Our process, which is based on best practices and proven methods, accounts for the many variables and details at play in developing your marketing communications. As such, it leaves little to chance and ensures every project is on target and on message from the beginning.
We call this the Discovery Phase partly because we spend most of our time asking questions so we can gain a deep understanding of your organization and partly because it sounds better than Interrogation Phase.
Once we have an accurate sketch of your company, we widen our focus to look for information and data that can complete the picture.
We compare your current position in the marketplace to those of your competitors and evaluate your communications against those developed by the competition. If necessary, we also conduct primary or secondary research as well as a Touchpoint Analysis to assess all the potential marketing tactics at our disposal.Course of action. Blueprint. Battle plan. Call it what you want. We call it essential for creating campaigns that are fully integrated and build momentum for your company.
This set of guidelines establishes the desired contents, purpose and outcome for each communication as well as the hierarchy of messaging and the visual look-and-feel. It also includes our recommendations on the tactical implementation of each communication as well as project timelines.What do ideas have in common with energy drinks and chocolates at Kear|Stevens?
