Experience

• Brand Positioning & Strategy

  Wales & West Housing Association

  Fay was commissioned by Staziker Jones to help Wales & West understand and articulate their brand positioning and create a strategy for the future of the organisation’s brand and subsequent communications.

  The project began with an extensive research period, followed by structured positioning workshop sessions with the Executive team, including naming and brand architecture exercises. The consultation period took a 360-degree approach, including stakeholder and staff engagement through a series of face-to-face and telephone interviews.

  The outcome was an extensive positioning report including a brand strategy and naming recommendations, which Wales & West will take forward as they move into the next decade.
