Market Research

Canada Post provides data for local businesses, which we used to target an audience.

Based on input from local stakeholders (businesses, clients) we identified times of service (dinner, brunch). We informed the identified audience of that offering via mailed postcards with attractive photography.

Mood boards and photography of the surrounding got us started with iterations.
