The Mantel Method

  • REVIEW WITH A POINT OF VIEW

    Over many years Stone Mantel has developed frameworks and principles that help you assess your current situation. When we assess your current strategy or experience we employ the best thinking about innovation, data analytics, brand strategy, and customer-centricity.

    We focus on needs-based concepts and help you to see your marketing and product strategy in very different ways.

  • FIND EXPERIENCES THAT MATTER

    Discover is about finding new needs that your customers have, exploring their journeys, understanding their lives, and charting new white space. We custom build our methodologies. We use ethnographic, action research, and digital ethnographic techniques to find new jobs to get done (needs), describe decision-making, and reframe the nature of the challenge.

  • DESIGN THE EXPERIENCE

    Rapid Co-Creation Turns Ideas into Concepts
    Once we’ve helped you identify and frame the new opportunity, we work with your customers to generate new ideas for new experiences that turn the opportunity into meaningful experience concepts. Our Define process gets you to design concepts fast.

    We walk you through a step-by-step report on how to build the experience for your customer.

  • TEST FOR TIME WELL SPENT

    From quantitative validation of concepts to prototype development and pilot programs, we help you demonstrate to your stake holders the value and implications of the new solutions. We help you roll out the program and launch the product.

  • CREATE CULTURAL CAPITAL

    Execution. Do it. Make it happen. From boot camps to business models, we show your teams what it will take to go from current state to future plan. We help you get started as fast as you possibly can.

    The Mantel Method is the most tested, most enduring design thinking methodology for meaningful experiences.
