“We recently came off a campaign with a big social component.
Good news: we demonstrated that social can
drive incremental foot traffic.
Bad news: the team is completely
exhausted. This is not sustainable.”

BRAND LAB DESIGN PRINCIPLES
Resource Constraints
Marketing deliberately caps the
team’s budget right below the
threshold that enables paid media,
forcing the team to be creative in
discovering new paths of growth.
Speed Pass
Marketing suspends traditional
operational constraints (e.g., limited
agency choice set, annual brand
planning, IMC campaign planning)
to enable a new, agile way of work.
Agency Co-Location
Partner with a local agency to
facilitate collaboration and
dramatically reduce turnaround
times.

Low-Risk Brand/Product
Marketing chooses to
experiment on a brand that is a
small part of its portfolio with
historically low investment.
Core Innovation Team
Marketing over-invests in
talent, bringing together high-
performers capable of both strategy
and execution to increase efficiencies
and shared learning.

Start IMC planning with
narrative backbones to
enable scale through
conversation intensity and
duration.
Anticipate multiple
conversation paths and pre-
plan responses to enable
rapid reaction to steer
conversations as they unfold.
Create a real-time
content capability to
enable conversation
amplification and
extension as
narratives unfold.
