We are Stream

We help businesses engage their audiences and tell their story more effectively in times of growth or change. Check out our case studies for more information on how we helped our clients 

WHAT WE DO

As a team of senior communications professionals, we offer a fresh perspective and an objective view of our clients’ business needs. Our primary aim is to help organisations get the foundations of branding, marketing and communications right in order to tell a compelling business story.

Branding: Branding is the unique set of reasons why a customer would seek you out or an employee might want to work for you rather than go to a competitor. Whether it is creating a new brand or refreshing an existing one, we take a traditional strategic approach. We make sure we understand the current internal and external perception, the market place and the desired perception from the start.

  • Insightful customer, company and market place research
  • Interactive analysis and feedback
  • Define a compelling brand story plus key messages
  • Identify the business position
  • Craft an engaging identity that works for the whole business
  • Ensure brand consistency across all touch points
  • Create templates and guidelines
  • Engage and educate employees

Marketing: By ‘marketing’, we mean identifying and engaging audiences with a multi-channel strategy tailored to their preferences and behaviours. This can be anything from a great social media campaign to hosting an international conference. Through our own experience, skills and a suite of partner agencies, we have the knowledge, creativity and capabilities to plan, create and execute engaging and effective marketing campaigns.

  • Establish success criteria
  • Insightful audience research
  • Creative concept development
  • Identify the appropriate channels
  • Craft an engaging campaign
  • Multi-channel roll-out
  • Monitor and adjust

Communications: Unlike many marketing agencies, Stream’s communication specialists have a PR background and a strong belief in the power of content. There is little point in being omnipresent across every channel if your content is poor or the channel is not right for your audience. We believe that your content should not only tell or sell, but is also communicated in a way that means your target audience will want to hear it, act on it and share it.

  • Establish success criteria
  • Insightful audience research
  • Define an actionable content strategy
  • Identify the appropriate channels
  • Craft engaging content
  • Distribute, monitor and adjust 
  • Monitor and adjust

Merging two businesses might make sense on the balance sheet. However, bringing together two cultures and personalities requires a lot of planning and communication.

Change market perception 

You have a great business but for some reason people just don’t see it the same way as you? You are not alone. The perception of a business can have a bigger impact on its growth than the products or services it sells. If your offer is good and your customer service spot on, it is just a matter of making sure that everyone knows about it. The best way to do this is to tell the brand story to the right people, in the right places.

  • Review the company positioning and targert audience

  • Tweak the business identity
  • Launch the brand externally and internally
