Building a global, insight-led innovation engine for Avon
In beauty, things change fast.
Avon was seeking a long-term, flexible, global solution that could continuously guide innovation, marketing and new product development.
With a focus on making fast and informed decisions—that’s where we come in.
The challenge: Keeping pace at breakneck speed
To compete in the ever-evolving world of beauty and stay ahead of the game, Avon needs to innovate constantly, and act quickly on new learnings and opportunities.
So, our brief was clear. We needed to create an ongoing customer closeness and sales rep engagement program that could provide fast, well-informed, continuous recommendations, built from up-to-the-minute insight from across key markets.

The Solution: A system built for speed and substance
This didn’t call for a project. This needed a program.
Project Pulse is a bespoke insight and innovation framework, enabling multiple, fast turnaround, iterative projects across categories.
Each sprint runs for 2-3 weeks from start to finish, comprising multiple waves of testing and development, providing rapid and continuous feedback throughout.
We engage and involve category teams throughout the fieldwork process, with a dedicated onboarding and alignment session, involvement in fieldwork, and collaborative iteration sessions to progress the concepts between waves.
