Make a Statement, Solve a Problem
Strategy for branding, marketing, and PR is a long-term investment, helping you stay consistent and relevant and keeping your programs firing on all cylinders.
Strategy means knowing your brand identity and message. Who you’re communicating with, when, where, how, and most importantly, why. When you invest in strategy, it saves the time and expense of having to start from scratch with every new piece of communication. Strategy also brings clarity and focus to your brand and messaging.
At TerraCurrent, we approach strategy through onboarding discovery meetings and initial research. We use the output to inform an analysis of the marketplace, key customer groups, or personas, and the competitive landscape. Insights also help identify brand positioning, competitive strengths, value propositions, and a framework for communications and visual identity that becomes your brand style guide. In turn, these assets inform the key elements of your website, sales collateral, and other forms of strategic communication.
