technology follows the business requirements.

What does built-in GEO mean?

The SEO, AEO and GEO foundations are built into the architecture and code from the outset: public content rendered as semantic HTML, crawlable routes, content models, metadata and canonical rules, sitemaps, internal links and appropriate structured data consistent with the visible information. This is implementation, not a last-minute optimisation pass. A strategic content launch or ongoing search programme can expand the coverage. Code supports discovery and understanding; search and AI platforms determine indexing, rankings and citations, which cannot be guaranteed.

What do the portfolio examples demonstrate?

The projects show DOGO’s work across brand, content and implementation for Italian businesses. Their sectors and deliverables are identified in each case. They are not presented as funded US startup clients or as proof of fundraising or revenue outcomes.

Can we expand the project beyond the starting scope?

Yes. Additional markets, a larger website, product visualisation, motion, packaging, editorial systems or integrations can be combined in a tailored proposal. The scope and budget reflect the actual production and technical requirements.

How do we work together remotely?

We work from Bologna and collaborate in English. We agree a decision-maker, written progress updates, review milestones and practical overlap windows for calls. Project dates and specialist availability are confirmed in the proposal.

What happens after launch?

Creative and digital capacity, search and content programmes, and technical maintenance can be scoped separately. Each has a defined workload and owner. Operational support and incident-response expectations are agreed explicitly.
