The Details

Here are some of the things we may do in your custom
Innovative Product Go‑to‑Market Roadmap™

  • Identify the 5 Ws and the How specific to your product launch success.
  • Address the 3 pivotal questions behind virtually ALL massively successful product launches (yet over 90% of deployment strategies entirely miss). We nail them down through a combination of brain science, psychology and the buyer’s true needs with our unique CLIMB™ process.
  • Expose critical product weaknesses, blind spots, fragile dependencies and latent fatal errors that could lead to product failure.
  • Provide insights and experience-backed recommendations to mitigate weaknesses and threats.
  • Map your PowerAudience™ Focus Strategy: apply your product’s 90/10 rule to laser focus on out-the-gate profitability.
  • Craft Your Messaging Strategy: What will be the product’s most impactful messages, and how will precisely the right ones be communicated to each buyer type? Our messaging strategy typically includes a positioning statement, elevator pitch, unforgettable marketing taglines and a sales deck.
  • Define Buyer Behaviour Profiles: We personify your product’s ideal buyers with maximum lifetime value, and identify relevant challenges they face, the solutions currently in use, as well as the conditions and incentives necessary to trigger behavioural change.

    Establishing early wins is critical to a successful product launch. We identify market entry points where customers are easiest to reach, convert and delight—building the foundation for full-scale market leadership.

With our Market Opportunity Assessment, we conduct market research and advise you on the estimated market value, your pricing and strategies to reach customers with the highest lifetime value. An MOA is essential to securing grants and investment, because it provides the most accurate view of the market’s potential size.

Product Brand Name Development & Positioning Strategy

Naming a product can keep inventors and product teams awake at night. By nature it’s highly subjective, a lot is at stake—and it’s a serious long-term commitment. That’s why we’ve made a clearly defined process of it. Our research and methodology driven process for product brand name development targets your buyers’ hot buttons, paying attention to linguistics, connotations, psychology and sound-alikes, along with the availability of trademarks and web domains. Product naming can be complicated and has far-reaching impacts, so it’s worth getting right, from the very start.

A-Z Brand Name Development and Strategy

The Details

Includes:

  • Discovery meeting and client survey.
  • Our brand naming process and presentation: we explore hundreds of possibilities and qualify the best.
  • Product name research including initial trademark, domain and usage searches.
  • Minimum of 5 vetted product names with our recommendations and rationales.
  • Presentation of recommended names.
Starts at: US $8,000

Meetings are conducted remotely. Recommended prerequisite: Innovative Product Go-to-Market Roadmap™ (subtract $3,000 if purchased together).

Single-Issue Consulting

Got a simpler need or interested in testing for fit before investing in a deeper engagement? We’re happy to target a single product concern. As professionals in a specialized field we can’t let people pick our brains for free (we’re asked all the time and it’s not fair to all our paying clients), but this is the next best thing.

The Details

Includes:

  • A consultation video conference or voice call where you can ask any questions you want about product branding, marketing, funding, industrial design, prototyping, manufacturer sourcing or intellectual property. If we don’t have an answer on the spot we’ll get back to you via email.
Starts at: US $1,000

Meetings are conducted remotely by a senior product strategist and can last up to two hours. No credit for unused time, so please plan your questions in advance. If we need to get back to you with an answer or elaborate on a few key points, there is no additional charge. Specialized research and additional sessions are prepaid at US $500/hr, or you can pay by the minute via Clarity.fm.

Intellectual Property Protection:

Trademark Registration & Patent Lawyer Referral

Safeguarding your intellectual property has never been more important than it is in today’s connected world. Protect your invention from identity theft and product counterfeiting by patenting it correctly in every market that matters to you. We help clients understand patents and secure their IP with a knowledgeable and niche-appropriate expert.

Packaging & Label Design

Up to 90% of retail purchasing decisions are made at point of sale, where customers judge your product by its packaging and presentation. Innovative, quality packaging distinguishes you from competitors, and unboxing has become a pivotal step in experiential marketing and social engagement: that’s why it can be such an important component of Obsession Branding™. Let’s ensure your packaging protects the merchandise, ships efficiently, grabs attention, creates desire—and jewel-boxes your amazing product!

eCommerce Websites for Online Sales

Perhaps nowhere is great experience more impactful than in how you sell online. Whether you have a single product or an eCommerce store with thousands of items, our brilliant UX designers and developers make it beautiful, user-friendly, robust and secure.
