If you search for account planning or strategic planning, there will likely be numerous links to varying methods used by agencies and brands. However, the desired outcome is most likely in sync with one another.

Account planning always begins with a clear problem that needs a solution. Research is typically the next step but this is usually where the differences begin to appear. The type of research data and how much is required are just a couple of factors considered. In our case, we start with a proprietary workshop called Lab360°™. Here we take our client's stakeholders through a collaborative session to uncover the true DNA of the brand and more insight to help support our efforts in arriving at a solution we can implement.

The Consumer Experience Model™ is one of the methodologies we created and employ to help us in visualizing what the audience we want to communicate is like. We uncover many layers until we've narrowed the audience down to a unique microsegment. Following this, we take all of the insight and begin putting the pieces together of what later becomes the master strategy that is at the core of all of the advertising and marketing we execute.

By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
