Services & capabilities
Quality, Diversity, Innovation
We're committed to diversity and inclusiveness and take inspiration from the arts, fashion and design.
An-yal draws on the diverse backgrounds of our team, providing us with multiple & unique perspectives.
Always moving forwards, seeking new possibilities and different ways of realizing client goals through a mix of new technologies, research and creative thinking.
1. Learn
First, we listen and learn. We listen and ask you questions. We learn about your goals and what it takes to reach them.
And we discover trends and patterns, and look for key insights to help guide our thinking and yours.
2. Plan
Planning turns our research into consumer insights, user objectives and business goals to create a strategic vision for your brand.
We activate this vision by defining key brand features, messaging, media and communication plans. And we align with analytics strategy, objectives and timelines. So you’ll know where we’re going and how we’ll get there.
3. Create
We bring together our creative, social, search, tech, account team and our clients to collaborate, discuss and cross-pollinate.
We create ideas that help integrate a brand across different channels and into peoples’ lives. Ideas that engage, inform and entertain.
4. Execute
Everything comes together. Strategies are implemented, campaigns launched, media bought and content plans created.
A collaborative stage with roles including communication design, user experience, visual design, content and asset development, social media management and more.
5. Measure
We want to make sure that our work works. By determining goals and objectives early on, we define KPIs to measure campaign or platform performance.
With project in progress, we measure, test and compare. With this we can track user behavior to better understand how to create deeper, more relevant experiences.
6. Optimize
We’re always looking for ways to optimize. We use the data and results to improve the final product - it’s continuous progress. So if something’s not performing well, we tweak it.
We want more than just to help you reach goals for sales, market share or ROI, we want to help you exceed them.
