AVID, a fintech app, aimed to **democratise the carbon credits market** by making it accessible to retail investors. Their unique proposition was to be the "Robinhood of carbon credits." #### Challenge AVID had ambitious goals and needed to act fast to benefit from the pioneering market position. However, as a bootstrapping company, it had limited funds so it was critical to avoid both time loss and costly mistakes. For a successful and cost-effective Go-to-Market stage, Orange Bird proposed and implemented date-driven experiments in order to: - Identify the most viable target segment.  - Determine the value propositions that resonate most. - Test various marketing channels and creatives to arrive at the best cost-per-qualified lead. ## How Orange Bird Helped **AVID entrusted Orange Bird to support their Go-to-Market strategy and subsequent marketing activities.** Instead of building a product and launching marketing campaigns based on assumptions, we proposed and crafted a series of **Product Market Fit experiments**. This method not only conserves resources but also reduces the risk of misalignment with the target audience. By testing our hypotheses in real-time, we gained actionable **insights that guide product development, positioning and all marketing communications.** 01/ #### Market Research ###### Ecosystem Analysis: Orange Bird started with analysis of the brand landscape of peers and competitors with detailed assessments of target segments, pain points, value propositions and differentiators. ###### Opportunity Matrix: We created a brand voice and positioning matrix of the market landscape. This matrix helped us identify gaps in the market and align them with Gen Z's preferences. ###### Product Market Fit Workshop: We laid out our assumptions regarding the Customer Segment, Value Propositions, and Customer Relationships. This workshop helped us design experiments to test these assumptions. You are viewing the carbon-lite version of our website. You may toggle to the full version to see the images.
