Lean Canvas Template v1.2 bradbox.com | @bradbox

1. Find a company you admire. It can be a big brand, a small business or one you want to create:

On the attached Lean Canvas Template here fill in 4 - 5 points for each section. You can use bullet points but your points should be clear and well explained. About 2 or 3 sentences each is good.

Note: To approach this assignment, put yourself in the shoes of the company's brand leadership. What type of customer are they targeting? What is that customer's problem they are solving? Hint -- it has to do with the unique brand message and vibe. There is a certain type of customer who would see this brand and think "that's for me". Get inside of their head and imagine what customer problem you are solving.

If I were selling handbags, the customer problem might be phrased "How do I carry my personal belongings, and look trendy and chique at the same time?" Or "How do I make a personal fashion statement that shows I'm a fashion influencer?"

Apply that same logic to this brand for the customers you are targeting.
