CASE STUDY: PAGODA SALON & SPA


_
OPPORTUNITY
Tom Schmidt came to us with the need to name, create and differentiate a hip, posh Midwest spa brand – Pagoda – to attract affluent females in the Mpls/St. Paul metro area and Midwest region amidst a cluttered “salon spa” category.
The spa was intended to create an experience unlike any other in the region, so we were excited to create a brand experience that would match that very same thinking.
That’s where we came in.

PROCESS
We studied their organization. We defined the audiences. We gained insight and understanding by pointing out their distinctive differences and perceived responses. We then used the power of imagery and words to define the brand’s personality — its DNA.
