Our Process | Tr1f3cta
Our Collaborative Approach to Your Online Success
At Tr1f3cta, we believe in a partnership approach. Our process for direct service engagements and custom projects is designed to be clear, collaborative, and focused on achieving your specific business goals. We work with you every step of the way, ensuring you’re informed and involved from initial consultation to ongoing results.
Please note: The detailed collaborative process outlined below applies when you engage Tr1f3cta for our bundled services, custom development projects, or sustainability technology solutions. For standard products like domain names or individual hosting plans purchased via our Tr1f3cta Storefront, you’ll experience a more direct, self-managed setup process.
Adapting to Your Needs
While our core project phases ensure consistency and quality for our direct services, the way we collaborate within these phases can be flexible. We adapt our communication and the level of technical detail shared to match your comfort level and needs – whether you’re technically savvy and want deep involvement, or prefer more high-level guidance. Our goal is a smooth and effective experience for everyone engaging in a Tr1f3cta-led project.
Step 1: Discovery & Goal Setting
Discovery - Your Business, Needs & Inspiration
It all starts with understanding you – both your business and the vision, passion, and unique perspective of the person or people behind it. We begin with a detailed consultation to learn about your business, your industry, target audience, current online presence (or lack thereof), and challenges. More than that, we take the time to understand your goals, your aspirations, and what success truly looks like to you. This phase also involves clearly defining the project scope and deliverables.
Tailored Approach: For clients comfortable with technical details, we can dive deeper into specific requirements and existing infrastructure during this phase. For those preferring a higher-level view, we focus primarily on understanding the business goals and desired outcomes.
Step 2: Strategy Development
Strategy - Your Custom Online Roadmap
Based on the insights gathered during Discovery, we develop a comprehensive strategy uniquely tailored to your business. This involves analysis of your market, competitors, and current performance, and often includes User Experience (UX) design, User Interface (UI) mockups, and technical architecture planning. We identify the most impactful opportunities, define measurable objectives, and outline a clear roadmap of recommended services and actions.
Tailored Approach: We present this strategy to you, explaining the ‘what’, ‘why’, and ‘how’. For technically savvy clients, we can include detailed architectural diagrams and technical specifications. For others, we focus on visual designs, user flows, and the expected business outcomes, ensuring you are confident and aligned before proceeding.
STEP 3: IMPLEMENTATION & ACTION
Implementation - Bringing Your Plan to Life
With a clear strategy approved, our expert team gets to work executing the plan. This is where the tailored solutions come to life – building your website, developing your application, implementing SEO tactics, or deploying sustainability technology. We use industry best practices and often iterative approaches, ensuring quality throughout the build. Rigorous testing, including functional checks and User Acceptance Testing (UAT), is integral before deployment.
Tailored Approach: We maintain open communication, keeping you informed of progress via regular updates, demos, or access to project management tools, depending on your preference. Your level of involvement in phases like UAT can also be adjusted.

Transparent Progress Updates
STEP 4: MONITORING, REPORTING & REFINEMENT
Results & Refinement - Tracking Success and Adapting
Online success and project impact require continuous attention. Following launch, we rigorously monitor performance using analytics and tracking tools, measuring key metrics against your goals. We provide regular, clear reports summarizing results and providing actionable insights – the level of detail can be tailored to your needs. Based on this data and any shifts in the landscape, we collaboratively refine strategies for ongoing improvement, ensuring sustainable growth. This phase often concludes with a project closure and debrief report.
Tailored Approach: Reporting can range from high-level summaries and key insights to detailed analytics dashboards, depending on your preference for data depth.
