StrategyBuilt by one team

Most brands don't have a design problem. They have a positioning problem — they sound like everyone else, so buyers compare on price. We fix that first. We dig into your market, find the angle only you can own, and turn it into a name, a story, and a message stack your whole team can use.

What's included

What you get

Market and competitor audit — where everyone sounds the same, and the gap you can own

Positioning statement: who you're for, the problem you solve, and why you over the alternatives

Messaging hierarchy — headline, value props, proof points, and objection-handling, ready for the site

Naming or renaming for the company, product, or service line, with domain and trademark sense-checks

Brand voice guidelines: tone, vocabulary, and do-not-say list your writers can follow

A one-page strategy brief that briefs designers, writers, and ads from the same source of truth

How we work

Our approach

No mystery, no busywork — a clear sequence that gets you a result you can measure.

01

Diagnose before we prescribe

We start with interviews — you, your team, a few customers — plus a hard look at competitors and the category. The goal is to surface what you actually do better, in words a buyer would recognize. No workshop theatre. Just sharp questions and a clear read on where you stand.

02

Find the angle only you can own

Strong positioning is a trade-off: you commit to a specific buyer and a specific promise. We map the options, pressure-test each one against demand and credibility, and recommend the angle with the most room to grow. You'll see the reasoning, not just the conclusion.

03

Make it usable, not just clever

A positioning deck that sits in a drive is worthless. We hand you a message stack and voice guide your designers, copywriters, and ad team can pick up and run with — so the brand stays consistent whether it's a homepage hero or a cold email.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How long does a positioning and naming project take?
Positioning typically runs three to five weeks: a week of research and interviews, a week to develop and test options, then refinement and the final brief. Add a week or two if naming is involved, since we sense-check domains and trademarks. Tight deadline? Tell us — we can compress the timeline by narrowing scope, not by cutting the research.
How do you price this work?
We quote a fixed project fee based on scope — how many stakeholders we interview, whether naming is included, and how deep the competitor audit goes. You get the number before we start, with no hourly surprises. Positioning-only engagements sit at the lower end; full naming plus voice guidelines sit higher. We'll scope it on a call and send a written proposal.
What do we need to provide?
Access to two or three people who know the business well, time for a few customer conversations (we can run those for you), and any existing research, sales decks, or analytics you have. That's it. You don't need a finished brief or a clear answer — figuring out the answer is our job. The rough material is more useful than a polished one.
How do you measure whether the positioning worked?
We set the markers up front: clearer sales conversations, shorter deals, higher-quality leads, and copy that converts better than the version it replaced. Positioning is upstream, so some signals show within weeks — the sales team using the language, fewer 'so what do you actually do?' questions — while conversion and lead-quality gains compound over the following quarter as the message reaches the market.
