Framing

Looking to increase market share? Breaking into new territories? Want to ensure your next move in the market drives significant growth? It all starts with helping us to understand the objectives you’re working towards.

Zoom out - understand the market you play in

We collect primary and secondary data to size and define your market and customer segments, competitors, channels and propositions. Armed with these insights, we develop a state of play report detailing and defining the market, competitive context, propositions, and emerging market trends.

Detail the potential routes to growth, and form a hypothesis on which set of growth levers are in play – providing a fresh perspective on the opportunities for growth available to you.

Creating a strategy - size, evidence and prioritise routes to growth

Assess the attractiveness and attainability of each growth lever, taking in consideration value, time to impact, investment required and other factors, and synthesise them into a comprehensive growth strategy narrative.
