Simplifying the VECTO brand

vecto devices

A key challenge in marketing VECTO initially was a disconnect between the naming conventions and identities of the various components of the system. The software platform was named Osprey Pro, the device a VECTO 3, and it was marketed by CT LAB, the parent company. Paperboat worked to rationalise bringing the brands under a single trademarked umbrella, and created a cohesive identity to optimise the return on marketing spend.

Focus on brand positioning

VECTO has a wide range of functionality that is as flexible as the individual user’s needs. The difficulty in marketing such as system is twofold: first, one has to create a new category that the power grid consumer does not yet understand or appreciate, secondly, one has to distil these wide ranging benefits into a marketing system that the consumer can appreciate all at once. To achieve this, the allegory of a penknife was created, with each blade of the knife representing a unique facet of VECTOs abilities, and then a communication system built to highlight the areas of highest marketing potential to campaign around.
