Our  USP  -­‐  Bias  for  Ac>on

Our  emphasis  on  solving  problems  or   crea3ng  opportuni3es  as  simply  as  possible…

What’s  the  problem  or  opportunity, what’s  a  realis3c  approach  to  fixing  it, what’s  the  scope  and  constraints?

2.  Design

A  series  of  crea3ve  techniques,  tools  or workshops  dedicated  to  iden3fying solu3ons  for  tes3ng.

3.  Deploy

According  to  internal  resources,  full,  part or  no  involvement  in  the  implementa3on, working  with  specialists  across  many brand  categories.

It’s OK to be vague!

Sugru…

We  sell  online  but  want   to  go  retail,  but  we’re   not  sure  if  our   packaging  is  strong   enough.

Ask  an  expert!  

Thursday, 13 June 2013

Background

Sugru makes a great case study - not only in its origins as an Art School project, but also in the success it has built on-line, and the many cool places that it sells, such as The Design Museum!

However, Sugru is ready for a new chapter.

Clearly, to take Sugru to a sizeable and serious brand scale, volume sales are required from the traditional retail channel.

Already, brands such as Maplin and Halfords* have expressed a high interest in stocking Sugru, but in its current format, it’s not ‘retail ready’.

Unlike on-line, packaging has to perform as the primary communicator - name, proposition, usage and benefit….all in the space of a few square centimetres!

Air has been invited to submit a proposal on supporting FFF to create this important new packaging over the next few months.

(* It is important that we do not build our retail proposition too closely around these brands, to allow us flexibility for other prospects.)

Thursday, 13 June 2013

These photos show everyday products where

Sugro could play a role…

Key thought…

Sugru has been described as being from the future.

It works differently, it is different, it sounds and looks different.

It is imperative that we recognise the rules of retailing and capturing consumer attention, whilst maintaining our uniqueness.

We need to be disruptive.

We won’t have the luxury of in-store POS or of multiple facings.

We can’t rely on shoppers coming to the repair fixture and then working out what we can do for them.

We have to reach out to them - be close to the products that we can help with and be

‘in their face’.

…to ‘make the sale’ with clear and engaging visual packaging inside 20 seconds.

Thursday, 13 June 2013

Specifics…

..or objectives, but this is what we have to aim for:

1 . Communication flexibility

A pack system that allows us to customise the end use to the retailer’s product range and shopper base.

2. Communication efficacy

This is first about creating super-effective content, and then designing it in a super-effective style.

Recognise the rules and then break them.

Recognise that shoppers don’t read!

3. Small as a Retailing Strength

The bigger our packs, the more grounded we’ll have to be to a location.

The smaller our packs are, the more portable we can be in-store next to ‘connected’ products.

Clip strips should be a start-point to our thinking.

4. Bold and Brave

Sugru has a very distinctive look already - whilst it makes sense to keep a strong and consistent brand identity, we may have to compromise on the visual equities to be more disruptive and retail ready.

Thursday, 13 June 2013

Proposed Approach

This is likely to be an iterative process, where we shall refine our approach and the necessary tasks as we evolve.

We propose the following as a start-out but logical methodology:

1. Retail & Pack Immersion

2. Create the Communication Content

3. Create Design Concepts

4. Test Concepts

5. Refine & Implement

 Agencies  -­‐  why  use  them?

A  strong  philosophy  and  experience   of  the  power  of  design.

Live,  breathe,  eat,  sleep  design.

Strong  lateral  thinkers.

Fine  tuned  at  working  effec>vely   and  efficiently.

100%  resource  and  focus  on a  problem.

Less  affected  by  internal  constraints.

Preparing  a  Brief  -­‐  the  basics

  Background           -­‐  reason  for  brief

  Objec>ves         -­‐  what  you  want  to  

                                   achieve.

  Strategy         -­‐  what  needs  to  be  

                                   created.

  Scope           -­‐  how  wide  can  

                           they  think.

  Constraints         -­‐  what  has  to  be                                    

                                 observed.

      Plan  /  Process       -­‐  >mings,  deadlines,                            

                                                                                       other  influences

  What  you  want         -­‐  from  the  agency.

Choosing  an  Agency  

Word  of  mouth  first  -­‐  ask  colleagues  or   friends  for  recommenda>ons.  

Window  shop  -­‐  website,  brochures,  case   studies  examples.

Shortlist  three  agencies  maximum.

 

If  possible,  meet  the  agencies  at  their  offices.

Be  specific  about  expecta>ons:

-­‐  core  capabili>es.

-­‐  relevant  case  studies.

-­‐  meet  the  team  you  would  be  

   working  with.

-­‐  request  10mins  of  their  thoughts  

   on  the  task.

Select  on  the  basis  of  capabili>es,  experience,   team,  and  ins>nct.

Thursday, 13 June 2013

Structural  Design  Exper>se

Structural  Design  looks  easy!  

Ideas  are  easy  -­‐  making  them work  is  a  totally  different  capability.

Too  many  agencies  say  yes  to  Structural  

Design  when  they   should  say  no!

Ensure  the  are  trained  Structural  /  

Industrial  Designers.

They  talk  confidently  about  materials   and  processes    -­‐  not  plas>c  and  card!

They  talk  knowledgably  and   passionately  about  past  case  studies.

Thursday, 13 June 2013

Preparing  a  Brief  -­‐  Easy  Wins

Ask  if  the  agency  have  a  preferred  briefing   template.

Go  to  the  agency  -­‐  brief  the  team.

Encourage  breakfast  or  lunch.

Add  colour  and  excitement  to  the  brief.

Keep  words  to  a  minimum  -­‐  crea>ves   don’t  read!

Sum  up  with  a  dis>lled  sentence.

Request  that  the  agency  feeds  back  with  a   proposal  that  describes  the  crea>ve   challenges  and  their  considered  approach   to  methodology.

Thursday, 13 June 2013

 Preparing  a  Brief  -­‐  added  value

 

A  short  history  of  the  brand’s  evolu>on.

Brand  ambi>on,  mission  statements,   brand  key  etc.

Current  developments  e.g.  new   adver>sing,  new  products.

Research  that  could  inspire  or  inform.  

Samples  at  the  mee>ng  -­‐    brand  and   compe>>ve…a  tas>ng  or  trialling   session!

You’ve  chosen  an  agency.

You’ve  prepared  a  clear  briefing  document….

….but  you’re  a  bit  nervous  that  the  mee>ng  /  briefing  could  be  a   bit  flat  and  uninspiring!

 -­‐  bring  inspira>on  and  insight  to  the  briefing.

-­‐  immerse  the  team.

Whilst  bread  sales  are  sound,  jam   sales  are  really  s>cky!

Jam  needs  to  shout  from  the   spreads  aisle  -­‐  it’s  dark  and  dead!

Required… an  agency  able  to  bring  freshness   and  light  to  our  problem.

Awareness  and  trial  of  soya   as  a  meat  subs>tute  is   healthy  at  circa  45%,  but   conversion  to  sales  at  the   checkout  is  poor.

Packaging  does  not  help.

Required…

An  agency  to  probe  deeply   into  what’s  not  working,  why   and  make  Quorn  great!

Workshops  that  work…

MulI-­‐market  innovaIon   demands  that  all par.cipa.ng  markets   feel  involved  and  true ownership.

Why  would  you  guess  what  a  markets dynamics  are  when  the  experIse  exists inside?

We  believe  that  Innova.on  Workshops, although  tried,  tested  and  o^en  rejected,  are a  very   efficient  and  dynamic  means  of aligning  teams,  understanding  common  goals and  acceleraIng  towards  soluIons.

Judging  Crea>ve  Work

Most  agencies  get  so  engrossed  in  ideas   and  fall  in  love  with  them.

They  oeen  need  to  be  directed

 towards  next  steps.

Few  agencies  are  crea>ve  AND   commercially  minded.

This  is  where  you  play  a  cri>cal  role:

-­‐  keeping  an  open  mind  on  the

   crea>ve  spread  of  ideas.

-­‐  applying  criteria  for  selec>on  and

   preference.

-­‐  giving  due  thought  to  all  work

   presented.

-­‐  ensuring  that  guidance  on  further

   builds  is  good  advice.

Thursday, 13 June 2013

Judging  Crea>ve  Work  -­‐  easy  wins

Request  that  crea>ve  work  is  presented  with   a  structure: ra>onale,  benefits,  issues,  future  builds.

Don’t  jump  in  with  feedback.

Use  your  three  tools!

Comment  on  every  idea  star>ng  with  the   best  first.

(Try  green,  amber,  red  for  >ering).

Other  op>ons:

Get  the  agency  to  judge  their  own  work  first!

Dare  to  Dream

Create a culture with

bigger what ifs….?

‘What if we played to the classicism of our brand marque and embossed rather than printed our Coke cans?

Thousands of tonnes of ink no longer required.

Thousands of tonnes of chemicals no longer required to strip the ink off before recycling.

OK that’s too far - what’s the middle ground?’

This is the level of thinking that should be going on inside your business.

R&D and Marketing

…hot air balloon gag

Combining the potent forces of R&D and

Marketing has never been so important for driving ‘sustainability’ successfully in the future.

A better shared understanding of all aspects of the sustainability value chain is vital for integrated sustainability initiatives…

How can we source sustainably?

How can we produce more sustainably?

How can we distribute more sustainably?

How can we educate our consumers to live more sustainably?

Sweet and Innocent…

The inevitable celebrity temptation to create a clothes brand or fragrance persists.

(You’re probably too young to remember Bjorn Borg’s ‘must have’ underwear range).

Maria Sharapova has shown great originality here with her

Sugarpova range of sweets!

Great names - I also applaud the small-print - A portion of every purchase is given to the Maria Sharapova Foundation for helping children across the world achieve their dreams.

Old  and  dusty…

…is how I’ve often viewed Nutella spread in that

70’s typeface and bulky cumbersome jar.

I’ve always craved a go at re-designing it!

That’s probably why Ferrero are so good at what they do.

They don’t tinker - they are the masters of protecting and nurturing their brands to ensure they pass successfully from one decade to the next.

QED – keep the core sacred and carefully add new products – here’s the freshness that Nutella needs.

A clever piece of brand naming and a great promoter of the core proposition of Nutella.
