You have something that gives you an edge over the others in your field. All you need before you start your campaign for world domination are the right investors in your corner. In a pinch, you might be able to create your own investor pitch. But like acting as your own lawyer, just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.
We take the most important pieces of your story and turn it in to a winning pitch. Our process creates a pitch with everything you need and nothing you don’t -- from strategy, to messaging, to design and production.
The best-loved brands have great stories. What’s your brand’s story? The real power of your brand lies in the story of how you make your customer a hero in her own conquest. Writing that story requires identifying a singular idea that sits at the intersection of your customer’s needs and how you become indispensable to them.
Through exploration we bring out your brand’s unique narrative, including
- your customer’s quest
- your brand’s reason for being
- all the ways your audience will experience your brand, and
- that one-and-only thing they can’t get from anyone else.
The resulting brand story transcends any campaign or tagline and narrates the relationship between your brand and your audience. Unlike other marketing firms, we look beyond your brand’s surface to discover unique and unexposed assets that enable you to connect with your audiences on a highly emotional level. Those connections lead to winning brand experiences.
Sol provides brand strategy, market research and marketing services that enable you to tell your story through creating a winning brand identity and strategy; discovering your ideal customers and connecting with them in powerful ways.
