Growth Strategy and Planning

Continuous innovation is the hallmark of great brands and great businesses. E-Star consultants have worked with some of the leading companies in developing new product strategies, processes and concepts, including concept testing and launch planning.

Growth strategy begins with a strategic audit to identify customer needs, opportunities, and brand leverage points. Adjacent growth opportunities – new products, new markets, new channel initiatives, etc. – are then identified and prioritized using strategic, financial and brand screens. New concepts are then developed and optimized with customers, with implementation planning a final step. Throughout the process, customer input is balanced with management judgment to ensure that distinctive, implementable solutions emerge.


Brand Strategy and Brand Building

What should my brand stand for and deliver on? How many brands should be supported and through what means? How should a newly acquired brand be integrated into the existing brand portfolio?

These and other issues are addressed in our brand strategy practice, which focuses on establishing the brand identity, brand positioning and brand architecture, at both the corporate and product level. Brand strategy is designed to create a vision for the optimal brand/customer experience, and translate that vision into efficient and effective action plans for delivering on the brand promise across key customer touch points.


Market and Competitive Analysis

Who are the most attractive segments to target? What are their key attitudes, behaviors and benefits sought? How are key industry competitors responding, and what "white space" opportunities should be pursued?

Offered as either a stand-alone service or as an input to other services, market assessment and competitive analysis provides a critical input to strategy formulation. Market segmentation, customer interviews/focus groups, trend research, and best practice studies are just some of the methods we employ in gaining market and competitive insight. Whether fielded in-house or through one of our research vendors, we provide the necessary fact-based reasoning in support of strategic decision-making.
