Ep 85 | Accenture employees to Webflow Enterprise Agency Founders | with Tim Janes & Dan Foster Webflail

Today my guests are Tim Janes and Dan Foster, co-founders of MakeBuild Studio - a design and innovation studio from London in the UK.

Tim’s background as a visual designer and Dan’s background digital designer and UX consultant meant these 2 were a power duo when starting Makebuild 4 years ago.

Though they have designed and built a lotttt of Webflow websites, they have also been experimenting emerging technologies like AR. In fact, recently, they made an AR project with Fruitella - the sweet brand. To help launch a new jelly sweets, they created a world and then select a creature which you could see in your living room on your phone screen.

Makebuild have recently hired Liam Mews and Greg Faulkner so they’re flying high and growing a team but we want to know about how they got here don’t we?!

The failures that we’ll talk about in this episode are:
1) Not scaling up the team early enough
2) Not niching down early enough
3) Not focusing on producing great work
