Question 1

Do you price brand activations as a fixed fee?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You get a fixed-price scope of work based on your brief. If the scope changes, we flag the cost impact before you commit. No hidden extras. No time-and-materials surprises.

Question 2

Are venue fees included in your brand activation quote?

Accepted Answer

No — venue fees are always passed through at cost and shown as a separate line on the quote. We source the venue on your behalf where useful, negotiate the rate, and share the paperwork. Never marked up, never hidden.

Question 3

Do brand activation costs scale with venue size?

Accepted Answer

Partly. Bigger venues need more scenic to fill and more staff to run, but the relationship isn't linear doubling square metres doesn't double cost. Venue fees scale more predictably: a bigger or better postcode almost always means a bigger venue invoice.

Question 4

What's the difference between scenic cost and production cost?

Accepted Answer

Scenic cost = the physical build (timber, joinery, paint, print, fixtures). Production cost = everything around it AV, lighting, rigging, power, install and strike crew, project management, insurance. On a mid-scale London brand activation, scenic is usually 40–50% of the quote; production is 30–40%; venue and third-parties make up the rest.

Question 5

What do agency builds typically cost in London?

Accepted Answer

Most fall between £10k and £450k+. Small scenic moments £10–25k, mid-scale pop-ups and activations £25–60k, full multi-week productions from £60k up to £450k+. We'll commit to a fixed number against your brief rather than time-and-materials.
