The Challenge

Safer initially reached out to Olivine for support in creating a multi-year marketing plan. 


To enhance their brand awareness by thoughtfully leveraging their parent brand, Thorn, Safer sought guidance on long-term strategy, prioritization, and execution.

“Olivine helped us to define who we are talking to and how we will position our product. They listened to the perspectives of many internal stakeholders and took the time to understand our highly technical product and our highly sensitive industry. Throughout the entire process, they kept us focused on the human elements—our customers and the ultimate impact our product will have.”

The Deliverables

We produced new positioning & messaging and a multi-year marketing plan. 


Olivine kicked off with a series of foundational PMM workshops to uncover Safer’s primary buyer persons and users, Jobs to Be Done, and product messaging and positioning. 

Once this foundational work was complete, the Olivine team worked with Safer’s key stakeholders to map out a three-year marketing strategy plan and a two-year tactical marketing plan aligned with Safer’s 2024 OKRs. 

From there, Olivine helped prioritize the first areas of execution and began work on deliverables:
