Questions

What does a strategy engagement include?

A strategy scope can include a context review, positioning, audience priorities and a communication framework. The proposal specifies the research inputs and final documents.

Can strategy support an existing brand?

Yes. Strategy can clarify the role of an established brand without requiring a new identity. We first assess what should be retained and what needs to change.

How does strategy connect to execution?

The direction becomes a practical brief: audience, message, priorities and criteria for evaluating creative work. Execution can then be scoped as a separate workstream.
