The things you explain over and over

Nobody takes a shortcut because they haven't read the policy. They take it because it's late and it's quicker. A comic can put a reader inside that decision, let them feel why it was reasonable, and then show them what it costs — which is the one thing a slide deck cannot do.

Free to build. You pay nothing until you have seen your cover.

Picture it

Comics this could be

Each one grew from a single line. Yours starts with whatever you tell us, and every page is about your business.

  1. A nervous graduate's first ninety days on the depot floor, ending with the morning she's the one being asked.

  2. A rushed driver, one unstrapped pallet and the moment it shifts on the ramp.

  3. The week the new system went in, told by the person who was certain the old one was better.

What we'll ask

Questions written for this comic

No generic form. These are the questions this kind of comic asks, so the pages are built from what only you know.

  • Who is in itThe people in the story and what each of them is to the company, with up to three photos each, so they look like themselves on every page.
  • What's a new starter walking into?e.g. First week on a night shift at a busy distribution depot
  • Who's it for?Who's going to read it. This changes what the story assumes they already know.

Where it gets used

One comic, several jobs

Used for induction packs, toolbox talks, safety refreshers, change rollouts — and for recruiting, where a comic about what the job is really like goes home from a careers fair.

  4. The day it nearly went wrong
