From in-house to
full house.
If the ideal team for building your brand does not work at Bou, they likely work with Bou. Our extended team is called Bou & Co. and it includes 10,000+ curated creative freelancers, and 100+ boutique agencies and studios, from 100+ countries.
Hire from Bou & Co.Join Bou & Co.
Our curated freelancers have worked with very nice brands:
10,000+ freelancers
It’s simple math: the more creatives we have on our platform, the higher the chances of finding exactly the right one for the task at hand.
100+ boutiques
Sometimes the creatives we need are already working together as a boutique agency or studio, providing us with even higher creative value, volume, and speed.
100+ countries
Last time we checked, we didn’t have anyone from Antarctica. But apart from that, our network covers all the other continents.
100% curated
Our in-house team curates every single freelancer joining our platform and makes sure that their skills and experience match our high standards.
We curate and match with our proprietary software
Existing tools weren’t cutting it, so we built our own tech for finding world-class freelancers, boutique agencies, and creative studios, and matching them with world-class brands. It’s not just a matchmaking tool, but a curation platform that our in-house team uses to evaluate who’s exactly the right person or team for the job.
70+ world-class creative skills
Art direction, copywriting, web development, PR, graphic design, performance marketing, media relations, 2D/3D animation, photography, videography... we can guarantee that the list goes on until you see exactly the creative skill you need. And the quality is of course top-tier, proven by work examples from some of the world's most iconic brands.
Bou only hires the best, and that goes for our partners too
Verification
We confirm that the profile is a genuine professional or company with solid qualifications and credentials.
Evaluation
Bou’s in-house team reviews the quality of the freelancer’s or company’s work, and the relevance of their experience. For example, our senior designers evaluate freelance designers and studios, our senior developers evaluate freelance developers and agencies, and so on.
Matching
Bou’s in-house team shortlists the best fitting freelancers or companies for each use case and client brief. We do this tailor-made by hand, using our platform’s matching features and applying our own industry expertise
Interviews
We contact the shortlisted candidates and interview them 1-on-1 to confirm their suitability, availability, and excitement for the project. Then we choose the best one and hire them for the job.
Feedback
After the project is finalized, we ask the client’s feedback on the collaboration. We also ask feedback from the freelancer or the company, and evaluate their performance ourselves. This feedback will then be acknowledged in future cases.
So, how is this different from…
Creative agencies are often fairly local, including those that are part of global chains. Agencies also tend to specialize in some pretty specific areas of brand work, like design or advertising only. Bou & Co. has a foothold in 100+ countries and represents 70+ creative skills. Combined with Bou’s in-house service offering, we can provide more creative services to more markets with higher quality than traditional creative agencies ever can.
Join as a boutique
We’re looking for boutique agencies and studios especially in the fields of animation, video, photography, research & insights, events & stunts, design, marketing, PR & communications, and web development.
Join as a freelancer
We connect the best creative freelancers to the brands that perfectly fit their interests and expertise. Just submit your profile and we’ll be in touch when a suitable opportunity appears.
Wolt
As a global brand in fast-moving business, we need creative partners like Bou who take active ownership and deliver with precision.
