Time Flies When You're On A Deadline

To celebrate our anniversary, we’re stepping back and reflecting
on the key moments that have defined our growth as an
agency—15 years of milestones, accomplishments, and
partnership.

2008 - 2023

2008

The Beginning of... Everything

On one side, The MOD Studio was founded with a vision of using dynamic, customer-focused design to impact businesses and help them reach their goals. On another, The Intelechy Group was launched and ready to make that same impact with forward-thinking, data-driven strategies and solutions. Two different starts to two different paths—headed for the same destination.

Our Customer Growth Philosophy Was Born

By sitting down with clients and unpacking their business goals, we discovered a universal need: Marketing approaches that drive actionable, personalized communications for customers, especially in the renewals space. We then began building integrated and dynamic content strategies to reach consumers while ensuring frictionless experiences—thus establishing our customer growth philosophy.

Fortune 500 Official

By rolling our sleeves up, hitting the ground running, and proving the impact of our partnership, our reputation as valuable partners began to take flight. Then we landed our first Fortune 500 client, and we knew that flight was just beginning.

Affirmation Through Recognition

A short 4 years after launch, we were already recognized with over 20 awards across both agencies—from accomplishments in MarCom and data solutions to creative design and digital experiences. And while this recognition was humbling (to say the least), the larger achievement was its affirmation that our partnership was valued.

2013

Trailblazing with Digital Experiences

With larger organizations becoming unsatisfied with flat, one-size-fits-all customer experiences, we began getting tapped in to help personalize journeys based on specific user needs. From designing and developing targeted microsites and personalized touchpoints to the fully-automated system that drives the campaigns—clients were not only delivering better experiences, they now had the data to back it up.

Outgrowing Our Environment

As the strength of our capabilities grew, so did the demand for our services. With that demand came the expansion of our agencies—more designers, more data scientists, more automation experts, more of us. We were becoming official, and we needed a new office to prove it.

2015

Blending Services, Compounding Value

While The MOD Studio and The Intelechy Group became their own independent successes, it became clear the clients we were serving had needs that spanned the entire spectrum of business—from data-driven strategy and solutions to the creative materials that shape and tell their story. We were already sharing an office, so going to market together was only natural.

Embracing The (Customer) Journey

As the world moved toward personalized, digital customer journeys, we became obsessed with the strategies and infrastructures that supported them. We knew a strong CDP was the key to unlocking better experiences for customers, but there wasn’t a singular magic button solution—and bespoke tech stacks for unique business needs became our backbone.

Nurturing The Ecosystem Behind The Project

Once we blended the design expertise of MOD with the data prowess of Intelechy, we began to double down on “unconventional” ways to serve our clients. By applying a consultative spin to our services, we found an abundance of untapped insights and value exist by continuing nurturing projects long after launch. We were no longer interested in dropping deliverables on client doorsteps—we preferred jumping in the trenches with them.

A Client-Focused Union

After several years of compounding the value The MOD Studio and The Intelechy Group on a case-by-case basis, we decided to make our integration official. Some called it a merger, we call it a fancy title for the same work we’d been doing—delivering marketing experience, sales savvy, design expertise, and technological prowess into one strong, independent agency: MODintelechy.

Our Forever Home

Once again, our team was outgrowing our office and looking for a new place to spread our collective wings. That’s when we stumbled upon the John Rutledge House, a historic dwelling nestled within the charismatic Hyde Park neighborhood of Austin, Texas. We liked it so much, we bought it—solidifying a true place to call home.

Spreading Our Wings For Small Business

As the world adjusted to the new normal, we focused on controlling the controllable—ourselves. Organizational shifts were made, business models were reconceptualized, and entirely new companies were born. To better serve our scrappier projects, we launched Four Wings—a brand marketing shop built to better serve our small business clients.

Expanding Our Footprint

As the momentum of our agency growth took on a mind of its own, we became obsessed with identifying the most exceptional talent possible to fill our expanding needs—and that meant looking further than our backyard. From New York and Colorado to Washington DC and more—we were suddenly in 7 different states with a deeper variety of talent, perspectives, and alignment toward our collective mission.

Innovating on Our Innovation

As our relationships with clients grew stronger, we began identifying opportunities to rewrite or expand on our playbook. We started replacing one-pagers with podcasts, walking decks with animated videos, static deliverables with in-person sessions—inspiring our clients with storytelling touchpoints that truly stick.

Gratitude

We don’t have a punchy blurb for this one, we’re just grateful—for the clients that put their trust in us, for the opportunity to do what we love, and for the team members that have helped us grow along the way. Thank you for being part of the MODintelechy family, we can’t wait to see what the next 15 years will bring.
