WE CREATE LATERAL VALUE FOR PEOPLE, GLOBAL BRANDS + BUSINESSES

 


LET’S CREATE LATERAL VALUE

A difficult truth: your key competitors are just as smart, logical + linear as
you.

They run the same research, use the same consultants, studied the same MBA case
studies, make the same assumptions, and reach similar solutions.

They love logical, and linear thinking. 

Yet to thrive today, you must go beyond logical + linear, to create lateral
value.

Edward De Bono: "Lateral thinking is a manner of solving problems using an
indirect and creative approach via reasoning that is not immediately obvious. It
involves ideas that may not be obtainable using only traditional step-by-step
logic”.

We are a team of global lateral minds.

We go beyond logical and linear, to Lateral. 

We’ve developed value for 90+ brands in 40+ countries.

We create value via new ideas, better experiences, reframed TAM, new audiences,
relevant features & products, fresh insight, direct channels, compelling
engagement, breakthrough narratives + other lateral moves.

All fueled by data, insights, patterns, culture + creativity.

All inspired + grounded in your people, customers, company + brand.

We engage with you as consultants, or venture partners, or providers of access
to other expert specialist marketing companies, and finally X (secret brand
projects that we never disclose or acknowledge publicly).

If you’re in the US, Europe, or Asia, we would love to co-create, co-invest, and
consult with you to identify new lateral value for your brand + business.
