§ FAQs

The questions. And the honest answers.

How is A+R different from a traditional agency?

+

We don't carry bench overhead. Two principals architect every engagement, then we assemble a senior, fractional roster configured for your category. Carousel — our operating system — keeps the work coherent across disciplines that normally get siloed.

Do I get access to Carousel?

+

No. Carousel isn't a SaaS product — it's how we deliver. You hire A+R; Carousel is the connective tissue that lets a small senior team ship the output of a much bigger department.

What size brand do you work with?

+

Most of our engagements sit between $10M and $50M ARR, but the better question is fit. We work best with operators who want a single accountable team rather than a vendor stack.

How do engagements start?

+

A 30-minute conversation. No brief, no RFP. If we're not the right team, we'll say so and point you at one that is.

How is pricing structured?

+

One retainer, scoped to the engagement tier. No media markups. No procurement games.
