We create meaning
STRATEGIC IDEATION
We practice consumer-centric marketing, in that, we first define a consumer need, we adapt to that need and fill it with a custom execution based on our in-house services and extensive specialized external resources to deliver a package that fits your needs.
Research
A bit more involved than the plagiarism we all performed in middle school, certainly more informative than an average wikipedia search, and definitely more valuable than NEED SOMETHING HERE. Exactly. Without research what we’re left with is a bunch of holes. We strive to learn everything we can about you, your product, your consumer, employees, and your mission. Through competitive research, employee interviews, focus groups, and social media we are able to gain insights into your brand perception and target, and adjust our creative thinking accordingly.
GOALS
Q: How do we sell more stuff? A: By defining realistic, measurable goals founded by research and strategy and allocating resources into the mediums that make the most sense based on your current position. Carpet bombing a campaign across the country doesn’t necessarily mean it’s going to reach your target. Just as social media isn’t the definitive end all solution for every single effort. We will help you develop an effective creative plan to meet short and long term goals.
Planning
Using our research findings and goals to build a creative strategy that is founded in consumer insight and ultimately will help drive the media and creative itself, effectively, in the right direction. Jane Newman said, “relevant plus distinctive equals more effective.” A statement we believe whole-heartedly and strive for every step of the way. But without research and setting goals a plan doesn’t really do much good. The system works as a whole or it doesn’t work. It is in your best interest to take the time to search out the less obvious and think strategically.
BRAND DEVELOPMENT
Be definitive in who you are. Consistency is key from start to finish.
CONCEPTING
It is our passion to create. It is our objective to create engaging, goal-driven campaigns that enhance your brands’ perception in the market. Our concepts are driven by the facts and knowledge we have gained to this point. Considerations are taken and the creative process begins. We are mindful of your needs from the beginning. Every word and image deliberate in its intentions. And we believe it shows in the final product.
asset creation
We create graphic assets for all applications from start to finish. Brand graphics from logos and style guides, to print elements, online, broadcast, photography, etc. We create most everything in-house and have an exclusive list of partners for particular items we may not. We can work with your existing assets, such as photography and logos as well as integrate ourselves with an internal team, if necessary, to provide assets that work best for your needs.
Creative Strategy
Naming, visual and verbal guidelines, vision and mission statements, graphic assets, etc. These are just a few things necessary to create a brand. Through research and collaboration we help you create a meaningful brand experience consumers have come to expect. Whether your product is digital or tactile creating a brand that is relatable and attainable is crucial to success. More than just a logo, your brand is your story, positioning yourself as the expert or best in category. We will help you develop that voice and teach you to align with meaning and purpose.
