Lawrence and Mayo Envisioning the Future
The director of marketing for Lawrence & Mayo (L&M) was reviewing the company’s results for the past financial year. Far from encouraging, the results were a reflection of an addition to the company’s existing product portfolio: accessories. L&M was an established name in the field of ophthalmic and optical instruments. The prestigious brand had maintained an exclusive positioning for over 100 years.

The director of marketing wanted to comprehend the impact of the new product line, the reasons behind the poor performance and the way forward for L&M.
