The
Best of Both Worlds: Creativity is prized by marketers because a creative approach to business problems costs no more than a “business as usual” approach--yet it helps set a company apart from competitors, opens new sources of growth and creates excitement by breaking established patterns. If you are like most people we work with, you view your advertising agency as your prime creative resource. But the business of ad agencies is making commercials, and that’s how their most imaginative people spend their time. So where can you find the innovative thinking you need? You could call in a management consulting firm. Most of them, however, are staffed with layers of costly “by the book” people who deal in the expected. They deliver lengthy treatises but rarely surprising solutions. That’s where we come in. We bring you a blend of marketing discipline and creativity that produces surprising solutions. We attack a business problem: take it apart, define and redefine it. Often we pull facts out of old data that lead to new answers. Most importantly, we understand the marketplaces in which you do business: the customers, the competitors, the trade, the media. Strategic creativity is essential if new brands are to be created that can beat the odds. It is also essential to revitilize, extend, or grow established brands. |
