Innovating for the future with AngelCare & Genie
Portfolio & New Product (2022)
My Role:
Business Advisor
Brand Strategist
Creative Director
Marketer
Deliverables:
Portfolio Strategy & Strategic Definition (business unit definition, positioning, whitespace, target audience)
Brand Foundations (mission, vision, values, essence, pillars)
Brand Expression (character, voice & tone, messaging strategy)
Visual Expression (vision boards, logo, colors, typography, imagery)
Innovation Ideation (future mapping, market sizing, ideation sketches)
Highlights:
Crafted a strategy that aligned two iconic brands under a unified vision.
Learned how to modernize a legacy brand without losing its loyal customer base.
AngelCare and Diaper/Litter Genie were household names (in Europe…), but they needed a modern refresh and a solid structure to the business units. My team and I developed a full portfolio strategy to position both brands for the future, and leaving room for a potential third business unit in the future. We then set out to develop a innovation brainstorm to develop new products across the organization. This included following e-commerce data to predict future trends and markets that had growth opportunities.
My main takeaway from this project was that I adore research, and it is so cool that as strategists we can predict and follow trends and innovations before they ever happen.
