Our typical design and development process looks like this:

Phase 1 - Discovery

Let’s work together to explore all the key components of your business. Our team will pursue a deep understanding of your brand and core competencies, so that we can offer truly informed guidance and recommendations.

(Optional) Phase 2 - Wireframing

If necessary, the next phase that kicks off the design phase is wireframing. This skeletal outline addresses the basics of a page like organization, content blocks, and the location of various components. Typically, a wireframe is recommended when the design is especially complex or there are many decision makers involved.

Phase 3 - Design UI / UX

One of the most crucial aspects of your website is the overall user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design. Our talented creative team will work together to produce a design that reflects, your brand, meets the needs and wants of your customers, and artfully encompasses the functionality you need without sacrificing visual appeal.

Phase 4 - Development + QA

In development we bring the design to life with expert coding and customization to give your users a fluid, fast, and friendly website (or app). From there it passes to QA, where our work is rigorously tested for functionality and responsiveness across multiple devices.

Phase 5 - Launch

Once your site has been tested, you're off to the races! We'll support you through launch and beyond, with custom email and content marketing, loyalty plans, new product offerings and expansions, and much more. With Tako, you get a full service agency proud to build rich, supportive, long-term relationships with our clients.
