Next, they held a kickoff session in New York at their service. I invited key members of my marketing section as well as stakeholders from other associate agencies. They took us through separate exercises during the half-day workshop. We talked almost keywords and key provisions for how we draw ourselves and our values.
From there, Tenet Partners wrote brand tone guidelines that delineation how to adjoin the Hiscox US brand platform.
