The BIG idea for the BIG idea...

Now that we have a brand, in the form of Brut, and a BIG idea for the brand, in the form of male cosmetics, we now have to create a brand concept to make the whole idea work and sell the concept. 
It is essentually the BIG idea for the Big idea!

Initial thoughts:

'No Guts, No Glory'
'All or nothing'
'Tuxedo for the eyes'
'Mascaradventure'
'Stand out from the crowd'
New Man
'Cut Throat' (shave)
'Boys will be Boys/ Boys will be Girls'
'Manity'
Mankind
Take a risk.

Final Concept:

He who Dares...

- This concept was taken from the original phrase 'He who dares... wins' 
- The original phrase meaning a buisness risk which is what we are doing by re branding a company
- It is also challenging / Daring the customer to try out the product
- By not using the word 'wins' it lets the customer finish the phrase themselves, revealing the advantages of using the brand
- It carries a positive message
- Similar idea to the successful Guinness campaign that states 'Good things come to those that...'
- The very idea of daring someone to do something is very masculine and it is thought that you are a wimp if you do not complete a dare

Potential for concept extension:

Dare to be... Different/ Individual/ New/ Unique/ Beautiful etc
