Our Work

Connecting mission to action since 1996

You want to have an impact. So do we. Whether we’re partnering with you on a brand refresh, redesigning your digital front door or creating a campaign to convert, our work is impactful when the people you need to reach feel compelled to act.

How? We make every dollar work hard. With our depth of experience in the sector and our team of senior practitioners, we’re experts. We know where the biggest opportunities and gaps are.
Our interdisciplinary approach means we find efficiencies through cross-team collaboration.
And if your aspiration is just way bigger than your budget, we can confidently strategize a phased approach to getting there.
We create consensus. We’ve learned that listening very closely to all stakeholders, gently challenging assumptions where they bump up against data, and making everyone feel heard helps smooth the differences.
We also know how to help you shape your internal processes to balance competing needs: the desire for consensus and the need for timely decision-making.
We help you absorb the work a new project demands. Digital Pulp’s producers have dealt with many scenarios where realities on the client side mean we have to reshape the process. Because our baseline process is solid, adjustments don’t derail launch.
Content is always the most demanding part of the project for your team. We deliver robust guides that offer recommendations for every aspect of building each page while amplifying message and clarifying information. (Or our team can take on content development for you.)
We create presentations and reports that speak their language.
We regularly work closely with client project teams to create presentations that are focused on what leadership wants to see and how they want to see it.
And our analytics reports are designed for fast and easy human consumption.
We have our fingers on the pulse because we continually are researching what’s coming up. We keep you ahead of the curve.

Colleges and universities are facing an impending storm: funding and enrollment uncertainties, eroding public trust, a radical shift in how kids research options and the rise of “vibe” as a factor. How do you navigate in such an uncertain environment? Digital Pulp’s expertise in higher education means we already understand and are equipped to respond to shifts in institutional realities, audience behavior and the nitty gritty of compliance; not only WCAG, but the number of clicks between homepage and Net Cost Calculator.

“Digital Pulp played an important role in helping USC ideate a web presence built around storytelling that was infused with life, energy and visual impact…. And Digital Pulp worked with us to establish a component-based platform available to the entire university. In addition to powering our core websites, it provides a foundation for every school to launch a full featured, brand-compliant website in a fraction of the usual time and cost.”
- Christian Gunning, VP of Communications, University of Southern California

Major donors have been keeping nonprofits afloat for years. What happens when they’re gone? Not many organizations have an effective online pipeline for new, younger donors or ways to retain the first-time donors they’ve gained. And with leadership and staff mired in the intricacies of nonprofit management, too many .orgs lack an understanding of how to tell their story to the outside world. We show the world why they should care and make it easy for them to take action.

“Digital Pulp has been an ideal partner as we’ve reimagined our digital platform around the journeys that matter most to our organization and the people we serve. The numbers prove it. The new user experience we shaped together drove a 550% increase in visits to the “Find Your Local United Way” page, with 80% of users who searched going on to connect. We have also seen a 35% lift in engagement, and thousands of new clicks on our key conversion CTAs. We look forward to building on this momentum and continuing our partnership with the team.”
- Jen LaFrance, Director of Digital Marketing, UWW

How can you keep legacy members and also grow your membership? Younger members are looking for smooth, personalized user experiences rather than the complicated sign-up and member flows so many membership organizations have today—but older members may resist change on the digital front. How do you stay relevant in a fast-moving market? Industry standards, regulations and trends change so rapidly that traditional committees struggle to update content fast enough. And how can you provide consistency across online chapters while still giving them some autonomy? At Digital Pulp, we delight in simplifying the online experience for both internal and external audiences.

“Digital Pulp has twice proven to be a reliable, educated, organized, and relatable vendor. We’ve been lucky to partner with them on not only a complete web redesign and content strategy, but also a design refresh several years later. In both instances, we’ve found a partner willing to collaborate, make decisions based on data, client input, and design best practices, but also a partner with a clear mode of delivery and communication. We can’t say enough good things about the DP team.”
- Carly M. Ferry, Senior Manager Digital Content, American Academy of Neurology

A unique challenge faces health and research organizations, and thinktanks: They have to serve several audiences with vastly different interests and needs: patients, the media, policymakers, researchers…. How do you build public trust in an environment dominated by skepticism while maintaining the precision required for specialized stakeholders? Or guide each audience to the information they need. Or communicate complex ideas in a way that engages lay people while maintaining scientific integrity? Digital Pulp has the brainpower to create solutions that meet people where they are without comprising depth.

“Creating a new website from scratch is no easy feat, but the expert and devoted Digital Pulp team helped us craft our story to share with a broad audience and to deliver that story in a website designed to showcase our research, people, and contributions to society. From the storytelling to design to development, all aspects were well organized and wrapped in a robust project management framework, ensuring we met milestones as close to deadline as possible. Digital Pulp is a first-class team that delivered a first-class website.”
- Grace Dusseau, Communications Manager, UVA Biocomplexity Institute
