Consumer Centric Innovation
to grow the brand
When Fiskars decided to enter the pro tool category, they knew that trade professionals had to be an integral part of the process to ensure a winning concept and impactful messaging at shelf.
decision point approach
For this challenge, we executed an iterative, multi-phased research approach:
- Ethnographic research including observational research, 1:1 interviews, and shop-along interviews with tradespeople were conducted to gain a deep understanding of the target prosumer and inform product development.
- We tested concepts and prototypes in order to refine and improve the concepts, and to understand which features were critical.
- Using our iterative Message Optimization tool, we completed research that helped identify optimal package messaging to drive the most sales.
