OOMPH! Wellness

We were employed by Oomph! Wellness, leading providers of wellbeing services to the care sector, at a time of significant organisational change.  They were looking to re-launch their category leading On Demand service, as well as seeking new investors.

We helped to launch a brand overhaul, which included:

  • a redefined brand model

  • new look and feel and brand guidelines

  • integration with the commercial proposition

  • a promotional brand video

  • a new main website

  • a microsite to deal specifically with the new product roll out to existing customers

“We were looking to relaunch our brand and our primary product Oomph! On Demand. Brand Cornac became our in-house marketing function to help us execute the task. Contracting them allowed us access to their expertise and experience across a variety of areas. They quickly understood us and adapted to our challenges, to help with a very successful re-launch of our product and brand. Brand Cornac are very easy to work and quickly became valued and well-liked members of the Oomph! team.” 

Ben Allen, Founder and CEO

WHAT WE DID

Brand Model

Using our brand model framework – Essence, Positioning, Promise, Values, Tone of Voice – we were able to articulate Oomph!’s belief of a Full Life For Life, giving them a structure to implement throughout the organisation.

Website

We created a new company website to create a clear understanding of the two sides of the Oomph! business, allowing them to structure and showcase their product portfolio in a simple, easy to use way. The new look and feel was used to bring an updated freshness to support their dynamic new products.

We also created a microsite for the launch of the new Oomph! On Demand product, providing existing customers with a series of ‘How to’ videos, FAQ’s and live customer support.

Videos

We created a brand showcase video to be used across a variety of outlets and mediums to explain and promote the Oomph! brand and products. We also created 6 instructional ‘How to’ videos with a combination animation and talking heads.

Marketing, Content and Event Strategies

We devised marketing, content and event strategies designed to support the commercial function and to drive sentiment and awareness of Oomph! as the gold standard in the sector.

PR, Copywriting, Marketing Services

We provided day to day marketing support across a range of functions to support the internal departments at Oomph!, their existing customers and to reinforce and amplify the core messages from the brand model.

Sale Sharks

We worked closely with Sale Sharks at a pivotal moment for the club. The headline was that they needed to generate more revenue and create a larger fanbase to make them more sustainable.

WHAT WE DID

Collaborating with the CEO, marketing and commercial teams we identified key projects and tasks to complete:

Identify the purpose and direction of the club

  • In the crowded North-West sports market, it was important for the Sharks to understand where they fit in and consequently how they compete for fans and sponsors

Construct a brand model for Sale Sharks

  • Give them the basis of identity and language they could use consistently throughout all communication – from player signings to fan promotions; sponsor engagement to social media

This resulted in the hugely successful ‘Fabric of the North’ and ‘Northen Rugby Matters’ positioning that has connected with the region

Increase matchday ticket sales

  • The overwhelming response to the club in the region was indifference, so the core of this was giving fans a reason to care about the club – why they should give up time and money to attend matches

  • Connecting the club to the region and the identity that mattered to fans was central to this

Within two seasons matchday attendance had more than doubled

Increase sponsorship revenue

  • As with fans, it was crucial to create a sales proposition that would resonate with sponsors. It needed to go beyond assets and the values of rugby

Within two seasons revenue rose by 212%

Brand Cornac brings a wealth of experience that showed a deep authentic care about the business, they listen and deliver in equal measure which combned for great results
