Two Things | Arc’teryx | No Wasted Days | Guiding the Arc’teryx strategy, investment and operations for their first global, integrated marketing effort. Client // Arc'Teryx Assignment: Brand Strategy · GTM Strategy · Global Campaign · Marketing Systems · Campaign Architecture · Budgeting · Insights & Measurement Fuel to power the brand over $1B and beyond The North Face is legend in the outdoor adventure space. These true stories of Next Gen trail lovers is only the beginning. In the months to come, we'll be exploring activations that actually help people discover their trail. In the meantime, thanks for listening and see you out there. But the approach they pioneered—sponsoring the exploits of extreme outdoor athletes—is no longer as ownable or relevant as it once was. What they need today, is a new chapter in their story. One that is true to their adventurous spirit. But can speak to a broader, wider, more diverse audience. The Challenge In 2022, Arc’teryx was preparing to launch its footwear category—a pivotal moment for any outdoor brand. Despite elite products and a devoted fan base, the brand remained niche. Premium pricing was justified by performance, but not widely understood. The internal marketing team, built around product storytelling, needed a new playbook to grow globally without losing credibility with the insiders who made Arc’teryx iconic. The Insight Consumers didn’t see the difference—“Gore-Tex is Gore-Tex, right?”—revealing a gap between technical superiority and perceived value. We uncovered a deeper truth fueling the brand’s most passionate users: Arc’teryx isn’t just gear. It’s a belief in living with no wasted days. This emotional platform unlocked a broader audience while strengthening the brand’s core. RESULTS What We Did Two Things partnered across strategy, creative, and organizational design to build Arc’teryx’s first global brand and marketing engine. Developed a global brand platform and positioning Built the campaign architecture, messaging system, and channel strategy Designed membership experiences to be realized through app ecosystem and physical stores Designed measurement and analytics frameworks and KPI’s Delivered budgeting strategy and production planning Advised on marketing organization structure and onboarded new hires as the team scaled The work established not just a campaign, but a repeatable, scalable marketing system for ongoing global growth. RESULTS RESULTS No Wasted Days launched in October 2023 and reintroduced Arc’teryx to the world with a message that was both expansive and deeply authentic. Reintroduced Arc’teryx to the world with No Wasted Days (Oct 2023), delivering a message that was expansive, culturally resonant, and unmistakably authentic. Fueled historic growth, helping propel the brand from $941.2M at launch past $1B for the first time , and on to $1.2B+ by the end of 2024. Built the engine for scale, establishing the strategic and operational foundation that continues to power Arc’teryx’s global marketing today.

X? Twitter? The debate rages on. So what does this have to do with brand value and creative strategy? Find out how marketers can use X as a cautionary tale. Brand X's and O's By Paulo Ribeiro X marks the unforced error. And, what can we learn from it? What the hell does this have to do with the Active Lifestyle Business? Nothing. And everything. This spectacular implosion has everyone talking about ‘Brand’ and this gives us an opportunity to break down what a powerful brand is (and isn’t). From Linda Yaccarino, CEO of Twitter (really?!? Does anyone believe Elon’s ceded control of anything?): [Tweet from Linda Yaccarino] Um, ok…. First, let’s establish what we mean when we are talking about ‘brand’ An intentionally strategic focus that guides the services, experiences and messages from a company. The purpose of that strategic focus is to form an emotional connection in a consumer’s mind of what the brand’s values are. People align with brands that share their values. That emotional connection delivers real monetary value to the company. Actions speak louder than words (or images, no matter how well designed) Exhibit A: Many Nike sneakers and smaller brands are made in the same factories using the same materials with often very similar form factors. When the Nike sneaker is sold for $175 and a comparable Saucony sneaker (made in the same factory) goes for $105, that $70 difference is the real value of the Nike brand. The thing that makes the boneheaded Twitter to X shift so damn fascinating is that it was made by an absolutely legendary brand innovator: Elon Musk. Exhibit B: Every single move by brand Tesla, particularly in the early days, served as a master class in how to build a focused brand through consistent ACTIONS instead of through say advertising impression for example. Instead of car lots, Tesla’s were hyped in small ~1,000 sq foot footprints in malls. Forget test driving, many could barely hold a single car you could sit in. This yielded the amazing benefits of saving money on real estate and showing up in a completely differentiated way from the competition. Customers used iPad screens where they virtually designed their car, or signed up for a waitlist. Potential customers logging in from home had all the same tools and soon learned they didn’t even have to go to the mall. The waitlist highlighted scarcity (which is Luxury’s playbook to increase margins). They gave everyone on the waitlist sneak peaks and special content—allowing customers to feel special. And we all heard about it. The waitlist spawned rabid, vocal fans who snowballed the company’s marketing through word of mouth. They were not just buying a car, they bought into a movement. Elon as Founder leaned into even more audacious pursuits like designing the HyperLoop to ferry people between SF and LA in minutes and then gave away the plans (hello, PR mentions). He built a real rocket company, SpaceX, which generates endless PR, this in turn delivers credibility back to Tesla. The Tesla brand now has permission to enter into a range of businesses including some very expensive and technically complex ones such as home and corporate energy storage. All of this because of a singular brand focus: delivering the future of transportation. I could write for a month and not be able to adequately convey how good the bird logo is and how bad the X is. Full disclosure, I’m biased. My friend and former collaborator Martin Grasser Designed it. And Jack Dorsey co-signed with this. Agreed. Exhibit C: Twitter is a communication platform. A tweet is (was?) a short burst of information first 140 characters and over time added a bit of imagery and/or video. But always short, focused, timely communication flying around the internet. With this it's easy to see how that focused brand position provides permission to grow into sharing other types of timely information…or connections…or moving money. All of this focus was encapsulated in that elegant blue bird. Prof G estimates the current value being thrown away to be in the range of $10B (or more). Conversely, what is X? Well, it's everything they say. Right but what is it for? Everything. Ok, cool. When I need everything I’ll make sure to use that. For the next decade or so though, I’ll use products that have PROVEN their focus and expertise to me over time. I’ll make decisions faster where I don’t have to think too hard about their values or what they do well. In the outdoor arena brand identities (name, logo, etc…) like Patagonia and The North Face were intuitively appropriate (good enough for those demanding environments) AND over time they were imbued with meaning and carried that value. Dave Lane has a nice backstory about why the Dead Bird became arc’teryx’s logo. But he’ll be the first to say that they initially chose it as a logo because it was unlike anything in the market. But now… Well the dead bird is completely imbued with the credibility of intensely tested products with high design. Nike was an academic choice (and a bit obscure) choice when it came out, but it is now imbued with decades of performance and empowerment proof. Whereas, On Running’s proof of cushioning as good as running on air is more recent. In all cases these brands have value PRIMARILY because of the actions taken by the companies to prove their credibility in a focused way. And now, well let’s just say none of those organizations are dumb enough to throw that value away. A brand can launch with the advantage of a thoughtfully designed and wordsmithed brand identity and/or campaign (like the blue bird was for Twitter). But regardless of whether a brand got a headstart or not, the real value is created over time by consistency of actions. Brand equity is built and proven by a focused brand strategy. Recently, there hasn’t been any focus from the brand formerly known as Twitter. This will be fun to watch because if we all learn from mistakes, then we stand to learn quite a lot from a dumpster full of them. back to insights → [Retweet from Jack Dorsey, CEO of Square]

Two Things | Mevo Client // Mevo Assignment: Brand Strategy · Product Positioning · Identity & Design System · Digital Experience · Campaign Development · Program Leadership · Partner Orchestration Transforming a livestream camera into a full, scalable platform The North Face is legend in the outdoor adventure space. But the approach they pioneered—sponsoring the exploits of extreme outdoor athletes—is no longer as ownable or relevant as it once was. What they need today, is a new chapter in their story. One that is true to their adventurous spirit. But can speak to a broader, wider, more diverse audience. The Challenge When Mevo launched in 2017, it was a one-product company: Mevo Plus , a compact, high-quality livestreaming camera designed for simplicity and portability. With the development of a second product at a lower price point, Mevo needed to evolve—shifting from a single hardware SKU to a cohesive brand ecosystem spanning products, app experience, e-commerce, and UX. There was no internal marketing organization and no agency roster. Mevo asked us to lead the entire evolution end-to-end—from strategic foundation to full market expression—while assembling and orchestrating the right partners to build the insights, creative, and digital experience capabilities required. The Insight As we partnered with Mococo Muse on primary consumer research, a critical insight emerged: Good / Better was not a strategy. Price hierarchy alone couldn’t differentiate the products or express the larger brand. Consumers had distinct needs and behaviors around livestreaming—ranging from creators seeking flexibility and professional control to everyday users needing an all-in-one, accessible setup. This unlocked a more powerful framework: Mevo Plus → approachable, all-in-one simplicity Mevo Start → professional-grade flexibility within an integrated ecosystem Mevo wasn’t just evolving its offering—it was becoming a platform brand. What We Did Two Things partnered across research, strategy, identity, digital experience, and creative to build Mevo’s first true multi-product brand and GTM engine. We repositioned Mevo from a camera to a brand system. We developed differentiated product identities. We overhauled the digital ecosystem. We introduced Mevo Start to the world. Throughout, we served as the strategic and operational leader—guiding all partners, aligning workstreams, and ensuring the repositioning carried through every touchpoint. RESULTS The launch marked Mevo’s transformation from a single hardware device into a scalable brand ecosystem—with measurable business momentum. Commercial Impact Following the Mevo Start launch—and accelerated by the rise in remote livestreaming during the pandemic—demand grew “tenfold,” as stated by CEO and Founder Max Hoat.
 Mevo’s success was not momentary; it demonstrated meaningful traction: 90,000+ Reintroduced Arc’teryx to the world with No Wasted Days (Oct 2023), delivering a message that was expansive, culturally resonant, and unmistakably authentic. $5.9M Fueled historic growth, helping propel the brand from $941.2M at launch past $1B for the first time , and on to $1.2B+ by the end of 2024. 30,000+ Built the engine for scale, establishing the strategic and operational foundation that continues to power Arc’teryx’s global marketing today.

Two Things | Pernod Ricard Evolving How a Spirits Brand Goes to Market Client // Pernod Ricard New Brand Ventures, Plymouth Gin Assignment: Innovation Strategy · Experience Design · Digital Experience · Innovation Program Development · Prototyping & App Design The Challenge Pernod Ricard manages a vast portfolio of beloved spirits brands—but faces a fundamental industry constraint: alcohol cannot be sold direct-to-consumer, therefore brands don’t own the customer relationship. In this environment, marketing has historically meant one thing: traditional brand advertising, with limited avenues for deeper engagement. The New Brand Ventures team came to us with a pivotal question: How can these brands create direct, meaningful consumer connections in a space where DTC is off the table? The re-launch of Plymouth Gin, a 300-year-old heritage brand, raised the stakes even further. This wasn’t just about new tactics—it was about redefining what consumer engagement could look like for an entire category. The Insight Consumers were increasingly eager to explore, learn, and connect—especially in premium spirits. In 2019, curiosity around the category was rising and heritage brands were gaining traction. Through consumer research we uncovered an opportunity hiding in plain sight: Even without DTC, people crave authentic moments of connection—with brands, with stories, and with each other. For Plymouth Gin specifically, relevance wasn’t the problem, access was. The brand needed modern pathways for people to participate in its world—without violating regulatory constraints. What We Did Two Things partnered with New Brand Ventures to build an innovation program that balanced experimentation with business rigor. We developed a series of test-and-learn initiatives designed to rapidly validate new approaches to consumer engagement across the spirits portfolio. We identified cultural territories where Plymouth could authentically show up: Spaces where consumers naturally gather to share stories, discover new experiences, and connect with like-minded people. We created and prototyped concepts ready for market: From lightweight digital touchpoints to more immersive AR and VR experiences—each designed to foster participation, not just passive awareness. We built a measurement framework to compare ROI: A standardized model that tracked how these experiments performed relative to traditional marketing, enabling NBV to evaluate impact with clarity. What emerged surprised even the internal team: Two SMS-based games dramatically outperformed more complex initiatives, driving not just list growth but genuine human connection—through shared experiences, storytelling, and real-world interaction. Across the program, emerging technology was harnessed not as novelty, but as a way to deepen consumer value and expand what engagement can look like in a regulated category. The Result The work reframed how Pernod Ricard’s teams think about consumer connection—proving that meaningful engagement is possible even without DTC. Key outcomes included: A repeatable test-and-learn model for modern consumer engagement Validated concepts that outperformed traditional marketing benchmarks A measurement system enabling cross-initiative comparison and portfolio learning Clear demonstration that lightweight, human-centered experiences can drive disproportionate impact This work laid the foundation for a more modern, participatory relationship with consumers across the Pernod Ricard portfolio.

We've focused our agency to deliver fresh, creative strategy and effective go-to-market plans for the outdoors and active lifestyle markets. Two Things is Doubling Down By Paulo Ribeiro Our approach to brand transformation has worked in multiple categories but, we are choosing to focus primarily on the active lifestyle space and audience. Two Things Inc started up in 2018. The agency was founded as a vehicle to combine a deep strategy process with a creative culture to help clients evolve how they go to market. We’ve operated as a creative consultancy with a goal of breaking down the wall between product experience and marketing experience. Along the way we’ve worked with clients in the entertainment, sports, outdoor, transportation, gaming, food, and retail industries. We’ve been trusted to develop strategies to transform how those brands go to market. To bring those strategies to life we’ve helped our clients reimagine advertising campaigns, mobile UX, created new to the world 3D creation tools, conversational interfaces, tik-tok campaigns, reimagined media plans, built websites and designed research methodologies to measure effectiveness. In two instances we’ve breathed life into entirely new businesses. We are proud of the work we’ve created together with our clients. We’ve learned and grown with each engagement. But TBH, too often we’ve had to learn on the job. There is a significant difference between the assignments we’ve explored with our clients and the assignments where our expertise led the way. Going forward, we are going to focus all of our energy on what we know inside and out. 1. We are experts at designing new ways for our clients to Go To Market. We shine when helping our clients evolve how they Go To Market whether the need is driven by launching a new product, a desire to connect with new audiences or markets, or for any reason that requires building new creative muscles. We are at our best when designing the strategy and creative concepts to evolve how a brand is experienced. We think hard about the business context, and also how the work will be made. We develop creative ideas to stand out from the noise in terms of their format AND their message. The fact that we consider the execution in our strategy work does NOT mean we need to be the ones making all the work. In many cases there are teams that are better at the craft of producing work (even if our clients are more comfortable working with us). So we are going to focus our attention on the moment of change and the systems to bring that work to life over time. 2. We are creative people which means we can get distracted or curious about many different categories, but expertise comes from deep experience. We’ve had the honor of working with brands like The North Face, arc’teryx, Converse, Timberland, Visit Sun Valley, Nike and others on some of their most mission critical projects. This has given us depth of experience with the active lifestyle consumer that they target. So we are choosing to focus our work in the active lifestyle category. Going forward Brand Transformation for Active Lifestyle Brands will be the agency's focus. This is a mission for us. Too many brands in this space have marketing that is stuck in the past. Sure, there are players like Nike that are constantly re-writing the brand playbook. But brand’s that are innovating in this space are the exception, not the rule. So much of the work is sleepy and backward looking, reinforcing historical brand equity but not doing a great job of reaching out to wider audiences. This may not be a popular opinion but it's true. It is a shame because us humans are at our best when we are connecting with other humans IRL. We need to shake up the category that is all about movement, outdoors and human connection. We’ll use all the modern tools of creativity to make this happen. Stay tuned for more from insights@twothings.co . back to insights →

Why it never works to build a marketing strategy and get other departments to buy-in later. You need to include everyone for exceptional work. Include the Critics, Naysayers and Roadblocks in the Process By Paulo Ribeiro Why it never works to build a marketing strategy and get other departments to buy-in later. We often get approached by an executive or department who wants to use our strategic expertise as leverage to convince another department to change how they Go To Market. The conversation will start with a breakdown of the business opportunity which is where things should start. But eventually the real friction will become clear. There is another department or leader who has different priorities or doesn’t see things the same way. Sometimes we’ll hear about it during the onboarding conversations or discovery but by the time we get to stakeholder conversations it will become clear that there isn’t internal alignment. To be clear, a lack of alignment by itself isn’t necessarily a problem. If managed productively it can be a strength in that different leaders have access to different data and priorities which can become the roots of a powerful new strategy. We absolutely NEED those tensions to get to a new strategy. But that is a different post. This post is about the doomed to fail assumption that we can develop the strategy in a silo and it is going to be so damn smart that the rest of the company will get onboard. We’ll unfurl the deck and they’ll follow the Piper because of the sheer genius of the ideas. They’ll see how thorough our collective work is and that will drive alignment and the company can move forward. Cue the end credits. That never works. back to insights → This assumption is almost always well intentioned. It is also almost always wrong. It is wrong because it assumes that what needs to happen is to convince another leader or department. A great brand strategy works across departments which means it needs to be aware of the challenges facing each department. I’m not writing this post to talk about how to make the work a treaty between departments. I’m writing this to dispel the idea that the marketing team, or product team or design leadership alone can figure out a new way forward and then deliver it to the other departments needed to implement it. Great strategy isn’t a compromise. Great strategy is aware of each of the stakeholders needs and finds a solution that will benefit the whole company because it solves problems in the order that they need to be solved. Often that means that one department’s priorities will need to wait in order for a more acute problem to be solved. That is how great teams function and you don’t get this kind of buy-in without including everyone with a stake in the decision. A few rules we operate by: A representative from each department that is critical to bringing a solution to life needs to be involved at each milestone. Disagreements need to be surfaced with all the relevant context. Lean into the uncomfortable because you might learn something. Don’t avoid it. We don’t move forward until there is commitment cross-functionally. BTW, disagreement is fine. But when a decision is made to proceed there needs to be universal commitment. Change in how a company Goes to Market requires cross-functional buy-in. Not after the ideas have been developed, but early.

Two Things | Visit Sun Valley | Stay Sunny | Evolving an organization from brand awareness to lifecycle marketing. Discover how we shaped tourism and engagement. Client // Visit Sun Valley Assignment: Brand Strategy · Board Advisory · Go-To-Market Definition · Campaign Production & Staffing · Measurement Strategy & Metrics Evolving a destination brand to meet the demands of a new era The Challenge Sun Valley, Idaho is one of the most breathtaking places in the world—but for decades, it flew under the radar. Then the pandemic hit. Almost overnight, the quiet mountain town became a magnet for travelers, second-home seekers, and remote workers. Tourism surged far faster than infrastructure, local businesses, or municipal systems could keep pace. The Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) faced a fundamental identity crisis. Their long-standing mission of awareness and demand generation was suddenly at odds with the community’s reality. They needed a new mandate—one focused on balance, sustainability, visitor education, and long-term value, not simply volume. We started with a simple call-to-action (STAY SUNNY) that reflected the optimistic spirit of the Valley. But we also needed a voice that, like the locals, felt honest and to the point. Conceptually, we thought of it as a secret society that anyone could be a part of (assuming they were kind and respectful). The Insight Sun Valley didn’t just need more visitors; it needed the right visitors—those who would respect the community, stay longer, return often, and contribute meaningfully to the local economy. This required a shift from traditional tourism marketing to lifecycle marketing: engaging audiences before, during, and after their visit, aligning resident and visitor needs, and creating a brand voice that could flex between demand generation and destination management. But the approach they pioneered—sponsoring the exploits of extreme outdoor athletes—is no longer as own-able or relevant as it once was. RESULTS RESULTS While the work was less about immediate performance metrics and more about long-term sustainability, the results were transformative: 360° Sun Valley’s DMO evolved from a traditional tourism bureau into a 360° destination management and marketing organization Stakeholders across municipalities, businesses, and the state aligned under a shared mission and shared language The new measurement model gave leaders unprecedented clarity into value, cost, and impact The organization gained the systems, partners, and strategic guidance necessary to adapt in real time to fluctuating tourism patterns While the work was less about immediate performance metrics and more about long-term sustainability, the results were transformative: 360° Sun Valley’s DMO evolved from a traditional tourism bureau into a 360° destination management and marketing organization Stakeholders across municipalities, businesses, and the state aligned under a shared mission and shared language The new measurement model gave leaders unprecedented clarity into value, cost, and impact The organization gained the systems, partners, and strategic guidance necessary to adapt in real time to fluctuating tourism patterns What We Did Two Things partnered with the DMO’s Board of Directors, Executive Team, and regional stakeholders to redefine the purpose, structure, and strategy of the organization. 1. Reframed the Mission & Go-To-Market Strategy Shifted the DMO from demand-only marketing to a holistic lifecycle model Engaged five municipalities, the State of Idaho, Sun Valley Resort, and local businesses to align on a unified strategy Built a flexible go-to-market approach capable of toggling between destination management and demand generation based on seasonal and economic needs 2. Created a New Brand Platform We developed Stay Sunny —a brand voice, mobile applications and activation strategy that worked in two directions: Locally: addressing pain points, educating visitors, and supporting community needs Externally: driving awareness and demand when appropriate 3. Designed the Operating System Behind the Brand Built a new roster of creative and production partners to execute ongoing campaigns Developed a CAC/LTV model to quantify the full value of visitors, improve budgeting, and increase transparency with stakeholders Established measurement systems and reporting frameworks to continually optimize marketing investment 4. Provided Ongoing Strategic Advisory As Sun Valley navigated rapid and ongoing change, we advised the Board and leadership to continually refine tactics, rebalance priorities, and evolve the campaign as real-world conditions shifted Each creative piece was informed by what we call a pain point, i.e., specific time or place where tourists were being insufferable. We wrote lines (or messages) encouraging them to stop. But took care not to castigate them. That just felt mean. Humor, we learned, was the most effective way of connecting with others (whether they're locals or not). Around town our voice shifted depending on where you were and what offense (if any) was being committed. So, for example, as people entered town, we welcomed them with a wave and a smile. Alternatively, when people were being jerks on the bike trail, we gave them the business. To date, virtually every piece of communication has been delivered through non-traditional media, i.e., chalked sidewalks, construction site plywood, murals, bumper stickers, viewfinders. The medium truly has been the message. The money saved from not doing a traditional media buy has freed us up to do more local collabs and to execute all production locally. Every execution supports the local community in some way.
