Summary:
Industry Setting - Meredith is one of the nation’s leading media and marketing corporations (NYSE: MDP). With well-known national media brands such as Better Homes and Gardens, Parents and Family Circle and 12 local network-affiliated television brands, Meredith is well-positioned with a robust marketing presence.
Challenge - While Meredith’s corporate brand and business groups (Publishing and Broadcasting) spoke to legacy distribution channels and competencies, they did not capture 1) the dynamic, multi-platform nature of how today’s Meredith delivers content; 2) the media brands consumers trust every day; or 3) the strength of Meredith’s marketing solutions.
Strategy - While Meredith’s corporate brand and business groups (Publishing and Broadcasting) spoke to legacy distribution channels and competencies, they did not capture 1) the dynamic, multi-platform nature of how today’s Meredith delivers content; 2) the media brands consumers trust every day; or 3) the strength of Meredith’s marketing solutions.
Result - Only a month from the re-launch, the new brand positioning, architecture and identity have been well received by employees and customers. The Meredith brand now reflects the dynamic media and marketing company behind it, and reinforces a fresh, optimistic future for employees, clients and consumers.
