DeHavilland works as an extension of your organization, defining the success of your efforts on your terms and developing a tailored outreach strategy to achieve your goals. We operate according to the following principles:

  • Client collaboration - Our focus is on success as you define it, which means that our work has to uniquely reflect the goals, resources, strengths, and culture of your organization. We will work closely with you through multiple checkpoints to make sure that your voice is our voice.
  • A learning process - We want to do more than come up with the right answers: we want to help you build your understanding of the education market, thereby increasing your internal capabilities and allowing you to drive your campaign with the confidence that comes from knowledge.
  • Project fees, not hourly billing - We work with you to set an up-front flat fee for our services, eliminating any concerns you have about unexpected costs or how much time we're spending to achieve your objectives. We believe in paying for results, not hours burned.
  • Satisfaction guaranteed - If you are dissatisfied for any reason with the results of our efforts, we'll keep going until we've gotten it right.
