Tell us about your project and we'll put together a quote. **How long does a project take?** A brand strategy engagement is typically 4–6 weeks and a website is typically 2–4 weeks. When the situation calls for it we move faster, and we'll always tell you upfront what's realistic for the work in front of us. **Who is 4080 Studio for?** We work with ambitious companies: founders and teams that need a brand and site worth remembering. We take on a handful of clients at a time, so we're not the right fit for high-volume, lowest-cost work. **What makes 4080 different from a typical agency?** You work directly with the two cofounders, with no account managers and no hand-offs to juniors. Strategy and craft come from the same small team, and we start with positioning before any design, because most companies have a clarity problem before they have a design problem. **Why do you start with strategy instead of design?** A beautiful site built on a fuzzy story ages fast. We figure out what you stand for, who it's for, and why it matters first, then design from there, so everything downstream gets easier and the work lasts past your next phase. **Do you work with companies outside India?** Yes. We're based in Uttarakhand, India and work with startups and businesses across the USA, Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai, and the UK. Most collaboration happens remotely, with founder sessions to get the strategy right up front. **How do I get started?** Book a 30-minute call or email hello@4080studio.com, and we'll respond within hours. The first call is half an hour to figure out together whether it's the right fit. You tell us where the business is, and we tell you honestly what we'd do next. ## Links - Home: https://4080studio.com/ - Case studies: https://4080studio.com/work - Services: https://4080studio.com/services - Studio vs agency vs freelancer: https://4080studio.com/studio-vs-agency - Pricing: https://4080studio.com/pricing - Notes: https://4080studio.com/notes - About: https://4080studio.com/about - Careers: https://4080studio.com/careers - Contact: https://4080studio.com/contact - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/4080studio - X: https://x.com/4080studio - Instagram: https://instagram.com/4080studio - Threads: https://www.threads.com/@4080studio - Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/4080studio.bsky.social - Pinterest: https://in.pinterest.com/4080studio/ - Tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/blog/4080studio - Substack: https://4080studio.substack.com
