Business-to-Business
Brief
After talking to B2B's owner Howard, we felt that their brand proposition of 'increasing your wealth, so you can do more of what you love' didn't really get to the heart of what made this business tick. Something was missing.
So we interviewed Howard - along with his senior manager Adrian - to understand why they do what they do - what motivates them to run the business the way they do. From this, we found the source for their inspiration - and an understanding of how they deliver their unique brand of accountancy. As it turns out, Howard wasn't an average suburban accountant by a long-shot. He was more of a detective than an accountant. Working with his clients to dig beneath the number to discover the real motivators for his clients. And that's how we brought B2B's Brand Story alive - using the analogy of a 'detective agency.'

Results
The Brand Story successfully identified B2B's key point of difference and put into words what they were really about. Howard explained afterwards that the Brand Story helped the staff to identify with the business and gave them a sense of pride in the work they do and the values they uphold.
B2B believe the new Story will help to attract new and like-minded customers to their business. We will update this case study as results emerge over the coming months.
