Industry Standard Advisor - Brand Development Catalyst
My motto is: Drive Success to its Brim. When you no longer see a limit, you have reached ultimate success.
If you are aiming for results, you are probably recognizing that you need to take steps to reach them.
Now is the time you ask: Are you seeking a consultant or deciding whether it is worthwhile to speak with one?
Polina understands how to capture marketing and strategic issues. As a marketer, she knows how sales and marketing teams use information. As a startup consultant, she knows how investors like to receive and how they actually interpret information.
Polina designs and creates a custom approach tailored to each client's unique situation and brings extensive business experience with proven analytical techniques that lead to high-impact and actionable insights.
Contact me today and discover why working with me is a combination that may work for you.
"If you can't quickly, succinctly and efficiently show [investors] what makes your company strong, they know you won't be reaching potential customers, either," How can you be direct, concise, and effective at the same time in your branding? Remember: a brand enables you to quickly communicate your target audience and the value you bring into their lives.
One of my strengths is in translating facts into actionable insights that are aligned with a client's business needs.
Polina provides Market Research & Branding Consulting. This encompasses market research, forecasting, budgeting, personnel management, lifecycle management, professional development, product branding, start-up strategy development, and administrative processes.
I focus on 10 Design Thinking Tools: 1. Visualization 2. Journey Mapping 3. Value Chain Analysis 4. Mind Mapping 5. Brainstorming 6. Concept Development 7. Assumption Testing 8. Rapid Prototyping 9. Customer Co-Creation 10. Learning Launch
I work with the following framework:
1.Define the challenge: Develop a set of powerful questions to surface opportunities, and frame innovation.
2.Gather data: Learn how to gather data through qualitative research such as observation and storytelling to augment traditional forms of data gathering. Tools include Journey Mapping and Value chain analysis
3.Reframe and clarify the challenge: Make sense of research by seeing patterns, themes, and larger relationships between the information. Challenge assumptions and illuminate opportunities latent within the organization.
4.Artful reflection: Cultivate your intuition and develop aesthetic ways of knowing. The elegant solution wins in the marketplace. Visualization: Develop visual thinking skills to de-code images, and communicate ideas visually. Visual literacy transcends the limitations of language, and activates our senses. Tools include Mind mapping, sketching and painting.
5.Ideate: Learn six idea generation tools to foster shifts in perception, break out of traditional mind-sets, and generate seed ideas for innovation, including SCAMPER, Metaphorical thinking, connecting the dots, and Edison's invention techniques.
6.Evaluate: Identify the criteria you need to evaluate ideas; learn the distinction between critiquing and criticizing an idea; give feedback that enhances creativity rather than crushes it.
7.Prototyping: Create a visual tangible representation of your idea and present it to the group for feedback. Create a feasibility and an adoption checklist to get people onboard. Customer co-creation: Exploring alternative futures with your internal and external customers
8.Assess: Gather feedback from prototype. Assess outcomes, and refine your project. Develop a set of feedback questions to get the information you need, i.e., does this add value to the customer?
9.Implement: Create an action plan and test-drive your innovation
10.Iterate: Assess results, modify and improve, using this framework.
