Brand Strategy

Clarity — First and Always.

What makes your brand (or product, or service) unlike any other? Who are your target audiences? What do you want them to know, feel, and do? And how will we get them to know, feel, and do it? Strategy gets to the heart of these questions and maps a clear path forward, so you can deliver a clear, consistent, and compelling brand experience that serves your business goals.

Strategy, simply put:

Research

 

Research will mean different things for different clients, but at a minimum, we start every new client engagement with some form of brand immersion and discovery, so we can understand your business and the challenge at hand from your team’s perspective—and determine which outside perspectives might be missing. (Do we need to talk to customers? Clients? Salespeople or frontline associates? We can do that.) From laser-focused project briefings to on-site brand vision workshops—we plan and facilitate discovery sessions tailored to the outcome you’re trying to achieve, and from there determine what additional primary and secondary research will help us achieve our goals.

Message

 
While plenty of people use the terms messaging and copywriting interchangeably, they’re two distinct steps in the marketing process. Messaging is about determining what your brand (and only your brand) has to say. Copywriting is choosing the right words to say it. If you’re not confident about your key messages, we’ll help you craft them. From there, we can help you develop your brand voice and find the perfect words to bring those messages to life at every stage of the customer journey.

Method

 

Once we know where we’re going, we’ll build you a plan to get there. Whether that’s a multi-faceted marketing plan, a comms plans, a content calendar, or a combo platter with all of the above, every tactic we recommend will be tied to a strategy designed to drive your business forward.
