IF Post Covid-19 Marketing and brand building in a new world-part 5Jacques Erasmus
Idea Foundry hosted a webinar on Marketing and brand building in a new world. Where we explore 5 Key areas for brand focus, we see that will impact brands and their marketing in the "new world" We have been asked if there is a more detailed presentation so we decided to make a more detailed presentation available in a 5 part e-book series. Here is part 5 and with the fifth of the 5 Key focus areas for brands.
Over the years we’ve noticed that even amazingly creative and unique companies can struggle with getting ideas off the ground.
Whether it’s a simple fix to an organisational chart, or a bit of nudging in the right direction to help a company to launch a product idea with an impactful return on investment (ROI). Making improvements can turn a new product dream into a reality, and we know the value in having an extra set of eyes (and hands) to help with a company’s innovation efforts.
That’s why we put together this informational guide - to share some of our experiences and help even more teams and companies to leverage their inner talents and unlock their
innovation potential.
In this guide, we’ll share some of our best tips and tricks, including how to:
> Recognise trends and how customer preferences change;
> Focus on your company strengths in order to get the most out of innovation;
> Identify and remove common obstacles to innovation;
> Build levels of innovation that come naturally and are sustained - through the innovation value pyramid; and,
> Use practical exercises to future-proof your innovation efforts.
