brand strategy

Usually done during a rebrand, establishment of a new company or subsidiary, or post-merger. This effort defines or redefines your brand platform.

Crucial elements such as purpose, vision and mission, as well as your archetype and personality are developed as major parts for moving your company forward. We address your culture by establishing values and focus, as well as creating a perspective on operationalising your mission.

This platform creates the foundation for strategic development, management, culture development, messaging, taglines, value propositions and general communications.

Products need to be loved and trusted, and with that in mind, need clear branding to advance into and stay in the customers mind.

We develop product brands like we do companies, with focus on simplicity and accessibility on all levels. Products and solutions often require the same analytics and strategic brand development methods as companies, they are however more externally focused compared to company brands.

Based on a given scenario analysis we define an optimal structure and architecture for your portfolio. Keeping in mind organizational, structural and cultural opportunities and barriers.

We aim to simplify portfolios and create the most manageable and efficient setup, enabling growth and development, and intuitive customer journeys.

90% of European employees would leave their job if a stronger brand would offer them a comparable position on similar terms.

Developing a strong employer brand demands holistic focus on internal and external stakeholders alike and requires next generation human resource management which we help you develop.

Developing a name and verbal identity for your company or product requires a certain methodology and should result in strong and preferably unique and memorable set of words.

Based on the brand platform and overall positioning we develop naming and verbal identities in close cooperation with you. Based on internationally proven methods, we creatively identify naming opportunities and secure these through trademarking and implementation support.

The brand story and overall core narrative is key to how your brand is perceived. This creative story manifests the base for your communication, your emotional connections to your audiences, and your culture. Wholly based on your brand strategy and positioning, this story and narrative enables messaging, taglines and even sets the stage for overall marketing and communications.

Understanding where and how your stakeholders interact with you, and creating the desired experiences in all touchpoints is the ultimate goal.

Creating a sound strategy and agile improvement process is key to our approach. Internal alignment between marketing, comms and customer facing people and process are critical to managing your touch-points and eventually succeeding in building great experiences.

Once we have analyzed the way your customers inform themselves and eventually buy from you, we can address improvements, simplification, and customer focused changes that lead to higher conversion and sales success rates.

We develop and revise, microtest and retest until we are certain we have reached the optimal level possible within the envelope of budget, tech and resources.
