Brand Creation: Octopus Investments
• Since 2001, Octopus Investments doubled in size every year. Now they are intent becoming a major force in the City. What kind of brand should they become?
• With their focus on service, unusual name, and youthful drive, we helped Octopus eschew the usual boastfulness of the investment category to position itself as ‘human interested’ - from an Octopus point of view.

Brand Storytelling : Never-ending Stories
• Creating Brand Stories teaches communicators how to apply the lessons of novel and screenwriting to brand building.
• HATS² enables brands to identify who the hero is, what kind of story the brand can tell, the themes of the story and its genre, and the storytellers who can bring the story life.
• The Brand Episode wheel helps exciting stories to be created.
