Daxue Consulting’s Expertise

Daxue Consulting’s recent engagements have varied in size and complexity from mid-market to large cross-border situations. Our team has advised several businesses to restructure their organizations or adapt their Marketing activation plan and has ensured follow-up plans for the operational setup, including relevant strategic adjustments that created continuous growth of market shares.

Case for Business Turnaround

Our client was a European clothing company looking to boost their sales after several years of slight deceleration. The brand was potentially in need of re-orientating its marketing and branding to evolve its old-fashioned image in order to attract more Chinese millennial consumers. Lacking information and insights on the market situation, the brand contacted Daxue Consulting.

Daxue Consulting designed a 4-step research project to answer the brand’s desire to re-stimulate business turnover

1. Audit of the situation: to identify where the brand had potential improvement and re-orientation need. It included distribution screening (data-collection through Store-Checks in China), brand image and awareness (data-collection through 800 questionnaires administrated in front of stores) and positioning in its competitive frame (through Benchmark).
2. Consumer research: to identify, define and quantify the various strategic segments of consumers where the brand can focus its marketing effort (data-collection through consumer survey and 4 focus groups).
3. Marketing activation portfolio: to provide the client with strategic recommendations to re-orientate their marketing efforts and resources toward the segment of consumers identified as strategic. Our deliverable service includes a portfolio of actions to operate through 3 scenarios – main scenario, most favorable scenario, and market-changing scenario.
4. Monitoring plan: to provide, after the kick-off of the operational setup by the client, a quarterly follow-up to evaluate the branding performance after the first marketing action (data-collection through Focus Groups with each targeted segment) and to collect KPIs as determined at the end of the step 3 in a work document delivered by our team to the client.

This business turnover 4-step process led the client to significantly change the structure of its marketing actions and optimize its existing resources and assets. KPIs showed an increase of nearly 30% of their performances on social media – close to 50% when it comes to their strategic target – and a considerable increase of their sales.
