There\u2019s an old saying that \u201call things equal, you want to do business with your friends\u201d. But the real truth is that all things being unequal, you still want to do business with your friends. The people behind the business relationship is where the actual value, loyalty, and affinities lie, even between organizations. People will work harder, listen better and collaborate deeper with people they believe in, trust, and of course \u2013 actually like.<\/p>\n
We recently ran across this truth when partnering with Humanity Innovation Labs, a leading wearables design research firm, run by one of the earliest experts in the field: Stephanie Battista.<\/p>\n
XO Partnered with Humanity Innovation Labs to help clarify their unique value and experience to the market, through powerful new brand messaging. They have an amazing portfolio of innovative work, for some of the most demanding and forward looking organizations\u2014such as US Government Agencies, Large OEM + ODM Tech companies specializing in Human Performance and IoT.<\/p>\n
The task was simple, but difficult. How can you create clear brand language for a category that few people really understand? By making the process, services and offering relate back to how Stephanie and her team really think about the work. They have a future vision that you believe in when you meet them. The messaging has to communicate that idealism and direction from the outset.<\/p>\n

Strong brand communication rarely means you have to invent anything. Rather, it\u2019s about finding what is true about the organization, and expressing it in a compelling way. For Humanity Innovation Labs, that meant narrowing in on their unique approach of combing physiology and psychology, to arrive at solutions that truly put the Human First.<\/p>\n
The sentiment of putting people first is a business truism, but often under delivers. But not here. The human experience is the core of the Humanity Innovation Labs process, and the passion of its people. This allowed us to frame each messaging point as an aspirational call to what we can all become, with a little help from technology and innovation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
