Online Presence

• Good search engine optimisation is essential for consumers to be able to find and interact with the brand online. • Currently Seventeen’s SEO is low due to other brands having the same name and not having many platforms. • The platforms they have don’t stand out or promote the brand.

Packaging

• As well as having 7 mini rebrands, each product collection has had different branding using a range of colours. • The inconsistent branding and colour scheme makes the stands look messy and fails to differentiate the brand within the store.

Equation SE ENTEEN • The main challenge of the rebrand will be to change the brands current perceptions. Consumer Opinnion

• Current thoughts on Seventeen are very different to the aim for 2015. • This is restricting them from reaching their desired target market.

• The re-brand will move Seventeen to having a loud and unique personality, whilst maintaining their low price point. • Where Seventeen will be repositioned there is other brands, however the majority of these aim for a younger consumer.

• For a successful re-brand Seventeen can look to its competitors for successful strategies. • These three competitors have a similar target market or price point and have demonstrated a successful outcome of one of Seventeen’s future re-brand challenges.

Visual taste The participants of the study showed different visual taste. This reflects the wide variety of styles within the age range. 1. Which colour palette is your favourite for a makeup brand? 2. Which advertisment appeals more to you? 3. Which model would you most like to represent your favourite makeup brand?

It is important to be aware of what the Seventeen consumer likes but understand that the branding cannot be everyones personal choice. Seventeen should choose branding which is inclusive to the wide variety of consumer and reflects the brand personality.

4. Which font appeals to you most for a makeup brand?

Colour- Different colours were selected but some stated that it

was a personal choice.

Advertisement- The participants were undecided on this

choice but most of them opted for the a natural and srong style.

Model- There was not a mutal choice on models with all the

participants opting for very different styles.

Font- The majoiry opted for a hand drawn style font. Fig. 30-33 Visual Taste Focus Group (2013) Appendix 8 p77

Cosmetic trends Focus “The material world comes into sharp focus - emotion, contemplation and local environmets are key.”

Colour

The colour trends for 2015 are all based on a neutral earthy greens and greys. The pallets are then intensified with pops of pigmented coral and berry tones.

“Fashion will grow a little tired of all the brightness—but not the intensity.” (Anderson 2013)

Product

2015 will see products modernised through innovations challenging their limits. Products will become more personal achieving results that the consumer desires rather than being sold a myth.

History 2.0 “We reconsider the past, creating new products for imagined future worlds that once seemed possible.”

‘Personalisation is at the heart of the Right for Me sub-trend, with products such as custom-blend make-up.” (Chipalkatti 2013)

Theme Bio- Dynamic “Form, structures and systems are revolutionised by looking at new discoveries in microscopic life forms.” Quotes & Fig 36-38 WGSN (2013)

41

The trends will incorporate a sense of authenticity through the understanding of nature. A fresh and modern look will be defined through the re-interpretation of nostalgia and nature.

Packaging Trends Optical Lines

• Seventeen have recently experimented with hand draw elements so this trend would allow them to extend this. • The trends will allow Seventeen to rebrand with a fresh look, creating a style which will define them from their competitors.

Handcrafted Hand Painted The basis of design for 2015 is hand drawn elements. Created through watery colour washes or bold strokes they each show a sense of nostalgia and authenticity. The trend also experiments with design on more traditional materials of glass and card. It also shows gift style outer boxes and bags to give a high quality feel. Used in packaging this gives products a more personal and tactile feel and allows for the use of a fresh colour scheme.

Illustration

• This branding idea has formed from the hand painted design trend for 2015. • Opting for illustration as the main design element will allow for a strong personality to be created. • Illustration is also a solution to the problem on finding suitable models that represent the brand and the wide target audience. • Illustration over photography would allow the brand to be inclusive to all women and focus their attention on the product rather than the model.

Consumer Opinion: “It looks really sophisticated.” “It looks really different to what’s already out there.” “It’s a nice approach but it would need to be done so that it doesn’t look too girly. Its needs to look sophisticated.” Appendix 9 p79

Name

Change

The number can be used as more of a logo than a name.

SE ENTEEN

The “teen” stands out more when spelt out.

‘It’s the appropriateness of the name....Nothing remains the same for very long. Times change. Products become obsolete. Markets come and go. And mergers are often necessary. So the time comes when a company must change it’s name.’ (Trout, Ries. 2000)

53

• Seventeen should look at adding to or adapting the name to create something new with different meanings.

Keep

Change

• Keeping the name the same would retain the brands credibility and heritage. • It would make changing opinions of the brand more difficult as it would keep the brands current perceptions of representing seventeen as an age. • The most recent change to a written word is not consistent across branding and is used by other brands.

• If the name was changed completely Seventeen would lose all credibility but be able to create new consumer perceptions. • Adding to the name would change the meaning, showing the change in direction, whilst keeping its presence. • Keeping the name but changing the meaning would be difficult as it already has strong connotations of youth.

Online presence It is key to have a broad range of platforms in order to reach consumers on lots of levels. All content must reflect the same brand voice but each platform is best used with a different focus.

• Effective use of social media needs to be used to replace the interaction and marketing restiricted on their boots page.

Collaborating with beauty bloggers gives an authentic consumer opinion of the brand. Having a blogger who reflects the consumer is key. It is also a benefit if they are on a range of platforms to share the content.

Story Telling “Stories act like cultural DNA. tiny packets of information that build tribes and societies.” (Sachs 2013)

“People buy into stories not products.”

• For the rebrand to be successful a story must be constructed around the brand outlining their new focus and personality. •The brands story will help consumers connect emotionally and become loyal. • The brand story must be reflective in everything they do. •When the consumer connects to a story shown in marketing they will remember it and show it to others.
