PHASE ONE

Strategy & Approach

DEVELOPING THE STRATEGY

Over a one-day facilitated session, we surfaced the challenges, Adult Humour, as a company faced. In the process, they prioritised the needs and goals of the business and its customers.

DEFINING THE BRAND

Through a series of exercises in the strategy session, we were able to extract and refine the key pillars of the brand. This defined the brand’s personality: how it should look, sound, and act. Defining who they are as a brand and who they want their customers to be. This became the foundation for the branding and marketing plans for 2021 and onwards.

UNDERSTANDING THE USERS AND POSITIONING

Adult Humour, sits within a crowed marked on silly gags and bad jokes, they wanted to stand out from the clutter. So it's important to define and narrow down there end target users to better help design and brand and product around them. We created unique user profiles to represent the range of attendees. This painted a clear picture of their demographics, psychographics, needs and wants.

The reasoning behind this, is it helps us create a brand that is designed around the customer and there needs.
