Strategy

We’re not in the business of granting wishes!

We approach strategic thinking with one thing in mind – your objective. Too often sound strategic though is overtaken by creative exuberance, or the shining light of creativity is suffocated by overthinking.

The fact is that neither can thrive without the other. Great strategy is both rational and emotional, logical and creative.

We will find the right balance to achieve your objectives, swiftly and elegantly, while delivering tangible commercial results.

The way we do it is simple:

• Insight – Always starting with your customer and their journey to you, we seek out deep insight that will tell us how they act, think and feel and how we can persuade them to engage with your business
• Systematic Process – We adhere to a fundamental, iterative approach to planning that leaves no stone unturned and leaves nothing to chance.
• Full Funnel Thinking – We can’t help but think about what is going to happen to your customer at every stage of their journey and how one stage effects the other. It is at the core of everything we do.
• Measurement First – We don’t leave success to chance and we don’t think of measurement after the fact. We a driven by numbers and are obsessed with making your numbers add up.

OK, so maybe we do grant wishes…

Fishermen know that the secret to a great catch is all about knowing where to cast your net, what to fish and which bait to use, all the while staying one step ahead of your rivals.

Marketing strategy is that simple, but for some reason often gets overcomplicated and confusing. The line between strategy and tactics gets blurred and what often passes for strategy is nothing more than a handful of interesting activities that yield no long-term returns.

We aim to bring clarity, helping our clients define rock solid strategies that are built on the stable foundations of marketing fundamentals.

Through our consultative approach, we will guide you through the key stages of strategic planning to define the optimal marketing mix:

• Product & Price: Market research and validation of customer universe, appetite and demand
• Distribution: Sales/Recruitment channels and Customer Journey to Conversions
• Promotion: Market segmentation, targeting, positioning, communications and media strategies

Effective advertising and promotional campaigns are not the product of one single, great idea, but a collection of great ideas that are united by a single thought.

Being single minded isn’t easy but being effective isn’t hard. The trick is to recognise that great ideas can come from anywhere and that collaboration is king.

Our strength is in our ability to get best out of our people and our clients to unearth the single unifying thought that can be carried all the way through everything we do in our campaign. From initial creative ideation to the final point of conversion.

It begins with insight derived from a deep understanding of our client’s business, customers, competition and objectives to define the relationship between our client and their customers and define our value proposition by target audience.

We use that insight to define the journey of persuasion from the top to the bottom of the funnel, setting specific communications and campaign objectives at each stage of the journey from awareness to conversion.

This strategic roadmap fuels our creative, content and media strategies, producing truly integrated campaign strategies that leverage the power of paid, earned and owned media to deliver highly effective advertising campaigns.
