You can only have two — Good, Fast, or Cheap.
Negotiating creative work is always about compromising one of these three things. We are happy to help you, and this game can help you decide what's most important to you.
Switch on the options that you most want in this project to find the priorities that best align with your goals. You can only select two.
What we can deliver: We can do the job quickly and make it excellent quality, but it will need to cost more.
What we can deliver: We can do a great job, cheaply, for you, but we need to fit it in around our other jobs, and we can't give it many resources, so it will take a long time.
What we can deliver: If you want it fast and cheap, we can do it, but we will need to drop the quality to get it done in time with fewer resources.
Sorry. We can't do all three. Good work takes time and resources.

💰 Good + Fast = Expensive
You want high-quality work delivered quickly. This requires premium resources, skilled professionals, and possibly overtime work. Expect to pay a premium for this combination. The trade-off is cost - it won't be cheap.
⏰ Good + Cheap = Slow
You want high-quality work at a budget-friendly price. This is achievable, but it will take time. Quality work at low cost means careful planning, efficient processes, and patience. The trade-off is speed - it won't be fast.
⚠️ Fast + Cheap = Poor Quality
You want work done quickly and cheaply. While this is possible, corners will likely be cut to meet both time and budget constraints. The trade-off is quality - expect compromises in the final result.
