Purpose and Positioning

The Challenge

Turn a studio people couldn't categorize into one they could buy.

The Details

Imaginology had a why and a how but no clear what.

Buyers read it as facilitation or as competition for their agency of record, and work kept getting pushed to the next calendar year. We repositioned it as an R&D studio building worlds of meaning. As a creative studio, not a facilitation company we narrowed our focus to people who could actually decide.

What I did

  • Brand positioning

  • Audience strategy

  • Qualitative research & synthesis

  • Brand framework development

  • Executive facilitation

The Decisions

  • Creative studio, not facilitation

  • Sell only to people who can decide

  • Stop chasing work that dies in someone else's budget cycle
