What is creative strategy

Creative strategy is the plan or approach that outlines how a brand or product is communicated to appeal to its target audiences and achieve specific business objectives. The strategy considers the brand’s unique attributes, target audience, competitors and current market trends to develop a concept and message that will resonate and differentiate. The strategy is to identify and define the core elements that provide momentum and meaning, such as the purpose, values, and personality which then informs how the brand is articulated.

Creative strategies are essential to ensuring that the brands we create deliver the most value and return on objectives.

We start any creative project by firstly understanding your goals and what you would like your creative work to achieve. Secondly, we’ll ask you to consider who your target market is. Who will benefit from your creative work? If you have specific targets in mind, we will take these into account. From here, we move into our inhouse creative process, which includes four key stages:

Discover

Research – the team carries out research and gathers a host of information relating to the target audience and project’s goals. This critical stage gives our creative work has a strong foundation and understand of the subject and audience

Brainstorming – our creative team members come together to generate various ideas and concepts. This collaborative method allows us to explore different approaches and define a direction for the project.

Define

Here we refine the initial ideas into tangible concepts that can be developed further.

At this stage the core elements – purpose, position, objectives, values and personality are agreed and finalised with the client.

Design

This includes producing layouts, colour schemes, typography and any other visual elements that complement the objectives of the project.

Feedback – We will ask for your feedback and input to ensure that the project is in line with your expectations. This stage is vital to help refine the strategy and make any necessary changes. Your feedback will be incorporated into the project and adjustments will be made until your approval is obtained.

Deliver

We deliver all the relevant brand guidelines and relevant collateral including templates for the client to begin using immediately (which gives them total control and reduces costs). We also prepare and supply files for digital or print and ensuring that all elements are correctly organised and formatted
