Activation
Turn a strategy or an idea into a 360° activation framework — phases, channels, markets, the assets to produce and the decisions to take.
How it works
- From any strategy, open Strategy → Activation.
- Give it: Idea, Strategy, Brand, Audience and 6 more.
- Set the options you want, then run it to get back written copy.
The copy is written back onto the page and kept on the notebook or strategy it was written in.
Where to find it
Any strategy → Strategy → Activation
/strategy/{strategy}/strategy/activation/
Playgrounds you have not picked are hidden from the navigation rather than taken away — add this one back from your playgrounds settings at any time.
You can also just ask for it in a chat: this playground needs nothing picked off your machine, so the assistant can run it for you.
