Cause of a Kind

Cause of a Kind A creative collective and boutique digital agency for businesses, entrepreneurs and innovators. Something much easier to say than it is to live by.

Providing Web Marketing, Creative Direction and Web Development services to organizations with missions supporting environmental and social responsibility. A friend of ours used to tell us, "don’t talk about it, be about it." That’s most things though, isn’t it? It is much easier to perceive ourselves one way--to recite a mantra until we think it’s true. This isn’t just a startup, or a product, or

some check you write and take a picture with. This isn’t a fancy commercial, ripe with crescendos, images of birds taking flight, and time lapses of sprouting seedlings. This project is about taking your consumer power and attention and holding it up for the greater good. It’s an investment in our future. It’s not a click or a swipe on a like button. This is a place for you to build a better tomorrow. It started as a small idea, to build a store that made a difference. Then we had a crazier idea, what if we could sell products for ninety days, made specifically to raise money for different causes? The evolution continued and it became a publication. One that features amazing people, pursuing amazing goals, who have a focus on reducing their own environmental impact while sharing their stories and effort to influence change. We named it; Take Back Tomorrow. We started to work with the most interesting people on earth and strive to share their stories —- stories of humanity and its coexistence with the environment. Today, we take our skills and expertise and that of everyone we've worked with for over 20 years combined, to offer our services for those on the front lines. Those fighting the battles that will determine what our generation is made of and what world we are going to leave behind. One thing we have learned is that this battle is too often lost to the competition for the loudest voice -- and too often is that voice not the one that needs to be heard. We focus on partnering with organizations that have roots in environmental and social good. Our partners and our future partners use business to drive impact to their communities. We have always said, an incredible story shakes us into action and touches us deep in our core. We want to help you tell those stories. The opportunity to realize your brands potential starts with saying hello. All the best,
Justin & Mike
Founders

So you just built this beautiful website, but it isn't "working", huh?

We actually see this ALL THE TIME.

We even have a program for it. We call these "REMEDIATIONS".

Far too often, websites are built beautifully, but, if the build team does not include SEO's, CRO's, Analytics Specialists and website taxonomists, its not surprising at all that the website is simply not meeting your KPI's.

You should be considering a better web experience... If that's you, you are already running a bit behind.

There are so many opportunities to serve your customer and business better.

Faster. Less Expensive. More Durable. Better Optimized. Highly Performant.

The list just keeps going, but instead of growing a list of Pros and Cons, call us instead...

We probably would have been launched by now.

UNDER 12 WEEKS?? 😱

You did not misread that at all.

It is actually what we are known for.

If speed is not a priority for you, we are probably not the right Startup Igniter for you...

We get it. You're under water and your engineering team keeps deprioritizing your task list.

Perhaps you need an addition to your team, without the commitment to lofty salaries, benefits, ramp time and so forth?

AlwaysOn Website Management was made for you.

We do things differently.

Over the years we have curated a productized service offering that does not include fixed scopes and hourly retainers. It was never a model that felt inspiring, mutual in partnership, and frictionless.

We simply decided to shake things up, and we will never look back.

99 Lighthouse Score... Speed up folks!

This day and age, is there really a valid excuse for not pursing near instant performance on the web?

The tools are all there. The data all demonstrates that need for more speed. The solutions are lighter. The code is leaner. The compression is better.

I mean, at least aim for 85 or better... that's a B+ in grade school at a minimum.

Come on folks!

AHEAD OF SCHEDULE?!?! 😱

How many times in your career as a marketer or a technologist have you had a hard deadline that was blown right by and was treated as though it did not even exist?

Or how many times was an estimate of delivery provided, but, "we need another week" 37 weeks in a row...?

We just don't vibe with all that.

For your sake, were gonna shake that up.

You can't be late if you are always shipping. You're ahead of schedule on day one, if you are shipping valuable code every single day.

We just aim to delight our customers and remain far ahead of their expectations.

Startup Incubator, Certainly.
Startup Accelerator, Sure.
Startup Igniter? 🤔

Before an aspiring founder can even dream about an Incubator, and before they are far enough along to reap the benefits of an accelerator, there are Igniters.

Cause of a Kind's, Startup Igniter program is designed to get bootstrapping founders, from 0 to Market in less than 12 weeks, while never sacrificing on some critical core values.

Imagine this...

You show up to work on Monday and catch the news...

That on shore, in time zone, full stack, full service team from New York starts in a week.

What a relief.

Does the size of your backlog of marketing tasks give you a headache?

Is most of the stuff on the list website related from HubSpot forms to Webflow speed optimizations, to Shopify ecommerce particulars, Semrush SEO recommendations, compliance and regulatory requirements, and so forth and so on?

Consider us for your headache.

11/12/2023

Are you an aspiring tech founder and just generally worried about NEVER LAUNCHING, BURNING CASH, and FOREVER TIMELINES?

Your worry about endless design and development cycles, endless budget, and some lip service heading into some far off grand reveal, IS VALID.

But it is nonsense.

You should be worried about all that. But you do not have to settle. We couldn't be further from that noise.

-We don't believe in big reveals. We believe in "always be shipping" and have something to show, daily.
-We don't believe in change orders. Just iteration and pure agile.
-We believe in essential features and constant releases
-We believe in shipping complete products in under 12 weeks...

At the very least, don't settle.

You don't have to choose Cause of a Kind Startup Igniter, but definitely don't settle for all that nonsense from the other guy.
