Your next brilliant move is in there somewhere. Unfortunately, it’s currently buried underneath twelve other ideas, three Google Docs, other people’s opinions and that business model you decided you should have two years ago.


At this point, your concept notes are closer to winning a Pulitzer than becoming an actual business.


And the funny thing is: you could spend ANOTHER six months adjusting it. Know why?


You’re not scared of putting it out there.

You just don't want to put out a mediocre version of a really good idea.


Fair enough, so let’s get together for an hour. We’ll find the idea worth building and what to build, sell and say around it.

JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE IDEAS.

JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE IDEAS.

Three ideas that started somewhere much less clear.

these lovebirds wanted to build something together

Damiët and Gerrit were both coaches, but in completely different fields. They knew they wanted to start a business together. They just had no idea what that business should be.

ONS PACT

ONS PACT

I found the idea connecting them: their shared vision on relationships. We turned that into Ons Pact: a new business, positioning and story built around helping people create stronger relationships.

she needed to launch her styling business

Debbie is a stylist. She needed an idea to launch her business in a way that would actually make people pay attention.

A FASHION SHOW. FOR ENTREPRENEURS.

A FASHION SHOW. FOR ENTREPRENEURS.

Instead of another launch campaign, I came up with a fashion show built specifically around entrepreneurs. The launch became an event people could experience, talk about and remember.

sometimes the campaign is the idea

they already had the thinking

Anouk and Julian had developed a distinct way of looking at customer journeys. The thinking was there. It just didn’t have a name or a story yet.

JOURNEY ARCHITECTURE.

JOURNEY ARCHITECTURE.

I recognised the bigger idea underneath their work and turned it into Journey Architecture: a named philosophy and story they could position, explain and build on.

once you can name it, you can build on it

a note from a fellow perfectionist

THE ANTIDOTE TO PERFECTIONISM IS A DEADLINE.

THE ANTIDOTE TO PERFECTIONISM IS A DEADLINE.

Brands that feel considered. Businesses that are built with care. I don’t believe in throwing something half-baked into the world and calling it courage. But after 10+ years of working with 100+ entrepreneurs and brands, I’ve learned something else too:

YOU CANNOT THINK YOUR WAY TO PERFECT.

At some point, another week of tweaking isn’t making the idea better. It’s just keeping it safely inside your head. The business needs to make sense. The story needs to be sharp. The launch needs to be good.
