| dc.description.abstract | In the creative universe, the formalization of precise processes for the advancement of designs for products, services, and experiences, has been seen in many cases undervalued, mainly because aforetime, design was found as an exclusive and almost introspective ingenious moment of geniuses, along with the fear of considering design as a standardized process spread for many years. Furthermore, a study carried out by C4E Consulting4 compiled in a press release from marketingdirecto.com, highlights that “the fear of «standardizing» creativity constitutes one of the most frequent barriers to training within advertising agencies” (MD, 2005).
The exercise of designing can be a creative work of both individual and group character, the latter being the most implemented in agencies or companies dedicated to this. Alejandro Masferrer5 affirms that “the creative process can be an abstract concept causing uncertainty and confusion if it is left undefined. When you co-create as a team, this can result in a mismatch of objectives and difficulty in generating quality ideas” (Masferrer, 2019).
With this, the thesis aims to validate those creative processes can be standardized in Totemu, based on methodologies aligned to the business model for design and Branding companies. This agency does not have a consolidated business structure that allows it to grow and strengthen profitably in the long term, for which, through this research, it seeks to adjust its business model, comparatively reviewing agencies in the same sector that are references to replicate and/or validate the processes and structures presented by Branding as a service. To rethink the business model and prototype the standardization strategy of the creative processes that are being developed, it will be necessary to re-evaluate the diagnosis and analysis of the current state of Totemu, to find those opportunities for improvement, based on the problems that this agency currently presents. | |
