Your extended production team, embedded with yours

Production support covers the work that turns an approved plan into finished assets: email builds, website pages, digital and print design, sales enablement materials, CRM setup and video. That includes HTML email templates, landing pages, banners, social assets, reports, event signage, tradeshow graphics, presentations, lead capture integrations, explainers and social video. One studio handles it, with one intake point and a named owner for every request, so campaign assets stay consistent across channels.

Yes. Most of our production engagements are support partnerships, where our team works as an extension of yours. We take on overflow, add skills your team lacks, such as HTML email development, print production or CRM configuration, and adopt your existing processes where they work. We worked this way with Tommy Hilfiger's in-house studio on digital brand advertising, where our banners consistently generated 1% to 2.5% CTRs against a 0.01% benchmark.

An embedded production studio is a dedicated agency team that works inside your marketing organization, using your request systems, tools and approval process. Your people brief it the way they would brief a colleague down the hall. At 4:59 the same designers, developers, writers and producers handle your work every week, so briefs get shorter and revision rounds get fewer. You get in-house continuity with the flexibility to scale as volume changes.

Volume depends on team size and the mix of work. The Akamai Studio we built produced over 400 projects in its first six months with a team of 3.5 people, and it now produces more than 1,300 projects a year. That work ranges from the 40-page State of the Internet report to event signage, animated GIF banners and social motion graphics. We size each studio to your request volume and adjust it as that changes.

With templates, clear specs and a QA step every asset passes before your reviewers see it. At kickoff we build master templates for recurring formats, spec sheets for each ad network, email client and venue, and a shared checklist for brand rules, legal copy, links and file settings. Automated tests catch rendering problems, broken links, missing alt text and wrong file sizes. Then a producer checks each asset against the brief and an editor reads the copy.

Most clients use a support partnership, where our creative and production team adds capacity and skills to yours. This is how the Akamai Studio runs. Full service suits projects that need discovery, design, build and launch from one team, such as a report, a template system or a campaign rollout. Consulting suits teams with production staff who want senior creative direction, workflow design or technology recommendations. Every project gets a fixed date and a named owner at kickoff.

Because a campaign rarely lives in one channel. The ad, the landing page, the follow-up email and the sales deck all need the same message and the same look. Email and web production run on modular systems, and digital, print and sales materials draw on the same brand foundations. CRM setup connects them: landing page forms feed your CRM, the CRM triggers emails, and tracking shows which assets produce leads. Nothing gets lost between handoffs.

Building, testing and shipping emails and pages in your platforms, assembled from modular systems of tested parts. On email, that means HTML development, dynamic and multi-language templates, rendering tests and deployment. For Pimco we consolidated more than 30 templates into 7. On the web, we build pages and landing pages, add components and migrate content. For ActionIQ we moved 800+ pages into a modular WordPress theme, and for Aperture 3,000+ pages from Magento to WordPress.

Yes. We configure your CRM and email platform, connect website forms with source tracking, consent capture and lead routing, including Salesforce and Pardot, and test each flow with real submissions. Every setup comes with documentation and training, so your team can maintain it after launch. For Persado, CRM automation tied email, display, social, PR and search to conversion, part of a program that delivered a 400% increase in inbound qualified leads.

We use AI tooling and automation for repetitive production steps: resizing and versioning assets, drafting copy variants, and running automated checks for rendering, broken links, alt text, file size and print specs. A designer, writer or producer reviews every output, and nothing ships without human approval. The time saved goes into design quality and holding the date set at kickoff.
