Family
Family is the core of everything. Brands that want to succeed must understand the “Core Four” values, and reflect them back in every aspect of their marketing.
This is our proven 5-step process for identifying your brand’s sustainable path forward:
Defining the operative set of values within your category
Defining which values are core to your brand, and which values are currently being expressed though your brand’s marketing efforts
Learning which values are owned, competed over, and shared by other brands in your category
Identifying the “blank space” in your category—which values the brands in your category are not currently activating around—as well as values over which there is unnecessary competition
Developing a creative blueprint and brand playbook to fill that category “blank space,” while also re-directing creative away from any wasteful values competition
The outcome is a data-informed and stronger market positioning, a more precise visual identity and brand expression strategy, messaging strategy based on ownable values, customer relevance and resonance, and an audience prioritization blueprint.
