My Approach

My approach is to leverage an +20 years expertise in trend research, consumer insights, brand strategy, and conceptual activation to produce reports and publications that enable brands to position themselves uniquely against the competition, establish thought-leadership, and create insights that build reputation and increase awareness, through strategic PR, content, and brand development.

The power of insights and trend knowledge

In today's fast-paced world, resting on an old loyalty base is not an option when preparing for a future where loyalty is elusive, and consumers make seismic changes on demand.

 

I create insights about future behaviours, define the strategic role for your business, and turn it into actions that help you stay ahead of the curve.

My reports provide valuable insights that help you stay ahead of the competition and gain a deeper understanding of your target audience. With our help, you'll be able to position your brand uniquely and generate interest and demand for your products and ideas.

Consumer Insights Sustainability

UPLOAD WEBSITE .001.jpeg

I’m specialised in consumer centric sustainability and help brands understand global drivers, value changes, and macro trends and how that could be defined into their strategic platform and turned into a roadmap of sustainability actions.

The NXT Sustainable Consumer Report 2023 - The Post Purpose Activists - is a trend report based on quantitative data from a nationally representative sample of 2,405 respondents in Sweden and Denmark. The report is part of Above The Cloud's : Future Series on sustainability and lifestyle behaviours linked to consumption.

Power up Brand Storytelling through Brand Books and Editorial Look Books

A Brand Book or an editorial Look Book should act as a mirror of your brand soul, it should connect buyers, consumers and press with your brand and brand stories. It should be a conversation starter where you are able to position your brand in the head of the consumer as you wish to be perceived. 

 

I work with clients to create publications, either as a full service provider through my network of designers and photographers or together with your in-house team. I usually take care of the content strategy, storytelling ideas, copy writing and visual direction. This could be for brand books, editorial look books, sustainability reports, presentations and folders.
