Nuts & Bolts


:: practical advice ::
 
Scramble your brand!:

1. Take a good look at the category you compete in. What are the trends driving it? What direction is it going?

2. Examine your competitors and the features and benefits their brands provide.

3. Any unmet consumer needs? These could be opportunities.

4. What are your strengths, capabilities? What's your passion, your tolerance for risk?

5. Add it all up. Can you provide something different, something better?

Reinventing The Brand
Just Be Better

For your product to become a successful brand it must satisfy a consumer need better than the competition. It's as simple as that. So why isn't creating brand success "so easy a caveman can do it"? Many reasons, but based on what we've seen over the years, it's because most marketers lack the vision required to set their products or services apart. To do something, anything better, to provide a reason for their customers to buy. Where to start? At the very basics...reinventing the brand.

The Need For Speed

Zipp wheels are engineered and designed to be different, and better. Skeptical? Don't be. This company literally reinvented the wheel, and with it, motion technology. The Zipp wheel's unique, patented dimple pattern and "toroidal bulged rim shape" provide better aerodynamics and speed-enhancing "forward lift". Carbon and kevlar provide lightness and rigidity. Pretty technical stuff, but all you really need to know is Zipp is just faster. Even the brand name sounds fast.

A Better Oatmeal?

Think about the reaction you get when you shove a spoonful of oatmeal into your mouth. Bland. Uninspiring. One-dimensional. Necessary fibrous evil. Maybe not the best way to start your day. Fortunately, oatmeal just got reinvented. Scrambled Oats™, a startup client of ours, has a different and better oatmeal. Actually, it's more than oatmeal. It's egg, meat, cheese, vegetables, and savory herbs. Scrambled Oats™ is more flavorful, and nutritious. It truly will "scramble" the way you think about the ordinary sticky, gooey stuff. The brand benefit: energy. The packaging: Bright, colorful and inviting. The opportunity: Brand Success!
