Why we need it? Less loyal consumers Fewer competitive barriers Demand for the new and better
Defining the right brief
“If I had an hour to solve a problem I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.” Albert Einstein

What value are you creating? NEED WHO VALUE

NEED WHO VALUE measurable tangible indispensable What value are you creating?
The value is subjective What they believe What they see as the benefits
Consumers simply want… To solve their problems New solutions Better results Feel happier
