Challenge

A New Chapter

Following a merger with DMJ Recruitment in London, Briefed needed a new Brand Strategy that would effectively bring both businesses and their respective teams together. In the short-term, the new services on offer were required to be featured on a new website, with a consistent tone of voice being used across all touchpoints and comms. Longer term, they needed re-alignment that will help them to realise ambitious plans for future growth.

Solution

Evolving > Merging

We carried out an intensive half-day Brand Strategy workshop with representatives from both the Briefed and DMJ Recruitment teams, re-examining everything through the new lens. This allowed us to define a revised Brand Strategy document with Purpose, Mission, Vision, Values, Market Positioning and Tone of Voice. Competitor Analysis, Customer Personas and Messaging examples were included to bring more depth to the new Brand Strategy document, allowing it to act as a practical document and one that could facilitate the onboarding of new team members.

Compliant Content

Following review of the new Brand Strategy, the document was then used to create a wider knowledge base for a custom ChatGPT channel. This allowed new website and marketing content to be generated that was consistent with Tone of Voice guidelines and with minimal curation. It also provided a useful tool for team members to use in their day-to-day comms.

Result

One Brand. One Voice.

The new Brand Strategy and custom ChatGPT channel has given Briefed the content they needed to bring the team together, as well as activate their new website. There is now common understanding among company directors, which helps the decision-making process. Onboarding for new team members can also take place in a much more consistent way, with greater understanding of various target audiences and how they should communicate with them. Going forward, the new, future-proofed Brand Strategy will now help to the team to achieve their desired growth, working towards a shared Vision and expanding into new markets.

Orlagh Kelly, Briefed

“Working with Horrible Brands was a turning point for us. They helped us see our brand through a new lens—one that brought two businesses together under a single, unified strategy. The Brand Strategy and AI tools they developed have not only shaped our communications but also streamlined how our team works day to day. We now have clarity, consistency, and a shared direction. It’s been transformational.”
