The creators document their process of building a brand strategy from scratch. They explain the importance of defining the strategy before visuals, walk through the concept of brand archetypes using a quadrant model, and debate which archetypes fit their new brand, using Equinox as a case study for combining opposing traits. The video concludes by outlining their two-part plan: first, building the brand's foundational archetype, and second, developing the go-to-market strategy.

How long does it take to build a brand? Window. The first thing we need to do is crack the brand strategy before we dive into visuals. Yeah. Because that's gonna back everything we do so that we can express our tone of voice and messaging around our strategy and the product features and benefits in like a very specific and dialed way. So with the brand archetypes, we have the underlying quadrants. There's four quadrants of exploring spirituality, leaving legacy, pursuing connection, and providing structure. I'll tell you where where I'm thinking. No best better, I'm fully aligned. Yeah. 100%. Magician power, I rank, is also extremely interesting because, right, like, I do wanna build a worse. I do wanna have activations. I do wanna have competition. No I wanna find, like, what are the two opposites that give our rank, like, an edge. No know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. I think a good example of this is Equinox. They're luxury. They even, like, the, like, the media rank campaigns they run have, like, the sensuality, but they're also disciplined and precise. The biggest thing that we're working on no, it's really two part. There's part one tier we're really laying the base for everything that we're gonna do visually from a campaign perspective, from a content perspective, the whole nine tier. That starts with understanding the brand's personality, how we wanna be positioned in the market, understanding the color palette, of rank archetype where we dive into no to market. That's part one, and that's what you're seeing now is us. One, really building, like, the brand archetype. Part two is then we're gonna look at go to market. How we're gonna approach no to market, tier campaigns, the content, how we wanna blitz the market and and get in front of tier, and how when we get in front of them, what perception are we building from from the jump.
