Common questions.
What is the difference between brand strategy and creative strategy?
Brand strategy defines the foundations – who you are for, your positioning and your point of difference. Creative strategy turns those foundations into campaigns and briefs. I work across both, so the brand and its expression stay joined up.
Do you work with startups as well as established brands?
Yes. I have created brands from scratch – including Mettle, RTGS.Global and Old Mutual Bank – and repositioned established ones such as Reebok. The process flexes to the stage you are at.
How long does it take?
Engagements range from a focused strategy sprint to a larger project. We agree the scope and timing after discussing the problem.
