Ways to work with Flying Lizard

Three ways to work with your brand as it develops.

A Strategic Insight provides a structured starting point for understanding where your brand strategy stands, what may need attention, and what support may be appropriate. It captures the information needed to begin a useful conversation and establish what needs to happen next.

If you already know what needs doing next.

You can work directly with Flying Lizard to implement the marketing work your business needs. If you are also considering the wider direction of your brand, Brand Strategy will establish that direction before implementation work begins.

1. Brand Strategy

Establish the foundation your business and suppliers can work from.

Brand strategy alongside our business planning. The work is to bring the different parts of your business, your message and your customer communication into alignment.

A documented brand strategy establishes the position, principles and guidelines that give your business a common foundation. Then, you put into practice, the systems, creative messaging and marketing work which follows.

It takes the strategic thinking and key decisions established and turns them into a written document you own which becomes the system and reference for your business, team and customers to engage with and the people delivering specialist work to follow.

2. Implementation

Putting the strategy into practice without losing its direction.

When the strategy establishes that practical change is required, Brand Strategy Implementation puts that direction into the business.

This starts with how the business presents itself, what it needs to say, and how customers encounter it. Those decisions then become the marketing work and materials required to support the customer journey.

The work may involve:

  • Brand identity. Refining or developing the identity so the business is recognised and understood in the market, including the logo and visual identity.
  • Customer messaging and touchpoints. Defining what the business needs to communicate and how customers encounter it across the different stages of their relationship with the business.
  • Marketing planning and creative development. Turning the strategy and customer requirements into the ideas, messages and campaigns needed to communicate effectively.
  • Digital marketing. Developing the advertising, search and social activity required to reach and attract the right customers.
  • Website. Developing or changing the website so it communicates the position clearly and helps the right customers understand what to do or buy.
  • Marketing materials. Producing the print, digital and physical material required to support the customer journey, including brochures, presentations, signage, point-of-sale and other customer-facing material.

3. Strategic Partnership

Experienced strategic thinking for important business decisions.

Work involves:

Brand Architecture. Development and governance of the relationship between parent brands and sub-brands.
Strategic Repair. Identify where the brand has moved away from its intended position and determine what needs to change.
Growth Mapping. Establish the strategic changes required to support specific commercial goals.
Long Term Valuation. Ensure the brand structure supports future growth, equity or succession.
Operational Alignment. Develop the systems and team governance required to maintain strategic direction as the business grows.

Investment and Engagement.

Bespoke engagement based on the strategic requirement.

Find the Right Level of Support

You do not need to decide which service you require before understanding the situation.

Strategic Insight helps establish whether the right next step is to develop your strategy, put it into practice, or discuss a more bespoke requirement.
