Exploration
2-hour call with a client, where we discuss 3 components: Customer, Client, Company. As a result, we analyze the client’s request, determine the wishes, goals and form a step-by-step plan for further work.
Market research
We conduct a comprehensive analysis by a team in Russia and the USA: competitors, trends in the soft drinks market in Russia and abroad, trends in packaging design. As a result, we draw a parallel with the current actions of the client, select trends that are relevant to us, conduct a SWOT analysis and identify the strengths and weaknesses of the current product and positioning.
Brand audit
We analyze current materials: identity, packaging, website, communications, customer and audience reviews, tone of voice and positioning. As a result, we offer a list of changes that can be implemented to achieve brand goals, whether it be sales, building a strong community, promoting the brand, and so on.
Target audience
We work out in detail the categories of the target audience, as well as what information and values need to be broadcast for each category. We also prescribed a specific wording when addressing each type of audience in the B2C segment, as well as an example of a basic offer to partners in the B2B segment.
Positioning
We are working on a strong positioning, taking into account the information and conclusions that we received in the previous stages. We describe in detail the mission, values, voice and character of the brand, brand legend, USP in the B2C and B2B segments. All texts, slogans and headlines can be used in brand marketing and communication materials right now.
Communications plan
We wrote down a list of product, team, and mission messages that need to be communicated in order to make a holistic impression on potential customers. Next, we compiled a list of sites (media, communities, bloggers) where we can find the brand’s audience, as well as placement options on each site and other details. We also set out the stages according to which you should start publishing PR materials, launching collaborations, advertising in the media and with bloggers.

We analyzed the current content on the brand’s social networks, analyzed competitors in terms of the same indicators, and also looked at the results of current targeted advertising campaigns. As a result, they identified strengths and weaknesses and came up with a list of suggestions and steps that can be implemented right now.

MagniuM: brand consulting and positioning
– Victoria Sokolova, Founder and CEO of MagniuM.
"Thanks to the Social Animals team and Daria personally. Our company approached with one task: to form the positioning of the brand in the soft drinks market. The peculiarity of our product is the absence of a formed niche in the Russian market of functional drinks.
As a result of the work, we received ready-made tools for image formation, positioning and detuning among competitors, recommendations for the formation of a commercial offer.
In the process of collecting information about our product, we identified weaknesses and strengths. The Social Animals team studied both the Russian and foreign markets and offered the most effective packaging and image-building solutions. The communication plan with potential buyers is written in sufficient detail, the mission and voice of the brand are formed.
Our company received a qualitative analysis and working recommendations for the development of the brand and product."
