COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is DURR more cost-effective than hiring in-house?

Hiring full-time creative talent involves recruitment costs, overhead, hardware, and ongoing payroll. With DURR, you get multi-disciplinary creative talent on a flexible monthly subscription with zero overhead.

How does DURR compare to traditional marketing agencies?

Traditional agencies require lengthy retainers, charge extra for scope changes, and take weeks to deliver basic revisions. DURR operates on a transparent monthly subscription with fast turnaround and no long-term lock-in.

Can I pause my subscription when my team is quiet?

Yes! If you finish your creative pipeline or take a holiday, simply pause your subscription. Your remaining billing cycle days are saved and ready to resume whenever you need new assets.
