"The man with a new idea is a crank until the idea succeeds" ~ Mark Twain

 

Your Challenge:  You need a BIG IDEA for a new product, business challenge, branding strategy, or campaign.

Your Status:  “Where do we go from here?”

Our Approach:  Research the situation, jointly define the true problem, analyze it, generate LOTS of creative ideas, identify the most viable solutions, and develop a real-world action plan. On-time and on-target.

A marketable big idea flows out of a clear understanding of a goal, the business environment, the target market, customer value, and the business or brand strategy.  Big ideas connect a need with a solution that is actionable and viable.  Big ideas are unique, scary, exciting, and produce quantifiable business results that move a business forward.

AhaQuest!™ Is our path to those big, bodacious, and bold solutions that will boost your bottom line. It was developed by Market Quest Consulting's founder for generating and developing viable and actionable big ideas.  AhaQuest! is based on the Osborn-Parnes model, the most studied and verified creative problem solving model.

The AhaQuest!  model consists of the following steps.  We will guide you at each step through skillful and experienced facilitation.
