Onboarding That Gets Things Moving
A clear onboarding process that gets your project underway without the usual back-and-forth, false starts, and lost weeks.






Start Well, Finish Faster
Most projects lose their first fortnight to confusion: unclear scope, missing assets, and nobody quite sure what happens next. A good onboarding process kills that dead before it costs you time.
We set up the start of your project so everyone knows the plan, the timeline, and exactly what is needed from whom.

Let’s Build Something Great Together
A rebrand. A new website. A custom app. A better way to show up online. Whatever's next, let's make sure your digital presence is ready for it.
Onboarding that sets the whole project up to run
How a project starts tends to decide how it finishes. A messy kick-off haunts a build the whole way through, so we take the beginning seriously.
We build a clear onboarding process that gets everything a project needs sorted up front: goals, scope, assets, access, and a timeline everyone has actually seen. That means fewer surprises later and a lot less chasing halfway through.
It is the unglamorous groundwork that makes the rest of the work go smoothly, which is exactly why it is worth doing properly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a website strategy process?
A website strategy process is the discovery and planning phase that happens before any design or development work begins. It typically includes stakeholder workshops, user research, competitive analysis, and a technical audit of any existing site. The output is a strategic framework that guides the entire project and reduces the risk of building the wrong thing.
How long does the strategy phase take?
It depends on the scope of the project, but for most B2B website builds the discovery and strategy phase runs one to three weeks. Larger or more complex projects with multiple stakeholders or an extensive existing site to audit will take longer. The time spent in strategy consistently reduces the time spent in revisions later.
Do I need a strategy phase if I already know what I want?
Usually yes, and the most common reason is that what you think you want at the start of a project and what you need once the research is done are often different things. The strategy phase isn't about slowing you down, it's about making sure the build solves the right problem rather than the assumed one.
What do I get at the end of the strategy phase?
A comprehensive strategy document that covers user personas, journey maps, brand positioning, messaging, content strategy, site structure, technical requirements, and success metrics. This becomes the reference point for every decision made during the design and build.
Does What IF Web do strategy for every project?
Yes. Every project starts with discovery and strategy, calibrated to the scope of the work. A smaller project gets a leaner version of the process. A full brand and website build gets the complete framework. The depth changes; the approach doesn't.
