Ideas don’t come from job titles.
They come from people.
Creativity doesn't belong to one department.
Creative thinking isn’t just marketing.
Creativity isn’t about finding the most creative person in the room.
It’s about creating the best conditions for more people to think
The loudest voice
isn’t necessarily the one with the best idea.
A small thought is just a starting point
waiting for someone else to build it into something bigger.
Different minds
need different ways to think.
01/ Why whirr?
Businesses are full of great thinking that doesn’t always get heard
Most businesses aren’t short of creative thinking. They just need more people to have the tools, confidence and permission to participate.
Ideas don’t come from job titles. They come from people.
Creativity isn’t just for the marketing team, or the people who think of themselves as creative.
Different minds bring different perspectives - and sometimes a small thought just needs someone else to build on it.
That’s where whirr comes in
whirr /wɜː/ verb
a series of small sounds, moving so quickly they become one continuous thing
02/ What is whirr?
whirr gets thinking moving
Using a range of practical tools and techniques, whirr helps people and businesses:
explore challenges from different angles
challenge assumptions and get beyond habitual thinking
give different minds different ways into a problem
bring quieter voices alongside the confident
build on each other’s thinking and see the possibilities they might otherwise miss.
The goal of whirr isn’t to have the answer.
It’s to give everyone the confidence, tools and permission to explore one.
03/ Three ways to whirr

Thinking together
whirrkit
workshops
Giving your team the safe space, motivation and practical tools to think beyond the day-to-day
Practical, playful sessions that get different minds thinking together. Using a carefully chosen mix of thinking tools, we'll challenge assumptions, bring quieter voices into the conversation and give small thoughts somewhere to grow.
Thinking with you
1:1 thinking
partner sessions
Too close to something to see it differently? Sometimes another mind in the room is exactly what you need.
If you have a challenge, an opportunity or an idea that's been circling your head, we'll bring an outside perspective and some of the same thinking tools used in whirrkit workshops - to help you look at things differently, challenge assumptions and explore where it could go next.
You'll leave with more clarity on your next step - and the thinking behind it.
Thinking on your behalf
Thinking,
ongoing
Many small businesses know they need to do more with their marketing but aren't sure where to start. They need someone they can trust to think on their behalf.
Whirr works with a small number of clients on a retained basis - offering flexible, hands-on support, spotting opportunities, keeping good things moving and being there when something crops up.

An ongoing partnership for small businesses who'd value an experienced, thoughtful marketing mind - without the need for a full time hire.
