                Brand equity and internal constraints
                Financial goals/hurtles 


      Then defines the consumer/customer target ... segments (uses existing ones if available)
         What consumers/customers have a  clear channel voice with respect to the opportunity space?

     Then calls for an understanding of consumer need structure ... need states (uses existing ones if available)
          What are the relevant Need States - what opportunities are there to fulfill unmet consumer needs?

Deeply introspective qualitative exploration

             Mind Genomics model building - Scientifically optimization modeling

  
      Result – A comprehensive  messaging model          
           Provides a full set of metrics for all messaging elements
           Identifies the messaging element(s) that have the largest impact by target and across targets.
