Creating differentiated brand identities to drive growth in holiday home ownership
The Challenge
Park Holidays came to Cognosis at a pivotal moment in their business evolution. Having recently acquired a new business operating in their core area, they faced the complex challenge of establishing distinct brand identities for both their original brand and the newly acquired business.
The fundamental question they needed to answer was: "How do we create differentiated value propositions for two brands that must coexist within the same business, both primarily serving the holiday home ownership market?"
The project mission was multifaceted. Park Holidays needed to evolve their value proposition for each business, ensuring it was rooted in genuine customer insight. This required a clear customer segmentation to be able to identify the key strategic and operational implications of meeting each groups’ needs.
Park Holidays chose Cognosis for this project based on a longstanding and trusted relationship with our senior leadership team.
The company saw the key opportunity extending beyond just differentiating brand communication. They wanted to understand their customers at a deeper level, identify what truly drove purchase decisions in the holiday home ownership market, and translate these insights into practical, meaningful operational initiatives which would strengthen the brands’ propositions and ultimately drive commercial growth.
Cognosis has a brilliant ability to blend strategic rigour with real-world practicality. They really took the time to understand our business and adapt to our culture, which meant ideas landed quickly and effectively. The team helped us unlock clear, actionable customer insights that shaped our brand positioning and how we communicate across our brand portfolio. It was a genuinely valuable partnership, and they delivered.
