“I feel like Rick’s become our partner over the years. He’s been studying our company for four years. There’s nobody that I know that works with us on these presentations that has done the preparation that Rick has done. He knows our culture so well. It seems like he’s the one guy who can take the message we’re trying to deliver and tailor it to our audience.”
Tim Vargo, President and COO, and John Adams, Chairman and CEO, AutoZone

We can include:

  1. Executive readiness workshop -- We’ll help you assess where you stand and what you’ll need to ensure success.

  2. Fast Answers -- Qualitative and Quantitative research with real answers -- FAST!

  3. Deep Answers -- A more traditional approach to research that delivers more certainty and more depth. This method takes more time and a larger investment, but can be more effective in some circumstances.

  4. Overpromise Development -- We’ll help you create an articulated Overpromise for your brand that is both powerful and unique.

  5. Customer Experience Visualization and Design -- We’ll help you invent a future brand experience that is engaging and compelling for your customers, and completely aligned with your new Overpromise.

  6. TouchPoint Development -- We’ll help you implement and operationalize your plans to “Passionately Exaggerate” each Critical TouchPoint for customers.

  7. TouchPoint Alignment -- where the real customer magic occurs. We’ll make sure you’ve got the alignment exactly right to ensure maximum customer impact.

  8. Customer Environment design -- From the “portal experience” to window design to web design, the customer environment must reflect your brand. Our design processes will ensure deep compatibility with your brand.

  9. Comprehensive Implementation -- When you’re looking for a total package, we can Overdeliver for you.

We are committed – and passionate – about giving you the time, resources and mindshare required for a successful “intervention”.

Here’s what we ask. It’s important that:

  • We work directly with your executive team.

  • This initiative is driven from the “top”.
