Regulatory Affairs
The Power of Doing what is Right!
Compliance with the best practices in cGMP & communications facilitate brand excellence
Compliance empowers:
Producing product in the most consistent, accurate, and sanitary manner possible
Production of the safest product with legitimate ingredients
Brand promises that are met and marketing claims that can be supported with evidence
Traditionally compliance and marketing stood in opposition - like a childish game of cops and robbers. Forward thinking companies can leverage compliance to build credibility with the consumer, achieve efficient operations, gain advantage over competitors, all while honorably serving their partners & customers
Familiarity and competence with the relevant regulations, regular participation with trade associations, and establishing and nurturing a deep network of suppliers, analytical laboratories, contract manufacturers, and like minded content experts is essential to support complaint operations
Marketing and Sales Support
Finding your Channel, Strategy, Voice, & Message
The crafting and delivery of impactful messages and finding the audience
Identification of the essential benefits of an ingredient, process, delivery technology, or the functional value of a formulation requires a fundamental understanding of the product and the marketplace in which it lives.
Having a great message and finding the right audience is equally important to having a great product for success. In fact many great products fail, and some flawed products succeed - the difference is the correct message to the right audience.
Successful brands will have the best possible answer to the question and needs that their messaging creates. We facilitate this comprehensive process.
