Repositioning a brand for the future – Australia Maths Trust

2019

Australian Maths Trust

How might we reposition ourselves to improve our connection to our audience?

The Australian Maths Trust (AMT) is a renowned organisation in Australia dedicated to promoting mathematics education and fostering mathematical talent among students. It conducts a range of mathematics competitions, enrichment programs, and educational initiatives to inspire and challenge students, encouraging their passion for mathematics and problem-solving skills. AMT plays a crucial role in advancing mathematical education and excellence in Australia.

AMT recognised the need to reposition itself to remain relevant to its stakeholders in an evolving landscape. To achieve this transformation, AMT engaged rowdy, seeking to align its mission and offerings with the changing needs and expectations of its diverse stakeholders.

The challenge lay in redefining AMT’s identity and purpose to ensure its continued relevance. This required a comprehensive approach that encompassed market research, strategy development, journey mapping, customer personas, corporate narrative, rebranding, collateral design, website redesign, CRM integration, and forms development.

Our comprehensive approach transformed AMT, making it more relevant and adaptive to the evolving needs of its stakeholders. This initiative added significant value by ensuring alignment with stakeholder expectations, fostering a compelling narrative, and enhancing the organisation’s digital presence and overall image.

We took a methodical and staged approach to work through the project:

  • Market research
    We began by conducting in-depth market research to gain insights into the evolving landscape and the needs of AMT’s stakeholders.
  • Strategy development
    Our approach involved strategy development that included journey mapping and the creation of customer personas. This allowed us to understand stakeholder journeys and tailor solutions to their unique needs.
  • Corporate narrative
    We crafted a compelling corporate narrative that communicated AMT’s vision, mission, and values in a way that resonated with stakeholders and conveyed the organisation’s commitment to its purpose.
  • Rebranding
    We undertook a rebranding effort, redefining AMT’s visual identity to align with its new narrative and future-focused objectives.
  • Collateral design
    Our team designed collateral materials that reflected the new brand, ensuring consistency and professionalism in all communications.
  • Website redesign
    We completely redesigned AMT’s website, incorporating modern design principles, user-friendly navigation, and responsive functionality. CRM integration and user-friendly forms were implemented to streamline stakeholder interactions.

 

Greater value was achieved by:

 

  • Relevance
    The repositioning efforts ensured that AMT remained relevant to its stakeholders, adapting to their evolving needs and expectations.
  • Understanding stakeholders
    Journey mapping and customer personas provided a deep understanding of stakeholder journeys, allowing for targeted and personalised engagement.
  • Compelling narrative
    The corporate narrative effectively communicated AMT’s mission and values, fostering a strong sense of purpose among stakeholders.
  • Refreshed brand
    The rebranding initiative gave AMT a fresh and contemporary identity, reflecting its commitment to the future.
  • Enhanced digital presence
    The website redesign, CRM integration, and user-friendly forms enhanced stakeholder engagement and streamlined interactions.
