The Opusᴺ Method

3F + M

FIND → FRAME → FORM → MOVE

If Ideas, made valuable. is the outcome, 3F + M is how we get there.

F
What matters?

FIND

Find what matters. We look at market, customer, competition, company and opportunity to separate the real signal from the noise.

F
What are we really solving?

FRAME

Frame the right problem. We turn the opportunity into a strategic frame: audience, proposition, positioning and direction.

F
What should it become?

FORM

Give the idea a form. We turn strategy into a brand, offer, experience or concept people can see, understand and experience.

M
Make it work in the real world.

MOVE

Move value into action. We take it to market, activate the right channels and partners, measure the response and evolve it through learning.

Scope

Not every project needs all four stages.

3F + M is also our shared language for defining project scope.

Principle

Strategy defines the channels.

Channels do not define the strategy. Before choosing execution, we clarify what problem we are actually solving.
