Creating a new wave of doing things?

 

As a full service integrated marketing solutions company, Brandwave is a team of gifted people brought together by a passion to do all we can to help our clients solve problems and grow their business.

 

Additionally we offer a high level of strategic input with some of the nation’s top marketing analysts who have successfully developed and implemented strategies for some of Australia’s leading brands.

 

Of late we are also helping clients with ideation and product innovation as well as channel development.

 

Some of the brands we connect with include:

Nivea, Elastoplast, Mars, Snickers, Selleys, Gloria Jean’s Coffees, Natures Selection Foods, Sanitarium, Blanco, mStation, Die Dietrich and Polyglaze.

 

However, what is our point of difference and what is the legacy we ourselves want to leave behind?

 

The time has come for an agency to have faith in the essential goodness of people, faith in the ability of advertising to contribute positively to lives, faith that will see people uplifted and positively impacted by creative that builds on “higher order” brand attributes.

 

Our vision is to be the leading creative marketing solutions company that brings significant positive change in the hearts + spirits of people in this generation and the generations to come.

 

Brandwave: Creating a new wave of doing things?

 

 

How do we do this?

A company decides it wants its brand/s to go beyond rational benefits and an emotional expression. It wants its brand to have “higher order” attributes, which we call Spiritwave™. Brandwave creates these higher order attributes in the brand. They are reflected in every brand strategy and brand execution. They are based on proven success principles embedded into the fabric of this world – and often overlooked or passed by.

For example, by applying the principle of “as you sow, so you reap” we can create a multi-generational legacy for the brand, extending a products lifecycle.

 

We recognise that this is not what everyone else is doing, but the majority is not always right and we are happy to show examples of where application of the proven success principles we use have led to business success.

 

The Brandwave process does not ignore the importance of creating campaigns that are strategically sound and creatively excellent. The bonus is that our campaigns will add an extra dimension to your brand through injecting Spiritwave™ that will elevate your brand to another level and distance your brand from the competition and leave the world a better place.

 

If you share in our vision, let’s get together and create a new wave of doing things for your brand that will result in brand growth and longevity.

The A.S.K. Solutions Group (A.S.K.) empowers firms to manage their human capital as a strategic asset, by providing them with the ability to:

  • Identify skills and skill-gaps within their workforce

  • Address requirements through blended, customised learning and coaching solutions

  • Track and manage individual performance

  • Locate available specialised talent

  • Scale these solutions from individual staff members, through to worldwide implementations

A.S.K. acts as a true partner to our clients, providing integrated and customised business solutions, which maximise the effectiveness of their human resources. Our goal is always to positively - and where possible measurably - impact business performance.

A.S.K. has around 140 staff globally, with offices in Australia (Sydney and Melbourne), Singapore, the United States (San Francisco and Boston), China (Beijing and Shanghai).

 

E-Learning

A.S.K. Learning's e-learning centre in San Francisco and Sydney builds imaginative, engaging e-learning for clients around the world, which consistently earns rave reviews from users.

A.S.K. combines instructional-design experience from years in the adult-education business, with the talents of a crack crew of animators, illustrators and interactive designers.

 

E-Learning Philosophy

A.S.K. designs courses that begin by stating the objectives of the lesson - all content, exercises, and quizzes are then aimed at those objectives. Throughout every program, we strive to ensure that the learner understands WIIFM ("what’s in it for me?"). Uncertainty of purpose is one of the primary reasons for attrition and failure in e-learning.

Nearly all e-learning providers claim interactivity, though few deliver on the promise.   A.S.K. builds courses that cannot be passively 'flipped through': the learners are required to stop, think, and respond continuously throughout a course. Students are far more likely to remember information when they are engaged in the process of discovering information, and are challenged to recall it repeatedly. To achieve this, we employ both instructional "pop quizzes", games and exercises (the discovery), and evaluative end-of-lesson quizzes (the reinforcement).

 

What do our clients use e-learning for?

Empower

Empower is a web-based portal for delivering e-learning, communications rewards and more to your end users - whether they be internal employees or external partners.

Our solution is hosted in a secure data centre, and is managed and maintained by A.S.K. Learning.

 

Launch Self Guided Tour

 

Business Skills

Short, punchy lessons on critical day-to-day skills, including customer needs analysis, complaint resolution, financial statement analysis, etc.

Client research shows that user acceptance of A.S.K.'s e-learning is extremely high by industry standards. Has your firm tried e-learning before, and been disappointed by the result? Talk to us - we will change your opinion of online learning!

Ben Reay
(B Comm. journalism)
Ben Reay is the latest addition to the Achievers Group team, providing clients with Copywriting and Publicity services of the highest quality. After graduating with a Bachelor of Communications degree, majoring in Journalism, Ben spent more than 12 months as the Features Editor at 'The Australian Investor', while also working for Fairfax Community Newspapers, and a Sydney based Marketing Company.

It was at the Australian Investor that Ben realised how big the need for professional writers is, particularly within the business world. Every day his desk would be bombarded with poorly written and mistake riddled press releases, and ASX releases that were often just as bad or worse.

In late 2004 Ben established his own business, combining his journalistic expertise with his business insight, to help companies large and small with all their writing needs, from brochures and websites, to press releases and advertisements.

Ben now works with clients in a variety of industries, providing all types of copywriting and marketing advice, to help businesses flourish and prosper.
