​
Now imagine that CPA had been disappointed by a previous firm. Enter MK Consulting Firm: upfront about the process and expectations. It was our honesty, integrity and candid expectations that brought this concept to fruition. We worked with the Founder to take an idea, brand it, develop it and execute it successfully.

Most importantly we delivered.

STATUS UPDATE
The Client knew his expertise: finances and he trusted our expertise: branding and design. We listened to exactly what he was trying to accomplish. The biggest challenge and the most exciting one is creating a startup concept from scratch.
​
Our primary goal was to convey direclty on the website and blog his vast knowledge of finances in a way that users can easily understand. We did this by developing blog content that was informative and getting the best value out of BSF's content.
03/ Experience
After a few days of brainstorming, collecting data and workshopping to gather all the crucial information we needed to get started, we focused on several main angles.
​
On one side, we worked on the creation of a simple, but comprehensive user experience for a really broad set of potential visitors ranging from young people to established experts, to couples on a honeymoon trip trying to get as much bang for their buck before heading to their next destination.
​
All of those customers, with their own very specific needs had to be provided with the right tools to understand, plan, and contact Be Secure Financially.

04/ Design & Content
We love it when a plan comes together
A big chunk of our energy got spent on full brand strategy and carefully crafting highly immersive pages while building a design language which is consistent, knowledgable and understandable. Starting from scratch, we had to make sure the elements we were building made sense when it came to delivering on a large-scale platform, and regarding a large number of potential customers. Moreover, we knew those pages would later be fully CMS manageable, extending the challenge to a whole different scale. Finally, the website and blog display a wide range of smaller and bigger tools to enable any visitor’s needs and questions to be answered. Learning how to tackle your finances and creating the kind of content you want to see.
