Strategic Repositioning & Leadership Alignment for Leadership Teams Navigating Growth, Change or Market Repositioning

“Persona Design successfully applied their extensive branding experience from consumer goods directly to an important industrial B2B product range within our organisation. This was pivotal in the formulation of our brand communications strategy which also included design, packaging, point of sale material and brand promotional plan, all of which contributed to a very successful commercial outcome.”

“The Maguire & Paterson brand was established in 1882 and therefore the strategy, rebranding and new packaging had to be managed in a very sensitive and caring manner.

Persona Branding & Design worked very effectively with the M&P management team ensuring that the findings of consumer research were correctly interpreted and factored into the brand revitalisation and new range designs. We found their ability to steer us of significant benefit.

Lorraine Carter also ensured that we kept our focus on core objectives and diplomatically challenged us at various stages on our thought process, ensuring that any brand preferences did not stray from the core objectives.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Lorraine and we would be very pleased to speak with any potential client(s).”
