The client faced ongoing challenges with their outsourced creative agency, which struggled to maintain consistent brand messaging. Content creation became inefficient, requiring up to 30% more time due to extensive revisions and prolonged back-and-forth communication. These inefficiencies led to delayed campaign launches, increased costs, and misalignment with the brand's voice. To regain control and reduce operational costs, the client sought a comprehensive in-house solution for their creative services

Cella, a Randstad Digital company, developed a fully-managed embedded creative team, bringing the client’s creative services in-house. In just three months, we sourced and onboarded top-tier talent, including senior art directors, copywriters, and production managers, precisely tailored to the client’s needs. This embedded team took ownership of aligning the brand’s voice, optimizing content production, and ensuring consistent messaging across all platforms.
To promote long-term team stability, we introduced retention strategies such as annual raises, promotions, and performance reviews, resulting in an average team retention of 2.5 years.
Our strategy included:
- automation: Streamlined routine tasks to enhance speed and reduce manual intervention.
- data integration: Implemented advanced systems to provide real-time insights, enabling faster, data-driven decisions.
