Change is the only constant for brands. Digital has created new challenges and almost limitless possibilities.
The pressure to respond to this dynamic is growing. Quality is often sacrificed for speed, but over-caution often leads to missed opportunities.
Traditional approaches to innovation no longer cut it. Understanding the context in which people buy and use products and services is crucial to their design, brand positioning and ultimate success.

A leader in imported beer wanted to explore opportunities within the growing segment of lighter, more drinkable products, to address slowing sales and profits.
We used Matrix, a systematic approach to directing and prioritising innovation opportunities to evaluate the landscape of over 50 beers, understand tensions and unmet needs, and reveal the real potential from different drinking occasions.
We identified a major gap in the largest need-state for beer, where brand value, product value and satisfying drinkability intersect. Meeting this unmet need would appeal to underdeveloped customers, drive incremental growth and enhance brand equity.
The client developed an entire business plan around the need-state, and the resulting product launch exceeded sales goals by more than 50 per cent.
