guidelines.
6. I.
WE BREAK UP AND REORGANISE REALITY
We penetrate reality, we search it, observe it, listen to it,
not just to have a picture.
We break out reality to read trends in embryo.
The approach
We investigate geography because territory does characterize and condition the culture
We turn to psychology to track down the relationship between personality and need
We use sociology because events must be assessed
We analyse economy because purchasing power is the real driver, the only one able to explain
consumption and its expressions
We listen to the street because it represents the daily social sphere, where thinking originates
and behaviours are performed
The tools
social economical data - Company’s data - desk analysis - ad hoc market research - trend scouting
- competitive arena analysis - trade analysis - media ethnology analysis
7. II. WE IDENTIFY AN ACTIONABLE INSIGHT
We reorganise reality in behavioural styles.
We identify the fil rouge or the catalyst aspiration.
We combine reality again in unexpected and sense-generating paradigms.
.
The approach and the tools
Selection: we weigh exceptions to keep them or reject them – brand, consumer, trade
Contamination: we funnel multiple desires
Elaboration: we stay in touch with consumers to safeguard the company’s ambition
Co-creation: we invite the consumers and the company to the game. And we create together.
8. III. WE ATTRIBUTE THE INSIGHT TO THE STRATEGY
We connect the insight to the Company’s context and ambition.
