What we do

We create deep emotional connections with people through the delivery of new products, services, processes, strategy and ultimately experiences. We do this by uncovering latent needs, behaviours and desires. Using a creative consumer centric approach in the identification, development and execution of new tangible ideas to deliver value and growth for your business..

How we do it

Our process entails three main elements; Identify, create and validate. During ‘identify’ we objectively gather relevant information to create the building blocks for idea generation. Immersing ourselves in the world of the consumer. In ‘creation’ we use tools & techniques for structured concept generation as opposed to random brainstorming. We use a series of creative thinking tools and the findings from our identification work to act as building blocks for our ‘ideation’, knowing that our proposals will be firmly rooted in deep consumer insights.

How we do it

Our validation phase is all about learning more about our proposals with real consumers through experimentation and careful measurement. We test the concept and/ or underlying assumptions with consumers preferably in the form of a live market test rather than traditional focus groups.
