NEW OFFERINGS

“Begin somewhere; you cannot build a reputation on what you intend to do.”

—Liz Smith

In an industry where disruption is the norm, going to market with a new offering is more common than ever. Whether you’re trying to move upstream to engage more strategically with clients or planting a flag in a new area of delivery, there are important steps to take in order to set yourself up for success.

In order to stand out to clients, creative services company leaders need to better understand what they distinctly and expertly do that nobody else does and turn that into well-crafted positioning. We clearly identify a potent differentiator for businesses to use and leverage in strategic go-to-market efforts.

We can help you get sharp with focused practices that do the proper due diligence to ensure enough of the variables are in your favor, create an action plan to stabilize your core business while you prototype and develop your new offering—all to go after new business in ways that establish your credibility.

CASE STUDY

An an integrated brand experience agency based in Portland, Oregon.

Years of execution in a sweet-spot of brand delivery had stagnated the project and client opportunities for this 23-year-old independent studio. After catalyzing visionary strategic business planning with the founder, we outlined the approach to determine opportunities for new offerings and detailed the plan to build it.

Insight:
Don’t scale in size while growing a new offering

Growth efforts should distinguish and prioritize between growing a new capability or increasing agency size. To establish a new offering, the team needs space to log wins and understand learnings. Don’t put the pressure of scale on a new offering before it’s good and ready.
