Hi friends, |
|
Anyone else feel like you’ve lived an entire lifetime since Thanksgiving? It’s not just us, right?
For the Good Work team, the last couple months have been filled with an abundance of new websites, new members of the family, and beverages.
The new year is a chance to reflect and take stock. As we’ve done that, here are a few things to look forward to in 2022 from us at Good Work:
• More websites that “wow” (including an upgrade to our own)
• Growing our team (pssst: we’re still hiring!)
• Coming to your inbox TWICE a month
We promise to continue to showcase just the good stuff. If there is something you want to see more of, let us know.
Speak soon,
Garrett

Putting Font Foundries on the Fast Track |

The Situation
The team at I Love Typography had been working on something big: a curated font marketplace where creators could sell their custom font files to the public. They had hired multiple developers to build and launch the new marketplace, but they knew they needed all hands on deck to launch within their desired timeline.
They needed a team to help execute the project management of a large-scale web launch.
Our Approach
After bringing on the Good Work team, our project managers quickly streamlined the process so that we could hit the goal: to launch the full marketplace in 60 days.
We negotiated with the stakeholders to prioritize the “must-haves” for this site to launch something that the I Love Typography team is proud of (and we are too!)
Today, we help maintain I Love Typography’s font marketplace as their ongoing development team:
✓ The site launched on time - in 60 days!
✓ Our project managers streamlined processes and expertly managed nearly 20 developers across the globe
✓ The site now hosts 67 foundries and over 2,000 fonts
✓ Site upkeep and maintenance
