Easy Spirit® Engages Graj + Gustavsen for Brand Strategy and Positioning
New York, NY (PRWEB) August 16, 2017 -- Full-service strategic and creative branding agency Graj + Gustavsen has been engaged by Easy Spirit for a comprehensive positioning initiative following the brand's acquisition by Marc Fisher Footwear (MFF) in January of this year. The multi-faceted project includes defining pathways for growth and a refreshed brand positioning, identity, messaging, and retail and digital presence.
"Our research revealed new insights into Easy Spirit and inspired us to position it as a brand with a purpose: 'Makers Of Easy,' with a platform that engages women who live on-the-go, active lives," says Ashley Graj of Graj + Gustavsen. "The mission of this brand is to make life easier for women and to help keep them moving. We're loving being a part of breathing new life into a great brand."
"We're thrilled to be working with the talented G+G team on this initiative," says Marc Fisher, CEO of MFF. "They are helping us define the DNA of this brand and unlock its potential, and helping fulfill my dream of creating a footwear brand for all women, of all ages and walks of life."
"Along with their branding expertise, I love that G+G brings a passion to this engagement that matches our own passion for this brand," says Susan Itzkowitz, President of MFF.
The first phase of the rebrand was introduced to industry retailers at the New York Shoe Expo on August 1st - 3rd, hosted by the Fashion Footwear Association of New York. Easy Spirit will roll out their new brand marketing and advertising campaign in Spring 2018.
