Rochford Supply Strategic Planning & Brand Refresh
With outdated branding and messaging creating a weak base for launching new national-quality brands and products, I led the leadership team through core statement development and strategic planning to ensure shared ownership of their identity and vision for the future (10, 3, and 1-year plan). I then led the creation and smooth rollout of updated brand identity, messaging, and collateral from digital marketing to package design.
CushionCraft Brand Creation & Launch
When poor foam product line organization and names were making it difficult for customers to find the best foam for their project, I was invited to facilitate the reorganization of the entire foam line, lead the creation of a new national-quality brand, develop clear product names and collateral, and execute a new brand launch. Foam soon rose to the #1 top selling category and caught the attention of JoAnn Fabrics which now carries the line.
AquaTop Brand Creation & Launch
With three underperforming marine fabrics with confusing names and poor competitor differentiation, I led the leadership team in defining differentiated positioning, creative-directed compelling national-quality branding, messaging, and collateral, and developed and executed a successful marketing launch including everything from sample fabric books to a landing page.
Rochford Catalog Redesign & Product Photography
Faced with the prospect of going to print with an outdated catalog, I creative-directed a total catalog redesign (170 pages) with updated branding and messaging, beautiful new product photos, and refreshed product categories and descriptions consistent with the company's e-commerce site.
Curt does an extraordinary job...
As a result, I referred them to a long-time client. Curt and the team took the time to gain a thorough understanding of the clients' situation, needs, new strategy and direction. Only then did they recommend and build the tools required to help them reach their vision. Great work!"
