Thankful for your good words

Enjoy some gratitude on us.

At Amenable, we’re profoundly grateful for the working relationships that have come our way by happy clients making connections and referring people to us. In fact, most of our clients come to us that way. We want to thank you for believing in our work enough to make the connection, and we want to do that by doing what we do best—offering you more work.


For free.

How does it work?

Gratitude hours are a referral system, so each time someone mentions you when signing a contract with us, you’ll get five free hours of work from our team. You can put these toward anything that comes to mind—if you’ve got a small project you want finished or you want to dedicate some extra focus to a larger ongoing project, the choice is yours.

Don’t have a current project? We offer a gift card in lieu of gratitude hours as a way of saying "hey, thanks!" So many of our clients come through referrals, and it means a lot when you trust us enough to send one of your friends or professional acquaintances our way.

What can you do with five hours?

A lot. You can do a lot, but we’ve put together a few ideas to help you brainstorm:

  • Design: Our team can update a form that needs a facelift, improve a slide deck that is lacking clarity, develop curriculum, or create visuals such as worksheets, teaching materials, data charts, annual report graphics, maps, coloring pages, and Christmas cards. We could do a small project for a fundraising event, outreach event, sermon series, community outreach event, or a holiday like Christmas or Easter.
  • Writing: We can update your team’s bios, develop new website content and blog content, or write social media, email, and video scripts.
  • Process & Strategy: Our team can create a communication calendar, do project planning for a particular initiative/campaign, or develop strategies for things like marketing, general giving, or year-end giving.
  • Templates: Our team could develop a branded, customizable template for you to use for proposals, forms, social media, slides, or certificates.
  • Swag: We can develop and design brand swag—bags, stickers, shirts, lanyards, coffee mugs, water bottles, backpacks, notebooks, sweatshirts + t-shirts + onesies + bibs, oh my!
  • Collateral: Our team can create new business cards, letterhead, envelopes, notecards, connect cards, name tags, email signatures, and signage.
  • Social Media: Our team can complete a review and audit of your social media accounts, do some target audience and engagement trend research, and then connect with you for a coaching call.
  • Marketing Support: We can create content and visuals for a marketing campaign or initiative. We could also develop tools to help you market and build brand awareness, such as flyers, promo postcards, banners, tablecloths, pop-up banners, downloadable resources, yard signs, door hangers, or posters.

How do I explain Amenable in a nutshell?

If you refer someone to us, it’s helpful for them to know what exactly we do—we create, strengthen, and restore brands for people who care about people.

So, what does that mean? Essentially, we’re here to handle anything that falls under the umbrella of tending a healthy brand—things like brand design & development, strategy & positioning, physical implementation, brand awareness marketing, and organizational health coaching. If you’ve got a specific project in mind, reach out, and we’ll let you know how we can help!

04.
How do I refer a friend?

Simply share why and how much you love us. Tell them why their lives have been empty without Amenable, and then shoot us a message to tell us you’re sending someone our way. If your friend signs up for a project, we’ll send you a message to let you know you’ve got the hours.

05.
Is there a limit on the number of people I can refer?

Nope! You can receive gratitude hours for each and every person/organization you refer who signs a contract with us.

06.
Who can I refer to earn rewards?

Only new clients may be referred.

07.
Can I receive hours even if I’m not a current client of Amenable?

Yes! If you are a past client or even a future client, you can still receive “gifted” hours to use within six months. However, both past and future clients must sign a new, active contract with Amenable in order to use these hours. After signing a contract, you’ll find the hours waiting in your account.

08.
What happens if I go over my five “gratitude” hours?

Don’t worry—we’ll keep you updated along the way so that you know when adding another task or revision might cause you to exceed the five “gifted” hours. Any additional hours would be charged at our regular rate of $145/hour (or at your retainer rate if you are a retainer client).

09.
Do my gifted hours expire?

Yes, these hours need to be used within six months of the signed contract.

10.
How can I find out if the project I have in mind can be completed in five hours?

If you’re an active client, just send us a message in Basecamp. If you’re a past client without an active Basecamp project, you can email Riley Skeen, our Growth & Operations Manager.

11.
What if I don’t have a project right now?

We know sometimes you don’t have a project waiting in the wings. If that’s you, we’ll send you a thank-you gift card from a brand we admire. Check out our partner for this quarter below!

I still have questions . . .

Great! We have answers. Reach out to our Business Development Strategist, Jenna Stiller—she’s got you covered!
