We thought we&#39;d have a bit of a creative think about the topic that no-one can ignore at the moment. "Oh no, not another gloomy read about inflation, credit crunch and cut-backs..." we hear you say.<p>During a recession, the natural instinct is to be cautious, conservative and cut-back.</p> <p>Fight these instincts!</p> <p>Creative thinking thrives in times of hardship. In the most recent economic downturn in 2001, Apple launched the iPod, proving that innovation creates markets. Past experience also tells us brands who stop marketing during a downturn suffer in the long term, finding it harder to compete when the environment improves.*</p> <p>As with all previous recessions, consumers will continue to spend, but because they&#39;ve got less money they will be more considered and focused in their purchasing.</p> <p>To prosper brands need to work even harder to survive, this is not about who can shout the loudest, but more about intelligently reaching out to the consumer, making your brand compelling, relevant and showing the value of your brand, product and offering over and above the competition.</p> <p>Thankfully, we&#39;ve always been good at making budgets stretch and we know the right areas to focus on. So, we thought we&#39;d start with a few ideas on how to make a little go a long way...</p> <p>Time for a radical change?</p> <p>It&#39;s even more important to stand out in an increasingly saturated and difficult market. Fusty brands that refuse to change or adapt are usually the first to die off in tough times (we&#39;ll miss you, Woolies).</p> <p>Think about how you are perceived alongside your competitors. A re-brand will differentiate you and bring focus to your business proposition.</p> <p>We&#39;ve recently rebranded Walsh and Jenkins</p> <p><img height="200" alt="walsh &amp; jenkins" width="300" border="0" src="/Images/W_J_Identity.jpg" /></p> <p>Get creative<br /> It&#39;s the only way for a brand to survive in an increasingly saturated and difficult market. A strong idea or unusual approach to a common problem, will always achieve better results. Last year we created the graphics for the launch of a giant digital outdoor advertising screen as part of the Liverpool Media wall, this engaged the advertisers and the public in an unusual and relevant way. </p> <p><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=1421777&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" width="400" height="300" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed><br /> <a href="http://vimeo.com/1421777">Liverpool Media Wall Creative</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/un">Un.titled</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>. </p> <p>Integrate<br /> Using different agencies for different aspects of your marketing can increase costs.

By 1985 &ndash; businesses that maintained or increased their ad spend during that recession, sales had risen 256% over those that had cut back on advertising</font></p>
