Proof, if needed, that you can’t keep a Goodmans down.
Consumer electronics is practically a fashion category these days. Brands have to flex and refocus without missing a beat. We helped Goodmans penertrate new categories with a brand refresh in technicolour.
We began by considering the idea that should animate Goodmans as a whole. This is ‘brilliantly simple’. It captures the essence of their accessible positioning in a positive, design-relevant way. Goodmans products are attractive and affordable, offering up to the minute features and functionality.
This led to a new way of writing the name and a mascot to embody the brand spirit. The clever, darting squirrel is a friendly, farsighted presence, familiar and much loved in British parks and gardens. Squirrels find and store good things for later – so far so simple. Amazingly, they can always remember where they put them – that’s the brilliant bit.
Goodmans reported excellent results in its first year from launch, establishing valuable market share in product categories it had not previously competed in.
