DAVID O’HIGGINS . BRAND WORK

MILIEUBrand strategies frequently limit the potential of the very brands they presume to advance. This is
because said plans are often generic and so deficient in terms of being able to expose the hidden
opportunities companies need to grow their brands in unexpected and compelling ways.

OFFERI design strategies that are based on a much broader and deeper understanding of a brand’s business
potential. My work is to advance this potentiality across a spectrum of corporate and product
applications. In essence I offer companies a concrete way of re-evaluating and re-imagining what their
brands can be and how they might prosper. I rethink brands.

VALUEMy approach to strategy and design has high appeal for companies who want to evolve their brands,
especially those who need to reinvent their significance as a result of shifts in their industries.

APPROACHI engineer what I call Brand Singularities. A Brand Singularity is the distillation of a
company’s profound human purpose. A Brand Singularity originates as an enlightenment resulting
from the confluence of intellectual and intuitive inquiries into the essence of a company’s nature.
A Brand Singularity exposes the hidden business opportunities a company needs to grow its brand in
an unexpected and compelling way.
OPPORTUNITYBrand Singularities are glimpses of roads less travelled.
