We refocused a vision leader on its members.
The Challenge
Help The Vision Council shift from decades of consumer marketing to member support, with a clear role that manufacturers, optical labs, and retailers couldn’t fill alone.
Wildly Original Move
Positioned The Vision Council as a unifying force for better vision and better lives, with a brand system grounded in research and member needs.
Result
An award-winning rebrand and scalable platform for a 500+ member community.
The Challenge
After decades of consumer marketing, The Vision Council was shifting its focus to members during a period of consolidation and disruption. What could it offer eyewear manufacturers, optical labs, and retailers that they couldn’t do themselves? The organization needed a clearer role, a stronger member proposition, and a brand built for an evolving vision care ecosystem.


Wildly Original Move
We combined quantitative research, consumer segmentation, and stakeholder insight to position The Vision Council as a unifying force for better vision and better lives. The resulting brand system went beyond a logo to guide how the organization behaves, communicates, and leads. Crisis communications and media relations support helped put that role into practice during rapid industry change.

Results
The rebrand earned industry recognition and gave The Vision Council a scalable platform across marketing, communications, and advocacy. Membership continued to grow across a community of more than 500 organizations, alongside an expanded membership structure that included healthcare, technology, and contact lens companies. Its role as a strategic leader became clearer as its industry evolved.
