Navigating Industry 4.0
with Human Agency

We monitor macro trends with a focus on finance, wellness, organizational development, and human agency. We support clients with insight (market, customer, competitor), strategy (outcome-based decision-tree frameworks), and GTM (narrative structure, launch sequence, and stakeholder relations).

Journey Mapping

Plot the steps each type of customer takes via acquisition, activation, and retention. Find gaps to experiment with new user flows.

Product Planning

Determine 'problem solution fit' via real-world interviews with potential product users and then test hypothesis with prototypes. The R in R&D.

Value Proposition Design

Start with a variety of value propositions (refined via customer interviews) to hone a proven sales message fit for market.

Brand Positioning

Not just logo design and color palettes! True branding comes from the position the brand holds in the mind of the market.
