Brand development (Hollywood icon) – Successfully developed a brand of diamond jewellery that is closely aligned to a globally recognised Hollywood icon. Through the use of extensive qualitative market research and data interpretation, a detailed strategic direction was identified for implementation that marries both the celebrity and diamond jewellery together, in a compelling consumer proposition. More specifically this project delivered:

• Brand positioning - identification of the most suitable target audience for the ‘branded diamond jewellery' in terms of age, income levels and geographic location
• Identification of the core attributes of the celebrity and how they converge with the attributes of jewellery, diamonds and the needs and motivations of the consumers themselves – to form the basis of the brand concept
• Definition of the design parameters to be considered for this celebrity's diamond jewellery range that would have the greatest resonance with consumers and make the brand believable.
• Identification of the core messages in relation to the celebrity and the developed concept that will need to be conveyed to consumers in any advertising/promotional work.
• An effective strategy for ‘launching' and marketing the branded diamond jewellery to the retail trade – identifying the most appropriate channels for distribution.

Educational Seminars – developing, writing and presenting a series of educational seminars to the client's key company personnel and its clients. The seminars provided a thorough grounding on the topics of marketing and branding within the context of the diamond industry.

Corporate Newsletter – managing, writing and publishing a corporate newsletter, on an ongoing basis. The newsletter is designed to keep key internal personnel up to date with global corporate developments.
