New innovative platform and redefinition for Someone

Someone is a recruitment and selection agency for online professionals. To expand Someone’s range and to highlight their expertise, the decision was made to develop an innovative online platform. This platform offers room to the ambitions of online (interim) professionals, instead of being simply a matching site. This platform allows employers and professionals to find each other easily without the intervention of an agency.

We helped clarifying the brand promise and translating this to the platform, by implementing the platform, generating the awareness campaign and applying process optimisation of the various figureheads within the organisation.
