An entire embedded team. Placed from scratch.
Wrapmate needed a production design team that could handle volume, maintain quality, and integrate into their workflow from day one. Ghost Sherpa staffed the whole unit. Designers, QA specialists, and a team lead, working as an in-house team within weeks.

The Client
Wrapmate is a U.S.-based business that designs, sells, and coordinates installation of custom vehicle wraps nationwide. At their scale, design output is a production challenge as much as a creative one. Volume is high, specs are exacting, and every wrap that goes on a vehicle is a moving impression for their client. Quality and output volume aren't competing priorities. Both have to win.
The Engagement
Ghost Sherpa staffed a complete embedded team: vehicle wrap designers with the technical and visual skills to produce at Wrapmate's required volume, QA specialists to catch errors before they reach production, and a team lead to keep the workflow moving and the output consistent.
The team was placed inside Wrapmate's production tools from the first week, working their systems, learning their standards, and operating as an extension of the in-house org rather than a vendor handed a brief.
What it built.
Full Team Placed
Designers, QA specialists, and a team lead. All roles staffed through one engagement
Scales with Volume
Design output moves with order volume, not capped by what an in-house team can absorb
Why this matters for you
Most agencies hire one at a time. Sometimes you need to build a team fast.
Single-hire staffing is the default because it feels manageable. But when you land a client or scope that requires a whole production capability, not just one person, the traditional hiring model breaks down. It's too slow, too disconnected, and nobody's thinking about how the roles fit together.
Ghost Sherpa can staff a team, not just a seat. If you need a creative pod, a digital team, or a full embedded capability built from the ground up, that's a conversation worth having. The architecture matters as much as the individual hires.
