Brand strategy and positioning

We turn where your brand stands, what it says to whom and what to do first into a written plan.

Who it's for

  • Brands that struggle to explain what they do and whose message is scattered
  • Those who want a roadmap before starting marketing
  • Teams with many ideas who can’t find the order

What we do

  • Reviewing the current state of the brand and the market from public sources, at the desk
  • Sharpening the positioning and the one-line statement of what your brand offers customers
  • Drafting the target audience and the customer’s decision path
  • Comparing competitors using public information
  • Writing the message framework and the brand voice
  • Preparing the market launch plan and the priority list for the first 90 days
  • Optional: a monthly brand review (for work where you share the data)

What we define together

Every project starts with a short introductory call; we clarify the need together. We put the following in writing from the start and submit it for your approval:

  • Starting point: we begin with a desk review of your site, your competitors and public sources. If you or another firm have done research, we read and interpret it.
  • The source of numbers: data with a source is used; if there is none, we say so plainly and tell you how to collect it.
  • Which parts of the plan are carried out first: for parts such as design, content, web and measurement, we can continue with our other services.

If you want to read first: our guides on how to build a brand strategy and how to build a brand identity walk through the steps in order.

One plan, nine areas.

One service’s output is often the next one’s input. Hover over or tap a button: see what it does, what it takes in and what it hands on.

Frequently asked questions

Do you do the research?

We do the desk research: public sources, and a review of your site and competitors. If you have customer interviews or survey results, we read and interpret them.

Can you give a market size based on figures?

If there's sourced data, yes, with its source. If not, we say so plainly and tell you how you could collect the data.

Will you help carry out the plan too?

For parts of the plan such as design, content, web and measurement, we can continue with our other services. The scope of each is written on its own page.

How long does it take, and how much does it cost?

It varies with the scope; after a short introductory call, we prepare a written framework and quote. We also settle the timeline together in the introductory call.

Let's see together where to start.
