When launching a new product or service, there is a strong temptation to just jump in and arrive at branding decisions based on your assumptions.
And while that may be a quick and cheap way to get up and running, it might also be one of the most costly decisions you'll ever make—when you discover your assumptions were wrong and you need to retool your brand from the ground up (assuming your company is still around).
Right now Studiofluid is working with a Food and Beverage company looking to break into the saturated Snack Food category. We've been spending time in supermarkets performing design research and have put together a market analysis to help our client with the following:
- Understand the Context and how Snacks are displayed
- Study Market Leaders and Competing Brands
- Discover Packaging Trends
- Find Clichés and Points of Market Over-saturation
- Identify Opportunities for Differentiation
