It's dog-eat-dog out there.
Competition in the petcare industry is growing.
Only the strong smart survive.
If you're wanting to stay on top, you need the tools it takes to ensure your brand is easy for customers to get, easy to buy, easy to sell, and easy to grow.
That's what the big dogs do.
Are you a new brand and want to get traction fast?
Do you feel like customers don't get your product?
Do you want to launch a new product yesterday?
Are you unsure if your packaging is to blame for poor sales?
Do you feel like you need to invest in better branding and pack design?
How Can You Compete?
Today's big brands have a long-term plan in place, built their platform, expanded into their market via consistent efforts, and become authorities strategically.
Before we tell you how to compete with the big dogs, let's debunk some common marketplace myths.
MYTH #1: BIG BRANDS ARE LUCKY.
Successful brands are consistent in their marketing efforts, not lucky. Like Olympians, they work in brand strategy daily, not just win in a magical moment.
MYTH #2: YOU NEED A WINDFALL.
Authentic brands are pinned on Pinterest, shared in conversations and spread one action at a time. Like sweeping the floor daily, marketing activities grow your brand, not happenstance.
MYTH #3: GREAT BRANDS
USE INTUITION.
Not true. They're not just in the right place at the right time, they've also planned how to be. They're using brand economics and insights to ensure their success. Stop following your gut.
MYTH #4: IT'S GOT TO BE PERFECT.
Today's petcare brands are pivoting fast, not worrying about perfection. If you're not agile, you're left behind and yesterday's news. Growing brands have an advantage over monoliths––they can pivot, and pivot fast to market changes.
MYTH #5: THE BRAND IS THE HERO.
Stop playing the hero in the story, and invite your customers into one. Stop trying to win over customers and delight them instead. Invite them, you are their guide. You're Yoda, not Luke.
MYTH #6: YOU'LL KNOW IT
WHEN YOU SEE IT.
Transform your brand by using brand science, strategy-driven design, and brand economics, not throwing darts to see if you hit your target.
What they have that you don't.
Leading petcare brands are using succinct brand strategy, award-winning design agencies, and valuable research insights to inform their decisions.
Why aren't you? Is it because you think you're too small?
Afraid or not sure you can even afford a branding agency?

You need a partner who knows brand strategy
that can help get you there. Someone who knows how to
navigate the terrain. You need a guide (dog?).

PHENOMENOLOGY
Our study of brands includes the study of experiences. We use phenomenology as a reference to understand brand experiences in relation to perception, imagination, thought, emotion, desire, volition, and action, to name a few. It's how we ensure experiences are powerful.
