## What We Did

Overview
Creative Market is a startup with a two-sided marketplace. It is an online marketplace
for community-generated design assets – a place for artists to share wonderful resources
and for creative professionals to find high quality assets. They already had a thriving
blog but had discovered several areas of friction that they sought to alleviate,
and we were excited to propose a creative solution.

## Taking a creative approach
At the start of the project, Creative Market had a prolific blog, featuring over
2400+ articles written. They had an excellent exhibition of relevant, authoritative
and original content. However, they were frustrated by the friction the blog’s technical
execution had created around updates, changes, and overall site management needed
to accomplish their marketing objectives.
Rather than merely slapping on a new coat of paint and giving the blog a surface
level facelift, we proposed a more bold solution. We helped them by “replatforming”
the site with not just a new look and feel but a new foundation. While this route
may not have been the easiest one, we knew it would result in the longest term benefits,
eliminate need for future rework, and aid in the facilitation of a high-performing
content plan and empowered marketing team.
