How We Work

Build, Patiently.

Some businesses can be launched quickly; others may take longer to gain initial traction. And still others must outlast lengthy regulatory approval or months-long sales cycles that even the best products cannot shortcut.

All the while, traditional investors expect quarterly updates and relentless, line-goes-up month-over-month growth.

This is why even the most promising healthcare businesses can get wiped out, well before they have a chance to thrive.

Patiently Studio is built to help the best ideas flourish and find traction, in a repeatable, scalable, and profitable manner.

Branding a new rare disease patient community

A coalition of research, advocate, and life science teams came together to launch a new patient community for wAIHA, a rare disease that impacts approximately 1 in 8,000 people. To support the launch, we developed a brand identity for the chosen wAIHA Warriors name, designed the website, and created the copy and illustrations that explained the disease, new treatments, and the like, in approachable, patient-friendly terms.

Concept branding for Upcoming global Phase 3 trials

An upcoming set of Phase 3 neurological clinical trials required a brand identity and name that could speak to a skeptical patient audience in an authentic and trustworthy manner. To support this mission, the Studio developed a robust identity that highlights the potential opportunity that these trials represent for patients who wish to exercise more agency over their lives and to compose new futures for themselves.

Process

How We Tell Your Story

We work flexibly to meet your needs as a team. And while no two teams are ever alike, our process generally involves the following framework.

1.

Learn

Your work is unique. Our job is to craft a story that does that work justice. We begin by learning about your research and your team's needs.

2.

Scope

Whether it's a full rebrand or a set of sub-brands for your clinical trials, patient-facing materials that build on your existing brand equity or brand-new patient outreach strategies, we set clear parameters for the work we'll be collaborating on.

3.

Research

With the project parameters set, we begin our research. We read through your clinical documents, analyze the target patient audience, compile assessments of the competitive landscape, and more. This allows us to identify where our opportunities for differentiation lie.

4.

Find the Big Idea

We sketch. We write. We throw paint onto walls and howl at the moon. Normal - absolutely normal! - creative processes kick off and spin faster, faster, faster still until! Voila. The Big Idea is formulated. The Big Idea is ready for review.

5.

Review + Revise

We present the work to you and your stakeholders. This includes the data we've put together, the analysis run, the bits of the scientific documents that served as inspiration, and, of course, The Big Idea. We listen to your feedback, discuss where refinements should be made, and get back to the studio for more normal - totally normal! - creative processes.

6

Finalize

With the feedback in hand, we refine The Big Idea until it is The Big Deliverable. There may be a few more rounds of conversation and refinement at this point. Soon enough, though, there it is, in your inbox and in the Dropbox folder, ready for use by you and your team: The Big Deliverable.
