Rebranding Strategy
Consumer Breast Pump
The client was a major breast pump manufacturer who was well known in the medical industry for excellent technology and reliability. However, other more consumer-facing brands had been much more successful in building a consumer presence through marketing and advanced features. Our client was losing market share and wanted to come out with a new breast pump that surpassed the other brand-forward pumps.
​
The client intended to launch this new, high-visibility pump in China, but they had very little customer research on Chinese user needs. We were hired to help with user research, the development of a Visual Brand Language, and Industrial Design.

In-home contextual interviews in Shanghai (Tier 1 city) and Chongqing (Tier 2 city). Online ethnography / diary research using QQ and WeChat.

The User > Buyer > Advocate loop.

Brand positioning outputs were used as inputs to develop the Visual Brand Language. The Visual Brand Language was then used to develop the final design of the new breast pump.
