routine life and enjoy the activity of fantasizing
about alternative identities, lives, or positions

“A lot of times, people
don’t know what they
want until you show it
to them…”
Steve Jobs

The magic formula
Aha!x €It‟s me
Not immediately apparent
You will know it when you see it
Brings to the surface what was subconsiously there
Surprising and fresh

The magic formula
Aha!x €It‟s me
You‟re right –I recognise this
You understand me (better than myself)

The magic formula
Aha!x €It‟s me

pressure, consumers want nights out that offer
the promise that the unexpected can happen”

Mars I Whiskas
“If you could give your cat US$10 and send him off to the
grocery store to buy cat food, what would he bring home?
The answer (albeit theoretically) is: Live meat!”

Volkswagen I Beetle
“It wasn't just the need for a smaller car -there was a sizable
group of people who needed to be different and didn't express
themselves based on the size of their car”

P&G I Pampers
“Babies with healthy, dry skin are happier....and so better able
to play, learn and develop. The finding that babies are happier
when they have healthy skin rather than nappy rash was not
that new. The trick was uncovering the deeper emotional
significance.”

It all starts with what we see
The power is in the mix
It all starts with what we see
Insights can be found if we accept that there is no “we” versus “them”

Will people get it?
Does it touch them?
Is it something new?
Is it simple enough?
Can you support it?
Will it effect change?

Write it on a blank sheet of paper,
with no supporting words
Is it still interesting?

Over the course of 3 weeks, the 16 varieties of
lettuce in McDonald’s salads were planted and
grown on a soil-based billboard

“[…] the language you use is not arbitrary and
inconsequential; for an insight to have real potency,
the languagein which it is couched is at least as
important as the inner truth itself. For an insight to
have real potency, literal accuracy is less important
than its power to evoke.”
Bullmore 2005, WPP

3 online discussion groups with each a different focus
GROUP 1
EXPLORE
First online discussion group focuses on
exploration of the insight in different
directions. The outcome is a list of
possibilities to reword the insight.
GROUP 3
CONFIRM
In the final group, the insight holding most
potential is elaborated upon. The key objective
is the validate the power of the insight as
formulated based on the 2 previous sessions.
GROUP 2
FINETUNE
Based on the first group and what is legally
possible in terms of formulation of the insight,
a limited set of insights is tested more in-
depth.

Unilever I Marmite
Turning a problem
into an opportunity

PROBLEM VERY FEW PEOPLE EAT MARMITE, YET THE PEOPLE WHO
DO ABSOLUTELY ADORE IT.
WHY? BECAUSE THOSE WHO DON’T EAT IT, HATE IT.
WHY? BECAUSE MARMITE EATERS ARE PERCEIVED TO BE
RARE AND SLIGHTLY ECCENTRIC (AND ARE LIKELY TO BE
CHILDREN).
WHY? BECAUSE THE PRODUCT HAS A VERY UNIQUE
POLARISING TASTE.
INSIGHT MARMITE EATERS NEED TO BE GIVEN THE CONFIDENCE
TO DECLARE THEIR LOVE FOR THE PRODUCT IN PUBLIC

What did we learn from Columbo?
Get closer & connect
Make connections between seemingly unrelated
facts and observations
Never overlook “unimportant” details
Always dig deeper –“Just one more question”
Immerse yourself in alternative roles
Use your own personal experience
Invest in validating & refining your insight
