About Wayne Brand Consulting
Meet the Shanghai-based strategy and brand team that connects China market decisions with brand, product, channel and sales action.
The working model One team follows the same strategic thread. Market research, positioning, naming, product thinking, creative development and channel tools are reviewed against the same customer decision. This reduces the handover loss that occurs when strategy, translation, design and activation are commissioned separately. Wayne works in bounded 90-day priorities. The format creates a clear problem, a defined set of outputs and decision gates with the client team. Longer partnerships use successive priorities rather than an open-ended list of activity. Founder Wayne Chen陈伟恩 Wayne Chen has more than 20 years of frontline China market experience. His career developed from designer and design director to strategy director and partner before he founded Wayne. That progression shapes the firm’s working standard: a strategic decision is incomplete until it can guide a product, a brand asset, a channel tool or a sales conversation. Wayne remains personally involved in major project judgement and output review. He is the author of the forthcoming Chinese-language book Scale Brand. The book is described according to its current publication status and is not represented as already published.
