Brands - instruments for change

Branding projects often get stuck in implementation. Platforms, vision statements and the mandatory set of core values do not stick and the efforts risks failing. The reasons can be many but most often it is about lack of understanding of internal complexity.

If you are looking for long-lasting effect the best way is to run the process internally. Our method is to team up with your organisation and drive brand-related change from the inside.  It´s all about the nitty-gritty details and hard work. The entire organisation needs to be involved since the person who meets the brand must get same experience regardless brand touchpoint.

A good idea is about ten percent and implementation and hard work, and luck is 90 percent.

I didn´t always have the same ideas as Magnus, but I see that as something positive. That means Magnus stands up for his standpoint, and I for mine. To have a consultant standing up for his idea is in the end of the day what you´re looking for and that is Magnus strength. You want a person that stands up for what he or she can. It´s then you can trust the consultant.
