1. WHAT IS BRANDS?
What Brands Are They?

1. WHAT IS BRAND?
Brand is the "name, term, design, symbol, and/or any other feature,
employed to create an image that identifies one seller's product distinct from
those of other sellers. Wikipedia

Over time, this image becomes associated with a level of credibility,
quality,
and
satisfaction

the
consumer's
mind.

2. WHY BRAND?
Too many choices
Too many information
Too little time

We dont buy things because we feel that one product performs better than another,
we choose brands because we like their language and their understanding of what we want.

AND RESONANCE
Companies have limited assets and capabilities
Profit potential differs by consumer segment

Each consumer segment has a unique set of needs and requires a different
value proposition

Consumer segmentation helps us over-invest in high value consumers whose


needs align with our capabilities

We dont buy things because we feel that one product performs better than another,
we choose brands because we like their language and their understanding of what we
want. - John Hegarty, Chairman BBH

Scientific evidence now fully endorses EMOTION as the underlying driver of


all human behavior

ALL STAGES OF RESEARCH MUST ADDRESS NOT


JUST THE RATIONAL SIDE OF CONSUMERS AND
BRANDS, BUT ALSO THE EMOTIVE
NeedScope approaches emotion in a unique way using unique tools

Consumer-Brand
Relationship Model

Psychological
Framework

Projective
approach

A model that recognises many


layers of consumer needs and
brand image, with emotion at
the heart

A psychological model based


on archetypes to provide a
framework for understanding
the emotion in needs and
brand image

Projective photosets/collages
applied qualitatively and
quantitatively to access the
emotive layer

CONSUMER-BRAND RELATIONSHIP MODEL UNCOVERS THE


DIFFERENT SOCIOLOGICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL LAYERS
This provides a disciplined way of looking at consumer needs and brands
Forms the basis of all NeedScope research i.e. always analyse needs and brands at 3 layers

FRAMEWORK
A psychological model based on archetypes to provide a framework for understanding
the emotion in needs and brand image
WHAT DOES NEEDSCOPE ANSWER?
The consumers motivations and needs which explain brand choice
A segmentation which links consumers needs to brands - and how to best satisfy
their needs
How well your brands meet consumer needs
The strengths and vulnerabilities of your brands - and how to best attack the
competition
The needs of your brand(s) users - how to defend
The strength and growth opportunities for your brand(s) - how to build

of as words for additional exploration.

CAT SOURCE OF GROWTH:


70% FROM MARKET DEVELOPMENT

Market Development is about growing the size of a category through changing


fundamental consumer behaviors: bringing in more users, driving more usage, and
trading up through more benefits.

MARKET DEVELOPMENT REQUIRES


FUNDAMENTAL CHANGES IN PEOPLES BEHAVIOR
1. More Users

In household cleaning, new


users were recruited by
giving better performing
products.

2. More Usage

3. More Benefits
(trade up)

Hellmanns challenged the belief


that mayonnaise is high in calories
& inspired cooks to use it in their
favourite dishes.

Lipton has traded people from


loose tea to tea bags to pyramids
for a better & richer tasting
experience.

Through widely acclaimed


educational campaign, Signal
encouraged families to brush day
& night to prevent tooth decay.

Dove increased category value


through products that care for the
skin while providing maximum
sweat protection.

Market development is driven not just by innovation


but also by communications and promotions too

INTRODUCTION
Brand positioning:
Marketing can be seen as a process, but brands are the reason we do it, and brands are what people
buy and buy into. When you think about brands you elevate the vision of marketing to a higher level.
Marc Mathieu Unilever Global SVP Marketing

BUILD BRAND LOVE THROUGH PURPOSEFUL


POSITIONING

Brand Positioning Model, captures what we want


the brand to be, i.e. brands positioning and its
Purpose an idea, bigger than benefits, that the brand
believes in, and that the people were serving believe in
too.
The Brand Positioning model also captures the brand
ambition in delivering the Sustainable Living Plan.
This discipline ensures we nurture and build authentic
brands, that truly serve people, based on a point of
view that matters and a product that people want.

AT THE HEART IS THE BRAND LOVE TRIANGLE

Brand positioning is a future looking


strategic act, to shape our future.
However, it also builds on and takes
account of our brand history, it
leverages a deep understanding of
the people we want to serve and it
includes an honest interrogation of our
product offering.

THE PEOPLE WE SERVE


Describes the people who love the brand. What are their common defining characteristics?
How would we describe them as an affinity group?
Eg. Magnum

SPONTANEOUS
PLEASURE SEEKERS

Purpose
(Brand
pov)
The
people
we
serve
Product
truth

Human
truth

KILLER QUESTION
Does it define the people that will love the brand but also implicitly those that will hate it?

HUMAN TRUTH
A deep routed tension or desire, felt by the people the brand serves.
You can tangibly feel it in society today. Sets up the opportunity for the brand to respond.
Eg. Dove

The
pressure
to be beautiful
feeds our tendency
to focus on the
negative, making
beauty an
unnecessary source of
anxiety.
KILLER QUESTION
Is the tension something you can feel, touch in society? Is it culturally relevant for the time we are living in? But at the
same time is it something that's not an ephemeral fashion that will last only a summer?

BRAND PURPOSE
The reason why the brand exists. What the brand would write on its T-shirt. Defines the higherlevel contribution the brand brings to the life of the people it serves.
E.g. Dulux paint

ADD COLOR TO
OUR PEOPLE'S
LIVES

Purpose
(Brand
pov)
The
people
we
serve

Product
truth

Human
truth

KILLER QUESTION
Does it work as a T-Shirt message? Could someone disagree with it? How clear is it in matching a great
product to buy and a powerful idea to buy into?

PRODUCT TRUTH
The essential, defining characteristic of our products and services - what marks them out as
different. Enables the brand to deliver its purpose.
Eg. Coke

UPLIFTING AND
REFRESHING

Purpose
(Brand
pov)
The
people

The Brand Love Key (BLK) determines both the promise we make and the product we must deliver.
We track specific key attributes we want to stand for through the Brand health check and Brand Equity Score.

WHAT DOES BRAND EQUITY MEAN TO YOU?


In your groups discuss how you would define Brand
Equity
Be prepared to share your definition

5 mins

HOW HAVE OTHERS DEFINED BRAND EQUITY?


A set of assets linked to a brand's name and
symbol that adds to the value provided by a
product or service to a firm and/or that firm's
customers

The discounted future value of the incremental


sales that a brand generates above a generic brand
in the category
Various

David Aaker

The extra impact of knowing


that the product is this brand
rather than a generic
The brand's power derived from the goodwill
and name recognition it has earned over time,
and which translates into higher sales volume
and higher profit margins against competing
brands
Business Dictionary

Kevin Keller

The associations in the minds of the


consumer that permit the brand to earn a
greater volume or margin
Srivastava and Shocker

WHY DOES BRAND EQUITY MATTER?


Competitive Advantage
Our Brand Equities define our differences to consumers from competitors and are the
foundation for Share growth
Growth Potential
Brands that are healthy in the consumers eyes are more likely to grow volume, profits and sales
simultaneously
Leverage with Customers
Retailers cant replicate Proposition as easily as other Ps and must be more collaborative on
strong brands than others
Greater Pricing Power
Brands with stronger Brand Equity have the ability to lead Pricing successfully (i.e. lower price
elasticities)

BRAND EQUITY SCORE


WHAT IS THE BRAND EQUITY SCORE?
The Brand Equity Score is a single number measure of the strength of the brands proposition with a
drill-down to performance on individual attributes.
It measures how effectively the brand meets consumer needs in a particular category.
This is not another isolated tool. It helps you to do what you already do and do it better.
WHY BRAND EQUITY SCORE?
Brand Pyramid Strength of proposition in the context of consumers
relationships with brands in general. Look at Consumers Closeness to the
brand.
YET, when the data changes it can be hard to find out exactly why and
what we should do about it.

CREATING BRAND MARKETING PLAN


From category & brand strategy, creating brand plans using deep holistic
understanding gained through two complementary approaches

ANNUAL BRAND & CATEGORY AUDIT


which structures an analysis of key data, and digs to get deeper understanding. the audit
data tells the story of:

WHO is shopping in the category


WHICH BRANDS they are choosing
HOW OFTEN and HOW MUCH they are Buying
WHY they are doing this.
Importantly, this helps us get to the
ROOT ISSUES AND OPPORTUNITIES for our
brands across the 6Ps

THE BRAND AUDIT USES THE 6 PS BRAND GROWTH


MODEL AS A FRAMEWORK TO ORGANISE LEARNING

THE BRAND AUDIT USES THE 6 PS BRAND GROWTH


MODEL AS A FRAMEWORK TO ORGANISE LEARNING

What are the headline characteristics of my market and


how does my category or brand perform within it?

Do I understand how my brand user behaviour is


driving my category or brand performance?

How do the 6Ps growth drivers affect my consumer


behavior?

THE AUDIT IDENTIFIES A BRANDS LOCAL ROOT


ISSUES/ OPPORTUNITIES
Root Issue- a highly specific and insightful description of the surface issue or opportunity. It
tells us a who/ what/ why story that shapes the Job To be done:

TO CHOOSE WHICH INSIGHTS ARE BEST,


WE ASK SIX QUESTIONS

EXERCISE: STEP 3 WRITE UP THE WINNING INSIGHT


Finally we write up the winning insight, its headline with any relevant
support.

We may even find a picture that sums up the core of the insight.
This will help us choose the sharpest expression to build into briefs.

GREAT INSIGHTS IS SIMPLE, TRUE & SO CLEAR


FINDINGS/UNDERSTANDINGS THAT YOU DO NOT
NEED TO KEEP QUESTIONING WHY?

Remember to keep ask probing questions when you connect


with consumers and think about their behavior and
motivation and needs
Why?
So what?
Which means that?
Why is that important?
So whats the problem?
How does that make them feel?
For example?

EXAMPLE: KEEP ASKING WHY, WHY, WHY BECAUSE,

NOW LOOK BACK OUR JOURNEY


Creating a great idea to please our consumers is the essential start of successful mix development. An idea must
meet a consumer need or want or fancy. It may be triggered by an invention looking for a home, or an insight
looking for a solution.

PRINCIPLES OF GREAT IDEA


FIND THE NEW
Great ideas either find a new angle for the brand or product proposition, offer
enhanced benefits or present a new or different way to meet a consumer need

PRINCIPLES OF GREAT IDEA


FIND THE SWEET SPOT WHERE OUR BRANDS CAN WIN
Great Ideas are those that hit the sweet spot where our brand and product can take full
advantage of deep insightful people understanding and where we can win.

HOW TO PRESENT AN IDEA?


One to two sentences so consumers can understand and visualize a real, complete
product
Core product facts and simple benefit statements
No price
Branded
Ask: do I understand what this product is
and does when reading this idea? Can I
visualize a complete, real product based
on this information?

A natural laundry detergent from Persil


that has the cleaning results you expect,
but is also better for the environment

A floor cleaner from Cif with the next


generation of ionic cleaning technology
that can pick up dirt and dust like a
magnet in one easy step

3 STEPS TO PRODUCE PREAT IDEAS

CREATE

CHOOSE

1. Go crazy and create - Generate many potential ideas,


using input stimulus
2. Get serious and choose Spot the big themes &
select those with greatest potential
3. Get writing and capture - Write up the best ideas as
simple compelling propositions with desirable benefits

CAPTURE

STEP 1- CREATE

MIND MAPPING

STEP 1- CREATE MIND MAPPING

This technique can be used either to


develop ideas for core propositions,
using eg. an insight as a springboard..
..Or it can be used to identify more
powerful alternative ways of expressing
the language of either insights, benefits or
reasons to believe, claims, names etc

You can either do this in groups or individually

STEP 1- CREATE MIND MAPPING

Each group (or individual) writes up an insight in


the centre of a large piece of paper.
The group scribe draws spokes or branches off the
centre and fills these with potential alternative
angles/expressions of the insight, benefit or reason
to believe. Taking each spoke individually, brainstorm
each, exhausting their potential for ideas.

TECHNIQUE
FRESH EYES

An exercise to help explore your stimulus


from a different perspective, looking at it
through the eyes of a wide variety of
different people and scenarios

TECHNIQUE
FRESH EYES RE-EXPRESSION CHALLENGE
1. Select a wide range of re-expression challenges and stimulus from the list of ideas, eg.
on the following slide (or invent your own!) Put the selected ideas onto separate cards/post
its.
2. Take turn select a card, as well as a variety of product, a different external brand and some
consumer stimulus (eg magazines,.)
3. Explore, looking at the product, brand and consumer stimulus with the fresh eyes
from the point of view on the card. What new light does this shed on our challenge?
4. Share different perspectives and responses, and capture any original suggestions and
propositions we might learn from.

FRESH EYES RE-EXPRESSION STIMULUS


How would a teenager / pensioner/ gardener approach it?
Draw the challenge using your left hand, this promotes the use of the
creative right side of your brain!
How would NIKE / APPLE / GOOGLE connect the stimulus?
How would NOKIA / COCA COLA link the stimulus?
How would STAR WARS DR.SPOCK approach or express the challenge?
(apart from logically)
Write a verse from a RAP TUNE to describe the challenge

FRESH EYES RE-EXPRESSION STIMULUS


If you won the lottery how would you approach the issue?
Express the proposition as a wine bottle label (eg. classic and fruity with a
rich berry overtone)
How would LOREAL express the challenge?
Draw a storyboard which describes the connections

How would WILLIAM SHAKESPARE connect the stimulus?


How would MADONNA connect the stimulus?

How would N.A.S.A approach it?

FRESH EYES RE-EXPRESSION STIMULUS


Sum up the proposition in just ONE WORD
Use THREE RHYMING words to describe the connection

How would GOD say it? Write out an eleventh commandment to


describe the challenge.
How would you do it through the eyes for a child?

Express it through the eyes of a famous personality


Express it through another parallel world

How would an alien approach it?

FRESH EYES RE-EXPRESSION STIMULUS


How would a waiter approach it?
How would a new MOTHER make connections?
How would you do it through the eyes of a person who
lived 500 years ago?
How would you express it if you were a person from a very
different culture?

STEP 1- CREATE
Based on a good opportunity springboard, we should be able to create many starter ideas,
written out simply each with a title & clear proposition.

STEP 2 - CLUSTER & CHOOSE


Cluster into common theme, with a headline

Ultimate Deep clean


Fabric conditioners that work deep down to
guarantee ultimate comfort and freshness

No Rinsing
Fabric conditioners without the need
to rinse

Rinse Less
Fabric conditioners that reduce
the need to rinse

Rinse & Protection

wringing needed

WORK WITH R&D TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THE PRODUCT OFFERS

STEP 2- CLUSTER & CHOOSE


Based on agreed screening criteria

NEW & DIFFERENT

INSIGHT LOCK

DESIRABLESWEET SPOT

STEP 3 - CAPTURE
For each chosen idea we:
Develop the best expresssion of the idea, saying what it is and what the desirable
benefits are.
With a pithy headline to capture the nub of the idea

SCREEN & TESTA


Be clear how you are going to get from your many
ideas to the few you want to take forward: Expert
Group Selection, Qual research (consumer groups),
Quant research (Idea Screener), a criteria based
elimination or a combination.

Qual: Consumer Groups


To explore the most promising creative
territories. Understand which ones have
potential and should be developed
further. Qual can give you indications of
how to develop your idea.

Quant: Bases Idea Screener


Designed to be used at the very early
stage of the funnel. Idea Screener is
Quantative testing of ideas
communicated in one/two sentences to

The Concept Grid and Concept Crafting


How to craft proposition into a concept using the concept grid and then after
research, finalise concept?
How to define core content and use consumer research to identify the
relative importance of these elements?
How to make the most of visual communication in the concept and make
great translations?

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


The Concept grid
The concept grid is a way of capturing the compelling consumer insight, clear benefit and persuasive
reason to believe that underpin the core proposition.

CORE PROPOSITION

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


The Concept grid
Questions to articulate and craft the insights, benefits and RTB to ensure consumer relevancy and
competitiveness

CORE PROPOSITION

Is it relevant and important


to your target market?

Does it accurately underpin


and drive the core
proposition?

Does it contain interesting


tension or freshness?

Does it answer the consumer


insight directly?

Do they support the


discriminating benefit?

Is it single-minded?

Are they sustainable over the


long term?

Is it competitive in the market


place?

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


The Concept grid
There are usually multiple options for the insight, benefit and reason to believe. These can be
optimised in consumer research.

Comfort One Rinse

I have to rinse my clothes several


times to be sure theres no
harmful residue left.

I have to rinse my clothes several


times which takes a lot of effort.
I have to rinse my clothes several
times which wastes a lot of water.
Rinsing is a real hassle
in laundry

Rinse, soften and perfume your


clothes, without leaving any
irritating residues.

With a new foam dissolver, which
means the foam disappears in
less water.

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


Concept research
Turn the concepts in the form of a simple template to test with consumer.

Besides the insight, benefit and RTB you can test alternative options for elements
such as a pack shot or a demonstration.

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


Supporting visuals:
Limit to only two visuals in 1 concept.
Suggestion to include:

Pack visuals or Line visuals


Brand equity visuals
Mode of action visuals/ demo

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH

Pack Visuals

If test alternative pack visuals make sure any differences


are very evident, as shown here.

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH

Line Visuals

Line visuals are important if the breadth of line is a key to


proposition.
It is not recommended to use both a line shot and a single
pack shot choose one or the other.

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


Brand Equity
Visuals

Note: should not test what the brand stands for during
product concept optimisation.

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH

Mode of
Action Visuals

Visuals explaining a mode of action or demonstrating a


product use can be very effective.

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


Concept watch outs!
DONT Overload the concept with content

Keep it simple.

This concept is too packed!

Use a maximum of 80-100 words.

Too much information means the most important points dont get heard!
DONT Make changes to the minor details, for example, pack copy
Minor pack change alternatives wont be noticed in concept research.
DONT Overload the concept with mood visuals

Multiple visuals can overwhelm a concept and crowd out the key you are trying to optimise.

Keep visual elements to specific pack, brand equity or mode of action. Mood imagery can cause confusion and
make it harder for consumers to understand the differences between the concepts.
DONT Try to write a press advert

No evidence of ad copy generating better consumer research results.

Harder to identify what motivates to consumers in the concept.

Too executional

STEP 3: CONCEPT CRAFTING AND RESEARCH


Concept research output

- Help understand what really matters to consumers


what to protect, what can sacrifice
finalize the brief main point.
- Help briefing for brilliant products and communication.

Idea

The BCI is creative execution envelope for all


consumer-facing communications on a brand- its
the big idea that translates the Brand Love Key
into a communications theme. It exists over time,
geographies and objectives.

THE BCI INFORMS ALL BRAND CAMPAIGNS,


CONVERSATION IDEAS AND EXECUTIONS

Brand Communication Idea


Summarising the brand idea in one sentence
bringing the brand proposition to life.

Campaign / Conversation Idea


The single minded creative idea that is played
out in all executions over time. It is objective
(JTBD) led.
Executions
The communication activity which the target
audience experiences. All reinforcing the same
message, but in ways characteristic of the
respective channels used.

EXAMPLE

THE BCI INFORMS ALL THE CAMPAIGN PLATFORMS THAT THE


BRAND EXECUTES TO NURTURE AND BUILD CONSISTENT
EQUITY OVER TIME

INTEGRATED BRAND COMMUNICATION (IBC)


IBC is our communication development process, impacting all the touch-points brands need to address, beyond
TV, on the internet, including bringing the brand alive in the store.
SINGLE COMPELLING IDEA
RELEVANT TOUCH POINTS
APPROPRIATE CHANNELS, phased, to meet clear OBJECTIVES
TALKABILITY for always on communication- 365 days a year and 24/7
TRULY ENGAGES people in the brand
The world has changed.
We need to be agile like never before.

INTEGRATED BRAND COMMUNICATION (IBC)


The rapid rise of digital media, mobile, social and e-commerce impacts how
people interact with each other and with brands across the world.
HARNESSING THE POWER OF DIGITAL
2+ bn internet users
1.2 bn users of social media
6 bn own a mobile phone
Explosive growth of on-line video content
E commerce booming

Integrated brand communication is a critical way of winning with brands.


The correlation between good communication and sales is well proven.
Sustained brand equity growth
Sustained core brand sales growth
Sustained market share growth

For a brands communication to resonate with people, it must be rooted in deep insight
and understanding.

IBC PROCESS

WHAT IS BRIEFING?
An ad for an ad
Great communication starts from purposeful briefing
Briefs only exist to inspire creative ideas that can engage people in brand conversations.
EXAMPLE
Doves Titanium Grand Prix winner Real Beauty Sketches answered a clear and simple brief:
Research had shown that just 4% of women think theyre beautiful. Lets show women
they are more beautiful than they think.
This campaign has reached over 200 million people on-line.

THE ISSUE WITH THE QUALITY OF IBC BRIEFS


Low quality briefs result in inefficient use of time and money and lower quality of work.
Percentage of respondents agreeing with statement
IBC Briefs are single minded and insightful

CONCEPT & CREATIVE BRIEF


THE ROLE OF THE CONCEPT
The concept is one of many assets that is available to an IBC team when they create the brief.
The first step in moving from concept to IBC brief is to step back from the concept and start
thinking about the role of communication and the IBC brief.

THE PURPOSE OF THE CREATIVE BRIEF


is to direct and inspire your agency partners.
is not to just a template to fill in the boxes.
it must not be so vague that everyone can agree to it.
A great communication brief:
Simple and compelling story
Clear role for the communication with a powerful insight, drawn from a human truth.
Provides a clear, creative challenge for the agency.

THREE KEY SUCCESS FACTORS

Co-creating the IBC brief with your agencies (creative and channel agencies).

Being clear on the role that communication plays in delivering the JtbD.

Keeping it single-minded.

IBC BRIEF CREATION IS ABOUT


Starting off by focusing on the Desired Consumer Response to the communication not the
message in itself.

Sacrifice: selecting the single point that is most likely to achieve the Desired Consumer
Response. If there are multiple crucial messages, you need multiple briefs.

Judgement: research, insights and experience will guide you, but it is the IBC leaders
judgement that defines the IBC brief and especially the choice of Main Point.

Conveying a sense of brand through language, approach and the role


communication plays.

IBC BRIEF CREATION IS NOT ABOUT


Repeating the validated concept in a different format
(IBC brief format).
You have then misunderstood the purpose and role of an IBC brief.

Including all aspects of a proposition or mix that consumers have liked.


Your IBC brief will not be single-minded.
(However, knowing what consumers have liked and not liked and why,
is important background and contextual information for the agency.)

Fine-tuning the details of what goes into the communication and how this is expressed.
You are then doing the agencys work.

THE MAIN POINT


What is the single most important
point to communicate?
The choice of Main Point is a key moment of sacrifice.
It is a single point and one that the team must feel comfortable as being the one most likely to
generate the Desired Consumer Response amongst the target audience.
The key criteria for choosing the Main Point is therefore
that it has the power to drive the Desired Consumer Response
and that it is consistent with the BrandKey Vision and BCI
Note: It does not have to be the consumer benefit in the concept.

EXAMPLES OF THE MAIN POINT

Dove pro.age focused on the benefit


With Dove pro.age Beauty Serum, you can confidently reveal your skin.
Persil non-bio focused on the insight
Many pregnant Mums believe they have to wash their babys clothes before the birth, but they
dont know why.
Comfort focused on the RTB
The new range of exhilarating fragrances from Comfort.

FOCUS ON DESIRED CONSUMER RESPONSE TO


DRIVE GOOD IBC BRIEFS

Create a task map to articulate the


consumer understanding and what this
meant in terms of change in perception
and behaviour.

EXAMPLE 1: MAGNUM
The case
Magnum were launching their hero stick of the new
ice cream season.

JTBD:
Get young, urban,' pleasure entitled adults
To rush to the ice cream cabinets to try their first Magnum
Gold?! at the start of the ice cream season.
By offering them an incredibly exciting new stick.

EXAMPLE 1: MAGNUM

The concept
Following concept exploration,
the winning idea was captured in
the final concept.

EXAMPLE 1: MAGNUM
By going back to the JtbD, Magnum were able to clearly articulate the Desired Consumer Response, and
then review consumer understanding to define an inspiring insight that led to a single-minded and powerful
Main Point.

Desired Consumer Response


Oh wow! Only Magnum can do this. I am really pleased. What could there be after this?? They are really
raising my expectations. Im glad they dare.

Main Point
Magnum Gold?! is as desirable as gold.

Insight
The pleasure entitled Magnum target audience are driven by their desires for pleasure and no
price is too big when it comes to fulfilling their desires.

EXAMPLE 2: DOVE PRO.AGE


The case
Dove pro.age needed to re-ignite its business following signs of
decline in penetration levels. The team knew that success
depended on their communication reinforcing the emotional
connection with its women 50+ target whilst communicating the
superior performance of its products.
JTBD:
Get women in their fifties who are heavy users of Hand & Body
To try Dove pro.age Hand & Body
By delivering the best visible care for mature skin.

EXAMPLE 2: DOVE PRO.AGE

The concept
Following concept exploration,
the winning idea was captured
in the final concept.

EXAMPLE 2: DOVE PRO.AGE


By going back to the JtbD, Dove pro.age were able to clearly articulate the Desired Consumer Response,
and then review consumer understanding to define an inspiring insight that led to a single-minded and
powerful Main Point.

Desired Consumer Response


I believe that Dove really understands who I am and my needs and I am hopeful that this new formulation
can really make a visual difference to my skin.

Main Point
With Dove pro.age beauty serum, you can confidently reveal your skin.

Insight
I feel like I have reached a point in my life where I am more confident in who I am as a woman.
Lately I have noticed that my skin has started to change, but I dont want to trade my v-neck
sweater in for a turtleneck.

NOTE

IBC BRIEF CHECKLIST


Revisit your JtbD to remind yourself of what the task at hand is.
Create a Task Map to focus your thinking on the Desired Consumer Response and implied
behaviour change as this is the focus of the IBC brief.

Interrogate the consumer understanding on your brand (including findings from concept
research) to define the insight that can be leveraged through the Main Point.
Use your judgement to select the single point that is most likely to trigger the Desired
Consumers Response amongst your consumer.

SOME IBC BRIEF WATCH-OUTS!


The product benefit is selected as the Main Point although it is not the key driver of behaviour change.
In the example below, the Comfort team changed the Main Point in their IBC Brief when
they recognised that what was actually driving interest and trial in the new range was
the products (look and smell) themselves! The benefit was implicit amongst the target
audience.

Original

Example

What is the single most important point to communicate?


The fragrance hit you get from the new Comfort Exhilarations range will revitalise and lift
everyones mood!
Revised
What is the single most important point to communicate?
New exhilarating fragrances from Comfort!

SOME IBC BRIEF WATCH-OUTS!


The Main Point is not single-minded.
Watch out for brackets and words like whilst. The equity of the brand or, for example,
visual elements of your mix or other cues should be strong enough to carry these
additional messages without intruding on the single core message.

Example
What is the single most important point to
communicate?

What is the single most important point to


communicate

Only Surf liquid delivers 3 times the


freshness (with reassurance on clean) vs.
powders.

Comfort Naturals is the only range of fabric


conditioners which gives you beautiful,
natural fragrances whilst still being kind on
your skin.

SOME IBC BRIEF WATCH-OUTS!


The Main Point is already a Campaign Idea.

When teams have strong insights and ideas are in abundance, there is a tendency to
leap to Campaign Ideas and strap lines that are unclear.

Example

What is the single most important point to communicate?


Open Up & Show Whats Inside.

SOME IBC BRIEF WATCH-OUTS!


The Main Point doesnt deliver on the opportunity as presented in the Insight.
In the example below, the Main Point doesnt respond to the insight about why consumers
choose to hand wash clothes.
Example
What consumer insight drives this brief?
No matter what, my washing machine cannot clean as well as my hands do because it
cant give the personal attention that I give to the extra dirty clothes.
What is most likely to achieve this change?

With New Rin Advanced Matic powder, I have the visible proof of hand wash like
whiteness even in my machine.

SOME IBC BRIEF WATCH-OUTS!


The Main Point is re-iterated as the Desired Consumer Response
Consumers simply playing back the Main Point is unlikely to be the sign of a real shift in
perception and behavior.
What is it that you would really like them to feel, think, believe and do? This is the
guidance you need to provide in the section on Desired Consumer Response.

Example
What is the single most important point to communicate?
New OMO gives you the great stain removal you love from Omo + so many more benefits.
What would we like them to think and do in response to the communication?
Think: New Omo gives the cleaning I love from Omo + so many more benefits that I was
despairing to ever get from a detergent.

OTHER COMMON PROBLEMS OF BRIEFING

- TOO LONG OR TOO SHORT


- PHYSILOGIC
- WIIFM (WHAT IS IT FOR ME?)

- TOO PRESCRIPTIVE

HOW TO BRIEF WELL?


CO-CREATE BRIEFS WITH THEIR CREATIVE AND MEDIA AGENCIES IN AN
INSPIRING ONE DAY SESSION IN AN INSPIRING PLACE

where the entire team can experience your brand and products and
have good, constructive conversations in a relaxing environment
kick off your briefing day with a surprising highlight maybe from an
external speaker or nice video clip or relevant game?

LISTEN TO ADVICES FROM EXPERTS


JEFF DODDS, FORMER CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER, VIRGIN MEDIA
1. Let the agency as close to the biz update/problem as possible.
Briefing is much better with insight
2. Never let client write the brief
Client & Agency write the brief together
If not, challenge the brief from the client as much as your ability
3. Pay attention to the length of the brief. Write the brief around the problem

BEN MALBON, DIRECTOR OF STRATEGY, GOOGLE CREATIVE LAB NY


Google dont really have briefing process. We have little idea of what we actually need
as we are moving with speed & even cant see how we are gonna talk about
something (i.e at brief)

Yet , we need agency to lean into our products than we do


Dont do what we ask, do what we dont ask
Mad interest in what we make & why

LISTEN TO ADVICES FROM EXPERTS


PATRICIA MCDONALD, EXECUTIVE PLANNING DIRECTOR, ISOBAR UK
1. A business problem is a behavioral
change in disguise

What do we need people to do?

2. Think about network insight, not only


consumer insight

Why would they do it? What are their


network motivations?

3. From the single thing we want to say


to the single thing we are going to
make or do?

What we are going to make/do to


enable them to do it?

JASON GONSALVES, CHIEF STRATEGY OFFICER, BBH LONDON


Media channels
Media is too important to be left to media agencies
Media = culture
All brand are media brands
Everything is media

LISTEN TO ADVICES FROM EXPERTS

Use the media to discover


and bring to life, dominant
and emerging cultural
themes

BRIEF

Identify when, where


and how you should
engage your
audience

Create the media that


best express the big
idea

IDEA

Design how you want ppl to


flow from one experience
to another to unlock the
value

EXECUTION

JUDGING CREATIVE IDEAS AND EXECUTIONS


REQUIRES A COMBINATION OF GUT INSTINCT AND
STRUCTURED EVALUATION
It is essential to understand, explore and nurture ideas, before we move into judgement. This requires
both sound intuition and the use of developmental research. Ask questions to understand the Idea:

USE THE ABCDE EVALUATION TOOL TO LOOK AT HOW IDEAS


AND EXECUTIONS DELIVER AGAINST SPECIFIC KEY CRITERIA
We use ABCDE to discuss and build upon a proposal it is meant to be used as a thinking prompt, not a
scoring device.

WE MUST ASK OURSELVES:


WHY SHOULD THEY CARE? WHY SHOULD THEY SHARE?
SOCIAL BY DESIGN
Decide not only what we tell people about our brands, but what wed like them to tell each other.
More people have smart phones and have a dual screen habit, so we can engage them in so
much richer ways than just watching TV.
Think of brand messages from the perspective of:
Why would they care?
Why would they share?

All Insight is Universal Truth


But only deep, fresh, thought-provoking and true observation
of Universal Truth called Insight

Insight is about deeper thought of Universal Truth


The best way to get deeper thought is asking Why

In short, the planner plays an important role in


creating a SENSITIVE AND DEEPER
UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN BEHAVIOUR
what we call INSIGHT

HENRIK HABBERSTAD
The Anatomy of Account Planning - The creativity
behind the creativity

At the heart of an effective creative philosophy is


the belief that nothing is so powerful as an insight
into human nature, WHAT COMPULSIONS DRIVE A
MAN, WHAT INSTINCTS DOMINATE HIS ACTIONS,
even though his language so often camouflages
WHAT REALLY MOTIVATES HIM. For if you know
these things about a man you can touch him at the
core of his being

WHAT IS CREATIVE BRIEF?


The single most important contribution the account/planning team can make to influencing the power
and creativity of advertising - Gary Duckworth

The most important piece of paper in the agency:


- The baton in the advertising development relay
- The focus for on-going debate

Months of work on one page

Into it, we must distil our learning about a brand, its market, consumer behaviour and advertising.
From it must spring a fresh and original idea - Damian OMalley

WHY DO WE NEED CREATIVE BRIEF?


A creative brief should be BRIEF, but it does not have to be CREATIVE. However, a creative briefing should INSPIRE
- Charlie Robertson

3 critical differences between clients brief and a creative brief:


1. FOCUS
Clients brief addresses only clients concerns (ie: business, or marketing)
Creative brief focuses at area that YOUR EXPERTISE COULD OFFER
Example:
Business: increase bottom line profit 10%
Marketing: switch 2% of competitors users
Communication: boost TOM brand awareness among competitors users up to %
Digital:

Packaging:
Activation:
Event:

Business issues
Marketing issues
Communication
issues
Communication
components

2. DIRECTION
Set a path on how to get there: your strategy.
There are potentially many strategies to get where you want to be, its your task to define the best fit that can help
achieving targets. ITS NOT THE CREATIVE TEAMS TASK.
3. INSPIRATION
Clients brief is merely informative. Creative brief must make your creative team excited.

REMEMBER
5 things that we should do
1.

Invite
Inform

Inspire
Involve

Creative brief is not

Why a Creative brief?

A creative brief's sole purpose is to help towards a better creative product.


It is for the Team, not for the Client, so avoid jargon - or at least explain the
jargon if it's needed.
It should be succinct: If you can't write it in one page, how can they advertise
it in one page or 30 seconds?
It should inform, involve and inspire the Team to make a creative leap.

Creative brief is

CREATIVE BRIEFING SESSION


Dont confuse the brief with the briefing.
The briefing meeting is your opportunity to bring your key thought alive in a way that will both inform
and inspire.
The briefing meeting is not a dry handover, from planning to creative - but the opportunity
to inspire great work.
PREPARE
How you brief depends on whom you brief
Do you know the team? Have you briefed them before?
What do they already know about the client / brand / ads?
How do they approach a project?
Do they favor a particular advertising style?
And dont forget theatre!
Where should it be?
What should you have to hand?
Can they experience the product?
Or can you replicate the feeling you get from it?

Get out of the office


Go to where the brand lives
Brief a vodka brief in a bar, brief a
sports brand in a gym

BRINGING THE BRIEF TO LIFE


1. Location

But beware empty theatre

BRINGING THE BRIEF TO LIFE


2. Prepared Evidence

Insomniacs video diaries

Kids own photo diaries

Briefing video

BRINGING THE BRIEF TO LIFE


3. Direct Experience

Waiting room

Playing with the dough

Get the puppy in

REMEMBER
No need to show the background work!

Welcome questions

Dont be surprised to get questions


Never become defensive
And dont close down what if questions

After the briefing

Its not over yet!


Dont leave them for three weeks!
Go and see the team the next day
Encourage them to ask questions throughout the creative process
Be available
Stay open minded
Encourage courage

THE IMPACT OF DIGITAL AGE


IN DIGITAL AGE, DO WE NEED A DIGITAL CREATIVE BRIEF?
This isn't about the digital brief. It's about a better brief for the post-digital world.
If we seriously want to create a better brief, we need to find out what has changed.
In my view the thing that has changed is the number of dimensions in a marketing ecosystem.

Digital l c hi: mt cng c tuyt vi chng ta c th thc thi bt c tng th v no. V c nhng tng
th v , chng ta phi c nhng thu hiu tuyt nht...
INFORM TO INVOLVE
SEND BRAND MESSAGE
Add tangible/ augmented values to product
Make interesting branded content
Create meaningful branded participant
Deliver brand experience/ promise in an entertaining way
Create social value

IN DIGITAL AGE, THE CREATIVE BRIEF REMAIN THE SAME, BUT


The objective is larger. Its not about what we say but what we do for people, what people do and the impact we make
to the whole society
We should understand our target deeper in term of media habit and how they use digital channels
The message territory proposition should be bigger, wider to fit with multi-dimension media landscape
For product information, we should inspire creative team how to enhance this product by digital tool
Requirement, Mood & Tone & Mandatory: Its not client requirement, its our recommendation

COMPONENT OF CREATIVE BRIEF


There are many different formats but in general there are some key
components of a creative brief:
1. Set the background & objective
2. Set the target audience and insight
3. Define the message territory proposition
4. Support what you promise product information
5. Requirement, Mood & Tone & Mandatory

1. SET THE BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE


Background
Company/Brand information
Competition landscape
Consumer mindset
Category trend
Culture trend
Brand challenge/ Advertising challenge
Why we need to do this ad ?
Get people to buy X
Launch Z
Announce the improvement of Y
To raise awareness of W
To communicate that J
To tell people that Q
These are marketing objectives, not creative
objectives!

To entice people to try this Z


To get users of this service to feel better about paying
more for X
To get people to use this J instead of this H
To encourage people to consider
switching back to K
Real, clear precise Just not that colourful yet
To let people experience Scotti as a convenience and
hygiene snack when they travel
To pour our love/hate relationship with France in
Kronenbourgs favour
To accelerate the growth of the current user by
convincing them that Vietnamobile values their current
users more than anything.
To educate mother a new scientific topic in an
entertaining and engagement way
To let people participate and talk about Ashley furniture
as the most stylist furniture store in town
GOLD STANDARD

2. DEFINE TARGET AUDIENCE

Demographics (age, income, work, gender...)


Psychographics (attitude, life-stage...)
Product usage habits (current vs potential vs competitors users,...)
Insight

Be specific
Be real
Be colourful
Be friendly
Be individual

A real case - Beeline:


14-25, urban guy, looking for a first SIM to connect and open their world. Theyre young, eager for new thing,
want to learn more, explore more, experience more.
When they buy a first SIM card, they start a new chapter of their life. Its really special moment. Its their
progression.
Theyre exciting about their future. But they still need somebody travel with them in the life, empower them,
inspire them, and support them by giving them a tool.
Big3 is talking about 3G technologies, on-net offer, internet mobile or privileges for heavy users. In our
consumer mind, theyre boring, old, established & serious.

PROPOSITION IN CREATIVE BRIEF


How to write a proposition that inspire great ads
BRIEFING
Your brief paper is just for administration, briefing bring your thought to life
Prepare anything that inspire your creative friend
Dont brief and run
Inform, Invite, Inspire and Involve
Giving trigger word and correct amount of facts

WHERE BRIEF GO WRONG


1. Opposites: brief that include contradictions
2. Repetitive words
3. Wishful thinking
4. Lazy thinking
5. Complicated thinking
Producing/writing the Creative Brief
IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE DO
Within the Brief
THE PROPOSITION ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS

WHATS PROPOSITION?

SO-WHAT

HOW TO WRITE A GOOD PROPOSITION?

IMPLE

NEXPECTED

ONCRETE

When faced with a complex issue, your job is to make it simple. Dont try to be too intellectual/
too creative
Remember youre making the first layer of creative idea. Youre opening the door for creative,
not closing. Keep it short and simple enough to leave room for your creative team
Keep it single-minded. Boil it down to one message, one thought only
Never fall into the trap of double-meanings: Ajinomoto MSG. For healthy appetites
Are we saying its healthy or are we saying its for people who eat a lot !
Say one thing OR the other, not both !
Dont be lazy! Dont come up with something that you consumer knew before.
Its extremely hard to get people attention. Find something news, surprising, original,
like.no.other

A proposition based purely on image or lifestyle leads nowhere


- the way you live today
- We bring you more experience
and leaves very little room for good creative work
This will lead to either boring or empty advertising or, at worst, both. Concrete propositions
lead to much stronger advertising

HOW TO WRITE A GOOD PROPOSITION?


REDIBLE

Base it in truth A proposition you cant argue with has a greater chance of leading to strong
advertising
Dont invent benefits or list of virtues, e.g This is the most beautiful car you will ever drive, or
your response will simply be: Oh no, its not !

MOTIONAL

People care about whats in it for me! They do thing to feed theit motivation. Explore the
alternative motivations:
- Why is it people buy?
- Why do they really choose one Brand and not the other?
- etc
What does this benefit do for you? How do you feel during/after using it? Whats their emotional
benefit? Think hard to find the most meaningful and unique emotional benefit.

IMPLE

O-WHAT

Use words with specific meanings: Our new food product is wholesome
What exactly do we mean here?
- Nourishing?
- Healthy?
- Natural?
- Filling?
- Unprocessed?
- etc
Describe explicitly what you mean, avoid bland generalizations
Product statements like Technologically advanced evoke a so-what?
Even the meaningful benefits can be further explored. What is the benefit of the benefit?
Play with your imagination with real consumers value and benefit

SESSION 18

BIG IDEA AND PRACTICE BIG IDEA

BIG IDEA IN ADVERTISING


It takes a big idea to attract the attention of consumers and get them to buy your product. Unless your
advertising contains a big idea, it will pass like a ship in the night. I doubt if more than one campaign in a
hundred contains a big idea.
David Ogilvy
Big Ideas are advertising ideas that connect vividly with target consumers to create a sustainable
competitive advantage for a brand.

A big idea can cut through the noise to capture consumers hearts and minds
It is not execution idea but brand idea
It is not slogan but value behind brand
It comes from consumer, not brand

WHY BIG IDEA


Big ideas are more important than ever. They make the creative development process flow more
efficiently and more effectively, thus leading to better creative work and stronger in-market results.

Big idea is core of integrated campaign


Bid idea make brand building more effective
Big idea is great brand communication asset

CHARACTERISTICS OF GENUINELY
BIG IDEA
1. Big ideas is campaign-able We know drama Never experienced
Big ideas, at first, are able to develop into good ideas across all channels.
2. Big ideas stretch brands Have a break. Have a Kit Kat
A big idea pushes and extends brand boundaries without breaking them.
3. Big ideas resonate with consumers Keep walking
For an idea to be powerful, it must hit home with consumers in a meaningful way. It must be based on an
idea thats authentic. And though it may contain a rational appeal, a big idea usually strikes an emotional
chord

4. Big ideas are disruptive Dirt is good


One of most important elements for any big idea is that it is a game-changer. It shifts paradigms and
turns category convention on its head. Taking distinctiveness to the extreme, a big idea represents a new
way of thinking, feeling, or acting.

CHARACTERISTICS OF GENUINELY
BIG IDEA
5. Big ideas have talk value True beauty
The biggest and best ideas generate buzz and word of mouth. People feel compelled to share their
reactions to these emotionally charged, highly resonant, and game-changing propositions.
6. Big ideas transcend time, cultural and geographic boundaries Absolute / Live young
The biggest of big ideas are truly universal. Cutting across distinctions of class and ethnicity, the biggest
ideas speak to people at a fundamental human level.
Practice
1. Think campaign for Solite - a hungry management solution big idea
2. Find a big idea for youth brand from universal youth insight
3. Find a big idea that disruptive and have a talk value for male deodorant brand
4. Find a big idea to stretch brands for chocolate brand

SESSION 19

INTEGRATED COMMUNICATION

DIGITAL
Digital is not a medium. Digital is an infrastructure.
The internet has changed nothing. Except compel
us to be better.

INTEGRATED MARKETING COMMUNICATION

Integrated Marketing Communications is a simple concept. It ensures that all forms of communications and
messages are carefully linked together.
At its most basic level, Integrated Marketing Communications, or IMC, as we'll call it, means integrating all
the promotional tools, so that they work together in harmony.
Approach 1: all media same message
Approach 2: customize outcome for each medium
Approach 3: each medium is born different
Approach 4: consumer journey planning
