Partnerships

Breakpoint

Justin Lai Founder at Breakpoint

We started working with Narratif because we relied entirely on referrals and our positioning was hard to change. The same people kept referring us for the same reasons.

The partnership gave us an outside perspective and the confidence to post about what actually made us different. One post about our Mariana Minerals project alone drove ~20 new inbound leads and reactivated referrers who hadn't sent us anything in a while.

Now, VCs and founders come to us with different expectations before we've even said a word, which makes every negotiation easier. We've turned down work we'd have taken last quarter, gone from a $16k to $30k minimum engagement fee for fundraise decks, and we're still booking at 100%.

Narratif has been the catalyst for our highest-growth phase ever and we've 3-4x'd our growth rate since working together.

Justin made Breakpoint the go-to brand studio for top VCs and startups in hard tech. Our sprint and advisory unlocked a new growth stage.

Skarlo

Luca Richards Founder at Skarlo

We started working with Narratif to strengthen our online presence, beginning with the narrative sprint. Not only did he help us organise our online presence, but he completely overhauled how we worked internally, sharpened our positioning, and helped us see Skarlo's strength as a studio more clearly than we ever had.

Before our partnership, we were pricing based on vibes, dealing with constantly shifting deadlines, and had no clear direction for growth. Since then, we've increased our prices by 400% in six months, we're fully booked for the next three months, and the quality of our work has improved immeasurably.

Our month-long engagement turned into an ongoing monthly partnership, and Thijs's input continues to be invaluable in helping Skarlo grow into the kind of company we actually want to be.

Luca made Skarlo the go-to design studio for A16Z Speedrun and Framer Agencies. Our sprint and advisory built the studio for scale.

G–W Studios

Viktor Persson Founder at G–W Studios

Narratif made us way more visible and this made our incoming volume crazy right now. We can’t find enough designers.

Viktor launched Typograph as a new venture of G–W Studios. Our sprint and partnership drove a surge of inbound inquiries for the studio.

Primary

Nick Pattison Founder at Primary

Thijs helped me understand LinkedIn in a way that felt immediately useful and actionable. He has a great grasp of the small details that actually matter, especially how to structure your profile, create clearer calls to action, and turn LinkedIn into something that can genuinely drive people to your website.

Beyond that, he’s just a pleasure to work with: thoughtful, sharp, and proactive. I would highly recommend Thijs to anyone looking to uplevel their presence on LinkedIn.

Nick made Primary the go-to brand sprint studio. Our advisory helped build his profile on LinkedIn to drive inbound.
