+# Meeting Notes Processor
+
+This script processes meeting transcripts and creates structured notes in Notion. It uses OpenAI's API to analyze the transcripts and extract key information.
+
+## Features
+
+- Processes all `.txt` transcript files in the `transcripts` directory
+- Uses AI to extract structured information from transcripts:
+  - Meeting title
+  - Participants
+  - Category
+  - Summary
+  - Detailed content
+  - Action items
+  - Meeting URL (if mentioned)
+  - Date
+- Creates formatted Notion pages with the extracted information
+- Handles multiple transcripts in batch
+- Provides clear success/error feedback
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. Python 3.8 or higher
+2. Required Python packages (install via pip):
+   ```bash
+   pip install openai python-dotenv notion-client
+   ```
+
+3. API Keys:
+   - OpenAI API key
+   - Notion access token
+   - Notion database ID (where notes will be created)
+
+## Setup
+
+1. Create a `.env` file in the same directory with your API keys:
+   ```
+   OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_key_here
+   NOTION_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_notion_token_here
+   ```
+
+2. Update the `DATABASE_ID` constant in the script with your Notion database ID.
+
+3. Create a `transcripts` directory and place your transcript files (with `.txt` extension) in it.
+
+## Usage
+
+1. Place your transcript files in the `transcripts` directory.
+
+2. Run the script:
+   ```bash
+   python process_meeting_notes.py
+   ```
+
+The script will:
+1. Find all `.txt` files in the `transcripts` directory
+2. Process each transcript using OpenAI's API
+3. Create a formatted Notion page for each transcript
+4. Show progress and results for each file processed
+
+## Output
+
+For each transcript processed, you'll see:
+- Processing status
+- Success/failure message
+- URL of the created Notion page (if successful)
+- Any errors that occurred (if failed)
+
+## Error Handling
+
+The script includes error handling for:
+- Missing API keys
+- Invalid transcripts
+- API errors
+- JSON parsing errors
+- Notion API errors
+
+## Notion Page Structure
+
+Each created Notion page includes:
+1. Title (meeting title)
+2. Category
+3. Participants
+4. Summary
+5. Meeting Notes (structured content)
+6. Action Items (as checkboxes)
+7. Meeting URL (if available)
+8. Date

+Dimo Stoychev | 00:00
+Annjine yeah, how are you?
+Janine | 00:01
+Okay, good, I'm glad it's Friday.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:06
+Yeah, [Laughter] because I have one place, so I kind of have two Fridays now.
+Janine | 00:08
+Yes, I've thought it's Friday since Wednesday, so it's quite nice for it to actually be Friday. Yeah, how are you finding it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:20
+Just nice.
+Janine | 00:21
+Is it easy to like switch off?
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:24
+Yes, it's not that bad.
+Janine | 00:27
+Not bad.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:27
+Won't won't enjoy it. I can't work more than two days in a row, which just makes it more manageable.
+Janine | 00:32
+Yeah. True. Yeah. I found it really hard to have Wednesdays off. And I used to have wednes days off. That's where it's a different role. But Wednesday was just like it was hectic.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:49
+Yeah. The biggest challenge is meetings, because I feel like if people can get me on a Wednesday, then I get all the meetings on Thursday.
+Janine | 00:54
+Yeah.
+And you come back in and then you can't catch up on anything because you just have meetings the whole day.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:06
+Yeah.
+Janine | 01:08
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:09
+A few weeks ago, I came back and I had six hours of meetings on a Thursday and so many emails and messages and everything.
+Then when I went through everything that was sent to me, there were six actions. So what was the point of having all this email and messaging?
+Janine | 01:34
+I could just send you an email and then, by the way, I just need you to do this.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:38
+Yeah, because I just went through it, I had to go through everything because it wasn't organized and that was performance day.
+Janine | 01:42
+Yeah, that's my... Yeah, as long as it's working for you, that's all that matters.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:46
+Yeah, but it's... Overall, I think it's much better. I struggled with the first five days. Yeahm.
+Janine | 02:00
+Suppose, I wish I had a full day off. I'm sad that I went back to four and a half days. I messed up one day to myself.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:12
+I mean, you rarely used the full day.
+Janine | 02:16
+I know, that's what I mean. I was working and not getting paid to actually do what I was doing anyway, so it made sense. I got more holidays back by going half a day more, so I can't really complain.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:29
+Yeah. I'm going to get more money.
+Janine | 02:33
+Kind money and more holidays.
+Yeah. Then anyhow, medical nutrition.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:45
+Y.
+Janine | 02:46
+Firstly, the storyboard, the segment storyboard. When do we need to send that to the client? Because David worked on it yesterday, but it's not right.
+Still, we're struggling to find that piece of footage in between that wasn't right. We need to do to show the duality. It's just really hard to find the same footage of somebody drinking.
+Like a "drink"? I've asked John if he can help, but he just needs to know when we need to send it to the client.
+Dimo Stoychev | 03:21
+Yeah.
+Janine | 03:23
+Basically, I think we plan to have next week for them to review because then we've got David booked in Wednesday, Thursday, I think it is the following week to start on the version one of the animation.
+Dimo Stoychev | 03:35
+Okay.
+Janine | 03:44
+A check of Tuesday, Wednesday, the week after the 24th 25th.
+Dimo Stoychev | 03:49
+Yeah. Well, I guess the question is: is it difficult to find that footage, or is it impossible to find that footage?
+Janine | 04:01
+David has not been able to find her. I had a look yesterday and some time I had between things and I was struggling to find something. David, the first version David did, he misunderstood what was being asked, and he changed all of the footage in that section.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:21
+He lovely.
+Janine | 04:25
+So he just found it. Then he was like, "I've just found people of different ages for each side." I was like, "Yeah, but that's not quite what we're trying to show.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:35
+No.
+Janine | 04:36
+Like whole point was that it was the same person in two different scenarios.
+So we can't do that. We need the Task Force to find a piece of footage or two pieces of footage that fit in that flavor frame.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:54
+Yeah, ca there's a difference between we need to spend some time to find something or this doesn't exist.
+Janine | 05:04
+Yp at the minute. I don't know if it exists. As far as David's time. That he had yesterday. He hasn't found anything.
+Dimo Stoychev | 05:15
+Okay, I think we should want some time. So you might have to look for it.
+Janine | 05:21
+M yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 05:23
+And I think it's fine if that goes to them at some point next week to review. They've seen it once.
+I think the review on their side hopefully wouldn't be too extensive. I just don't know how many additional people need to review at this stage.
+Janine | 05:45
+And what I wanted to leave enough time for before we start that version.
+Dimo Stoychev | 05:47
+Yeah.
+Janine | 05:50
+Okay. If I say to John, like, end of playing Monday, we OOP. We just try and get it over as soon as possible next week.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:01
+It Y.
+Janine | 06:02
+Yeah. You're happy with that? Then I can just take some more time to look and then see if John has any advice, or even if we just consult Ellen and be like, "How did you find these?" Please? Because you seem to have done what nobody else can do. I just don't know whether she exhausted what she could find and that's why that section was slightly different, or whether she was just trying to show flavors.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:26
+Yeah. I mean submitting.
+Janine | 06:30
+And something else's networks flavor, and I don't know, there's something else.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:35
+Yeah. She may have some suggestions as well. Because she spent time looking already?
+Janine | 06:40
+Yeah, so that's... I was thinking. I don't know how to reach out to Ellen and ask some advice on what she was searching for or how she managed to find those in such a short time.
+I'm so impressed that she was able to find all of that and do a storyboard in one day, honestly.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:05
+Yeah, I now she did good.
+Janine | 07:08
+Yeah, okay, that was the first thing anyway. I will figure that out then. That's fine. What? We needed to talk through. Was like next steps. Isn't that like the next bunch of assets, I suppose that we need to do? We need to look at our Vese, we go.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:27
+Yep.
+So I'm just getting the Client Monday board as well.
+Janine | 07:41
+I mean, I don't think I like one there right now.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:47
+No. How come?
+Janine | 07:51
+I should say that there's so many things that are confusing. I don't like it. No. Okay, some things don't need to be confusing, they just are. Because the way things are set up, I think I just need to streamline how we actually are setting cards up because that's definitely not everybody's doing it the same.
+It's confusing me.
+Dimo Stoychev | 08:13
+No.
+Janine | 08:14
+No, you have like, a version one version two of things, and we have like, different line items for it. Not everybody does that. And then I really struggle to find, like, where the comments are coming from.
+Dimo Stoychev | 08:26
+Or comments should be on the main item.
+Janine | 08:31
+Yeah, sometimes it's not. Sometimes it is. I don't know.
+Dimo Stoychev | 08:34
+Yeah, it's to meet the it's all in the same place.
+Janine | 08:34
+Which is easier to find to know me because I feel like when there's so many links on the main comment board, that gets really confusing.
+Dimo Stoychev | 08:45
+Yeah, basically the table all notifications from the boards and just have notifications if someone asigns you to a task or tags you.
+Janine | 08:47
+And then we have all of the separate things, like I get a notification for every time I'm tagged and being an owner on something, and it just gets really confusing. Don't like it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 09:07
+That's what I did.
+Janine | 09:09
+Okay, yeah, that makes sense.
+Dimo Stoychev | 09:11
+Because you get own notifications from all birds, and they have nothing to do with you.
+Janine | 09:16
+Yeah. It gets really confusing. Yeah. I think I need to play about the things or have time to do that because every time I put my train an hour in, something happens so I don't get to do anything anyway, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 09:35
+Okay, so we spoke about the video, the customer pitch tech that's with them.
+Janine | 09:38
+Yes. Yep.
+Dimo Stoychev | 09:45
+But it will come back to us. I don't know when.
+Janine | 09:48
+We have some time booked in. Excuse me? We have some time booked in with Anie next Wednesday.
+Dimo Stoychev | 09:59
+To link it to longevity.
+Janine | 10:03
+Wednesday segment client amends on DS section.
+So yeah, that's the longevity section. And then at the minute, we have time in with Dave on Thursday. Just only the day after. So, I don't know if that's too soon. It probably is too soon. I.
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:27
+Probably. Yeah, I think for client review, we should be putting everything in the PowerPoint at this point.
+Janine | 10:40
+Okay, so I update it and then we put it into the PowerPoint directly. Okay, so Thursday we will be fine. Then if Annie works on it Wednesday, Dave works on it Thursday, we got it over to the client Thursday, we're off Friday for Impact Day.
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:53
+Yeah, no, I that might be better.
+Janine | 10:59
+I lead time as it is done.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:01
+Yeah, because when we send it as a Word document, I feel like we're making it more difficult.
+Janine | 11:11
+Yeah, because it's quite heavily focused on what the design looks like. Okay, do you want... I do only have an hour in with Annie on that Wednesday. Do you think that's enough time?
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:23
+I don't know, because they want to better the longevity and it's not seen the presentation before.
+Janine | 11:25
+I literally have no idea.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:33
+I think we need more.
+Janine | 11:34
+She hasn't... She has been involved in all of the longevity work. We could share it early with her as a reference.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:37
+Yeah, but she's not seen the men's presentation at all. Yeah, I think we have Annie on the responsive searchers on Monday.
+Janine | 11:52
+She be there. She has more time Monday.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:54
+Maybe we can.
+Janine | 11:56
+She needs to say... She's got quite a bit of time available next week, so we need to book some more time.
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:00
+Yeah, what I'm thinking is maybe we can use some time for her to review the presentation, just to kind of know what's coming.
+And then.
+Janine | 12:09
+On Monday.
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:12
+TH Monday or Tuesday because then once we get the feedback, it should be easier to work on the thems.
+Janine | 12:18
+Yeah, okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:24
+I don't know if that makes sense. Or we just wait for the feedback, and she reviews everything.
+Janine | 12:29
+I think it'll help Annie to see what she's working with. I think that might help her. I'll just spend 30 minutes reviewing things, review it. I don't know that there's a lot in that section that she will help towards what she's doing.
+It's just a nice overview, I suppose.
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:51
+But then the dependency is we need client feedback by then, and that includes the trailer review. I don't know. We'll be able to get client feedback by Wednesday. Castrello takes a week.
+Janine | 13:17
+When did they go into Ontrello?
+Dimo Stoychev | 13:19
+I don't know.
+Janine | 13:21
+Did they say on the call but this I cold.
+Dimo Stoychev | 13:27
+I don't think they were talking about what changes they're going to make, or did they say it's made? Then I can check and then.
+Janine | 13:48
+I think they just said they'd shared it with some other wider team and Selina taken out those section. No, I think Selina shared that. Ontrello because maybe she said that she had taken out those, slides that Tom had put in because she was like, they won't get through the Treller process because they're not they don't really mean anything right now.
+Dimo Stoychev | 14:12
+Yeah, okay. They said it's gone, and they're waiting for Roman's approval today, so Friday. So, absolutely, it might be okay for Wednesday?
+Janine | 14:27
+Keep it in and keep our fingersed.
+Dimo Stoychev | 14:28
+Yeah. Yeah.
+Janine | 14:32
+[Laughter] fingers Hope. So, I'll book a slot for SAF to look at that PowerPoint, and then I don't know, she has an hour on Wednesday. I don't know if you can up that slightly. I don't know how to do it on my own.
+I think I always revoked my access to see when my booking ends up gone in. That's rude. Shall we get that back or is it for next Wednesday? What's the deck next?
+Dimo Stoychev | 15:32
+So what might be next? They think it will be the partners.
+Janine | 15:49
+Is that the one that we decided to redo?
+Dimo Stoychev | 15:52
+Y.
+Janine | 15:54
+Yeah, because I got that booked in with Jenny. Then I took it out to EGA.
+Dimo Stoychev | 16:02
+Yeah, that will be after we've amended the deck so we have the link to longevity.
+Janine | 16:22
+Hem but Jenny.
+Dimo Stoychev | 16:25
+So we need to figure out when we can schedule that. Dearly, I mean, Susan does.
+Janine | 16:37
+Go by creator.
+Dimo Stoychev | 16:41
+Well, Suzie might be able to do it because it's all existing content and.
+Janine | 16:51
+Who were we trying to put this with originally? Z Flora? Didn't Jenny want Flora to lead on something?
+Dimo Stoychev | 16:56
+No.
+Janine | 16:58
+And she was supporting, and then she said, "What was that on?
+Dimo Stoychev | 17:03
+Flora has not been involved in medical nutrition.
+Janine | 17:07
+What was Flora working on?
+Maybe I don't know what it was. I might have gone crazy.
+Dimo Stoychev | 17:16
+Yeah, I think medical.
+We want Suzie to be the main copywriter because she worked on Mixin, so that was supposed to be a way in for her, but I think she should be able to do this pressure.
+Janine | 17:28
+Yeah, of course.
+Dimo Stoychev | 17:35
+It's not that different from what just did And.
+Janine | 17:44
+We thinking we wait for the PowerPoint to be finalized.
+Dimo Stoychev | 17:55
+I mean, we can work.
+Janine | 17:58
+Nobody has time.
+Dimo Stoychev | 18:00
+We can work on an outline already. I think the longevity section is where we need approval. So after next week, we shall be safe?
+Janine | 18:22
+I that's a good job and nobody has any time.
+Dimo Stoychev | 18:28
+Why? Did you have time?
+Janine | 18:44
+When did you have time for that? I'm going to show you 12 hours so we do it outline first for Jenny's Journeys next time, never July.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:06
+Yeah. Yeah.
+Janine | 19:10
+She's off for a week at the end of June, start of July. Susie's next time is July.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:19
+Never.
+Janine | 19:23
+I say it's really bad.
+This is Susie's calendar.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:30
+Okay.
+Janine | 19:30
+She's just like Lonza, it's like pockets of time, they're set. And then Jenny soon. She has Tuesday next week. She's got some time available. That randomly.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:52
+I may platinum premix.
+Janine | 19:52
+And then for what? Premix.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:01
+For that PowerPoint. I think we have it on Thursday or Wednesday, but we have premix.
+Janine | 20:09
+Nope, that's very large. Note we have premix next week, the week after the 23rd.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:18
+No, get at him sooner.
+Janine | 20:24
+This is for the one-page though. The time that's in on the week of the 23rd one.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:28
+Yeah, but there was a booking for the PowerPoint, it was next Thursday.
+Janine | 20:36
+It is no longer in there.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:37
+Lovely.
+Janine | 20:39
+Have the white paper?
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:41
+No, that's pharma, it wasn't sor. Just when I checked yesterday.
+Well, anyway, I need any.
+Janine | 20:56
+Did you track Thursday last week instead of next week? There was one on Thursday last week.
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:02
+No.
+Janine | 21:02
+Are you sure?
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:04
+The 19th.
+It wasn't. The job.
+Janine | 21:15
+19th. That's very much I didn't know too.
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:34
+Let me find that.
+Janine | 21:53
+Theres draft one time and for the one page on the 19th a book in.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:05
+The next booking is on the 23rd.
+Janine | 22:14
+Anyway, do you want to join on Tuesday?
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:15
+Yes.
+Janine | 22:18
+That's all that really matters, isn't it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:20
+I mean, it depends when you have design for it.
+Janine | 22:25
+Okay, I don't know, I need to speak to Louise. I dropped in a note yesterday on it, and I played yesterday and just said we need some support on PowerPoint externally.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:34
+Y.
+Janine | 22:38
+And she said she's got two people in mind that we could use. Because I said, I think it's something Clea might be able to do. But she said they're too expensive, but I don't know who's been using them.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:49
+Isn't the cheapest?
+Janine | 22:50
+That's expensive. Well, usually if you give them a budget, they're like, okay, cool. But maybe it's just people who have not really worked with them and they're just like, no, I'm not doing that for that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:56
+Yes, yeah, okay.
+Janine | 23:04
+I don't know. I asked if she could catch up with me before three.
+Please. And thank you. PowerPoint.
+Jenny.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:15
+So it's twenty third at's silly.
+Janine | 23:22
+Pages on the one page that there's no time on the PowerPoint. Immense.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:30
+Yup, I've done it. But I need Jenny to go through it because the main point they had on the call was that it needs to be streamlined. So I've taken all the comments and action items toward the feedback.
+It's all put slide by slide, but there's too much in there tomorrow.
+Janine | 23:57
+Okay, how much time do you want? Jenny is the hold of 12. [Laughter] Okay, not too, but it is all of the slides that she will need to look at.
+Dimo Stoychev | 24:03
+I mean, the whole deck is two hours. The whole deck is like five slides, so it's not a lot of work, but it needs... She needs to look at three slides because the case studies are in
+there. Fine.
+Janine | 24:23
+Still, do we need any additional time?
+Because if you do, you can't have any.
+White paper writes all white papers, so, right, half of white paper. Then do we need this premix time for the one pager on Monday?
+Dimo Stoychev | 25:10
+Yeah. So that's the week after? Yeah, we said next week we're going to focus on the PowerPoint, so then the week after next, we can look at one pages.
+Janine | 25:13
+Yeah, but that's fine for the one pageer.
+Dimo Stoychev | 25:48
+Don't move it.
+Janine | 25:50
+I'm not believing it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 25:53
+Every book in Amend.
+Janine | 26:00
+It'sc. When Jenny's got no time left.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:05
+That's fine. As long as we have it.
+Janine | 26:14
+I just took those two hours that she has on bed, usually my book and show up here at the bottom of the screen. I can see that my buttons are gone through and I can see when the lozers dropped them in. Or if anybody else's book time before may always has revoked my access.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:32
+I don't know.
+Janine | 26:33
+I feel insulted, to be honest.
+Okay. I've booked some amends for that day. Anyway, Thursday the third, when Jenny's back, she's off for five days.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:45
+Okay, lovely.
+Janine | 26:47
+She writes out one page, and then... Okay, what's next? Is there anything medical nutrition next that we need to look at?
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:02
+Website copy.
+Janine | 27:07
+Wait. The partner, Brochia. We still didn't decide on it with the partner, Brochia, did we.
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:11
+Yeah, so I think that's where we were looking at Suzie, that she's got loans. The loansom.
+Janine | 27:22
+She's, his twelve hours only quoted on the job. Maybe we want to work on an outline first. Do we want to do a detailed outline during most of that time?
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:37
+We may not need to do an outline.
+Janine | 27:37
+Isn't that okay?
+It's still going to need at least eight hours, though. Only as.
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:50
+Yeah. So what did we say?
+Janine | 27:57
+Ite Lonza
+did the third and fourth. She could probably work on that. That's a long way away.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:21
+Yes. So next week we don't need to work on it. Ideally, we start commencing on the 23rd, but there's no time.
+Janine | 28:35
+That's the first week of July again. Description of this is just write a blog Firebove.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:50
+How about we get this scene for the first week of July and we decide to move it forward because all of that Lone's stuff is not going to happen.
+Janine | 29:01
+Okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:07
+Something is going to happen.
+Janine | 29:29
+Wait, what was that draft?
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:32
+What?
+Janine | 29:33
+Alpine, Jenny, April.
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:40
+So we have it?
+Janine | 29:42
+Now, that was the booking I made in April.
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:49
+Yeah.
+That's what I've been.
+Janine | 29:50
+Eight hours. Nine hours.
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:53
+And one day.
+Janine | 29:56
+Yeah. Two days married brief 2.
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:57
+Okay. Hey, and I think this is one we need to try to bring forward, but at least we have it at some point.
+After we commenced in 2023, because I don't want to start it next week if they're still comms. I'll just leave it. If they say we have time next week, we can do it. I was just thinking, better to figure out how to breathe it than to figure out.
+Janine | 30:50
+Yeah, let me schedule. It gives me anxiety. Third and fourth. Would you like me to book comms on the ninth? Then Jenny on the one day to review with Jenny. Reviews it on Monday the seventh.
+Then Susie can work on it. On the ninth.
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:23
+Yeah. Okay, so that's getting into client. July 10th in a month. Okay.
+Can we just book a bunch of stuff for July, Alonza?
+Janine | 32:18
+How long would it take Jenny to review? Two hours, one hour, I don't know, in doubt.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:26
+Yes, split the middle. Yeah, sorry, someone to work.
+Janine | 32:34
+I don't know why I put my name on July 7th. yes.
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:03
+Sorry, my dog got delivered.
+Janine | 33:09
+How is muffin?
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:11
+Warm.
+Janine | 33:13
+Yeah, it always gives us a little sneak peek when she's gone when she's at... Can she? She's on Sky's like, "Yeah, it was only a matter of time, wasn't it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:15
+Yeah, she's fine. Just a bit, just lounging around.
+Yeah, they became friends eventually. Sky was very nervous at first.
+Janine | 33:45
+Thoughtbster? Yeah. It's like. This is my house, it's me.
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:52
+Yeah, but then apparently she defended Moffin when some Labradors got a bit... not.
+Janine | 34:01
+One a it rot.
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:03
+They didn't attack, they were just a bit too curious. Then Guy went to kind of to them off.
+Janine | 34:08
+Yeah, that's a good step, but basically says us all.
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:14
+Yeah.
+Janine | 34:18
+[Laughter].
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:19
+And Moffin is now She's not biting, but she's kind of keeping dogs at distance.
+Like. Knows how to defend herself and keep her space.
+Janine | 34:34
+Yep. Yeah, Sky's gonna be like big sister proud.
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:39
+Yes.
+Janine | 34:39
+Big sister isn't too... told her what to do, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:46
+So partner brochure with.
+Janine | 34:47
+The brochure done booked with caveat of bringing it forward if we can.
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:50
+Yeah, good. So we have the website for that. I think we need some guidance from Catherine first. So...
+I think we'll be the week after next that we can work at the earliest because we speak to Catherine. We choose the next week, we have the PowerPoint ready. Yeah, so some point after next week.
+Janine | 35:44
+Just the right time for nobody to be available. How much time do we need on that one?
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:51
+I don't know. It
+could be done by Annabelle. By the way, yeah, the landing page because I worked on this copy originally just down on the website pages.
+Janine | 36:02
+Is it the home page?
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:14
+It just depends whose code capacity.
+Janine | 36:18
+It's like a fight for people's time. Is it Annabelle for Annabelle's time?
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:21
+No, not that ago.
+Janine | 36:23
+And then she's off for two weeks. You can have Anna at the end of July.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:26
+She's up for two weeks just to impact.
+Janine | 36:28
+[Laughter] She's off for three weeks. The 9th, the week of the 7th, and the week of the 14th of July.
+So that's why I clean already knows.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:38
+Okay. Let me tell Laura.
+Janine | 36:50
+All your time. Do you know yours?
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:52
+Yeah.
+Janine | 36:54
+And HTBA.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:54
+No, that's.
+Janine | 36:55
+I'm second of HCBTB and Lonza, and Kathalan can always do one. To be honest, that's what I think. I'm sick of them fighting for people's time.
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:43
+Does the green show how much time is booked or how much time is available?
+Janine | 37:48
+How much times booked?
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:49
+Okay, so just got them.
+Janine | 37:54
+Not really. She just got like 2 hours on Thursday and half an hour on Wednesday, that's that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 38:01
+Yeah.
+Janine | 38:07
+Enough.
+Dimo Stoychev | 38:08
+Okay, so it's the first week of July.
+Janine | 38:32
+Can think of a word. Lonza was the word I was looking for. How could I have forgotten that word?
+Dimo Stoychev | 38:38
+It's on screen like a million times.
+Janine | 38:40
+I've literally... I'm over-lapping just bed out what we had. We could book 34.5 hours.
+So no, we can book time the 30th to the 2nd. But she'd got to work across those days. Which is annoying for a copyrighter to have to do to remain on the lease.
+Dimo Stoychev | 39:05
+Yeah. So maybe, a few things, which I don't think are as urgent as what we already discussed. So that's the website copy, and then we need to work on a carousel.
+Janine | 39:27
+Parasol.
+Dimo Stoychev | 39:30
+Yeah, so a carousel, and I think we have four. Let me check so I'm not lying. Yeah. So the social assets. We have one carousel and three single images.
+So for that, we need copy and creative.
+So maybe just to split this for creative, we're going to need three images, one carousel. For copy, we're going to need posts for the full video posts using the carousel boths using the single images.
+Janine | 40:31
+You put that in there. So I can speak to the loo teller being one plays.
+Dimo Stoychev | 40:35
+I can link you to the proposal, if that helps. It's here, actually. Yeah.
+Janine | 40:48
+Bless you. Five card carousel, three static images.
+Dimo Stoychev | 40:57
+This doesn't mention the amount of copy, do do.
+Janine | 41:01
+Now because it just as copyrighting design and types of five car carsel on three static images.
+Dimo Stoychev | 41:06
+Yeah. We have it mapped out.
+We don't have that out.
+Janine | 41:48
+[Laughter] We have that map out. We don't have that out.
+Dimo Stoychev | 41:53
+And this doesn't make sense.
+Janine | 42:00
+All that customer sales deck hit us really hard.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:08
+Because all the time in one place we got secondation.
+Janine | 42:09
+2025 hours. Yeah, we did, but we're on 11600.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:17
+Yup. But if you remember, the first design was just wrong because I think we pri.
+Janine | 42:28
+Covered for like a thousand of its 25.25 hours of copywriightting.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:31
+Yeah.
+Janine | 42:43
+Nope, that's not here. 30 plus hours of copywriting. Okay, anyway, that's not what we're here for.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:57
+So yeah, social copying, if it helps to quantify it, we have three images, so we can do three sets of copy for that.
+Janine | 42:59
+Okay.
+Three sets of copy pair image.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:14
+Yeah. That's one set of copy pair image.
+Janine | 43:16
+So nine one set of copy, [Laughter] one cop pair image.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:20
+One copy per much.
+Janine | 43:26
+So we just need three copy and three images too. Confuse that. And then the carousel. We need one set of copy, two sets of copy for the carousel.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:36
+Well, two, yeah, cause it's the same carousel we're going to create. Two different sets of copy.
+Janine | 43:49
+So two copy. 2 carousel copy.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:52
+Thanks. Up for the video.
+Janine | 43:55
+Three single image copy. And then what about the video?
+Dimo Stoychev | 44:03
+So that's the posts that go with the ad. So for the video, two again, then, just to clarify, each image needs copy on it, and the carousel only needs one carousel copy that will be shown on the actual viso.
+Janine | 44:15
+Six which is fine that can just be done in the brief, okay? Yeah, all good. Yes, to ad copy, one carousel image copy, one carousel design with testing the copy with you, yes. Wow, that was long-winded, didn't it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 44:32
+Yeah, okay. So we don't create two carousels. We just need one carousel and then two hard copies. Okay, yes, yeah, okay.
+Janine | 44:59
+Okay. Created one carousel, three images copy, two carousel copy, two video copy and three single image copy. They go. I mean, I have to find the time for that It's okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 45:15
+And then for when the partner brochure is ready and the website is ready, we need to get the launch block.
+Janine | 45:29
+Yeah, thank you. Launch blog, it's not in this. Is it in the blog post?
+Dimo Stoychev | 45:34
+Yeah, no, that's in the retainer.
+Janine | 45:41
+Large blog after the website's all.
+Dimo Stoychev | 45:45
+Yeah. So, by the looks of it, that's going to be August because we don't want to launch it in the middle of July. So, it will be middle of August.
+Janine | 46:04
+Launch in the middle of August.
+Dimo Stoychev | 46:06
+Yeah, if we can do it early July, but I doubt it because, yeah, it's not the most urgent thing.
+Janine | 46:15
+Thanks night too. Jenny's time, really frees up from the start of July. In fairness, she has nothing booked in pretty much except that recurring time.
+Dimo Stoychev | 46:25
+Yeah, I don't want Jenny working on a block. Ideally, Suzie would be better.
+Janine | 46:32
+Susie. not too bad.
+I think this is where Lizzie got up to with Sophie, blocking Lonza to death, and then she just frees up, so maybe we will try and actually get timeet.
+Dimo Stoychev | 46:48
+Yeah, okay, so that needs to be in and then 222. I lost my screen.
+Janine | 47:04
+I like this call. It's been chaotic. Email by the way.
+Dimo Stoychev | 47:07
+No.
+Janine | 47:09
+Well.
+Dimo Stoychev | 47:17
+Because you know what, that's it.
+Janine | 47:22
+That was easy.
+Dimo Stoychev | 47:24
+Yeah, with it, we got important... No, don't move the premix stuff.
+Janine | 47:25
+Not half. Things are booked in half and all. No, we booked some things in that all need to move if they can. Okay, except remix, that's not counted three weeks.
+Dimo Stoychev | 47:44
+Yeah.
+Janine | 47:46
+We just need to make sure that Louise books that time. I'm actually going to talk to Louise anyway, so I'll mention.
+Dimo Stoychev | 47:54
+So mention prepare the PowerPoint with the copy based on the feedback.
+Janine | 47:58
+Yep, Jenny ch is dead.
+Dimo Stoychev | 48:01
+It just needs to be streamlined and then designed and done.
+Janine | 48:09
+Yeah. So, if Jenny is working on looking at that on Tuesday, what day would you prefer for the PowerPoint people to work on it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 48:19
+Well, it needs to bet clientd on Thursd.
+Janine | 48:29
+So Wednesday.
+Dimo Stoychev | 48:32
+Yeah.
+Janine | 48:39
+He a parcel that I don't know what I ordered, probably. I keep things just... Keep arriving, and I'm like, "I will do it, Chris." That's Father's Day.
+Maybe you're forgetting about those things. Okay, Wednesday is... I'll see what I can do.
+Dimo Stoychev | 49:06
+I mean, it can be the risky is to get Jenny Tuesday morning and then design Tuesd the afternoon.
+Janine | 49:12
+No Wednesdays. No.
+But Jenny is not happy with the copy if she has questions.
+Dimo Stoychev | 49:24
+Yeah, that's why I said.
+Janine | 49:27
+No, it's only five slides, isn't it? If we're actually going with a PowerPoint, but there's a guy called the PowerPoint guy or something like that the team found.
+I'm hoping he's good at PowerPoint because that is a very big statement to make.
+Dimo Stoychev | 49:40
+They just Google the PowerPoint guy.
+Janine | 49:44
+The PowerPoint guy.
+Dimo Stoychev | 49:45
+Yeah, a light at six lights.
+Janine | 49:45
+I'm hoping he should be able to do five slides, otherwise I'd be very disappointed. I think what let's...
+I know we can't do this, son. Five. Sorry, you have to close again.
+Dimo Stoychev | 50:00
+I mean, three of them are exactly the same.
+Janine | 50:01
+What do you live for? Is there a time on Thursday that it needs to be at.
+Dimo Stoychev | 50:09
+Yeah, we have a call. The call is at 04:30.
+Janine | 50:22
+The whole day?
+Dimo Stoychev | 50:23
+Yeah, I know, so I'll prepare some briefing info for that.
+Janine | 50:23
+Okay, Wednesday design, Thursday morning internal review, Thursday late morning/afternoon AMs. Okay. So, I'll let you know who's working on it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 50:46
+The call was very long, it was supposed to be an hour. I didn't think it would take the full hour. Ended up being an hour and 20 minutes. Yeah.
+Janine | 51:05
+Did you hear that Fraz is working on Supply Side West this year? Very much?
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:11
+It wasn't confirmed. Is it confirmed now?
+Janine | 51:15
+He told us I to stay on the call.
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:17
+Yeah.
+Janine | 51:18
+Yeah, he was like, "Both news probably could be working on my side." We were like, "Calm, wait, really looking forward to it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:28
+Lovely.
+Janine | 51:35
+I'll be fine. Good news is I'm off for two weeks at the end of July, and we're off for those two weeks, so that's like perfect time. For everybody, that's good.
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:47
+I're going somewhere together.
+Janine | 51:50
+No, absolutely not as far away from him as possible. In fact, I'm just going to stay home. I'm just going to stay at home and do nothing.
+Yeah, I just hide. Yeah, I'm not actually doing anything, no, but I'm off the first week by myself, so I can just have some time to myself and then let's slap and welcome Nova, is it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:07
+But nice.
+Janine | 52:09
+Nova's fair to speak. Go skill.
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:13
+Yeah, I'll be off at some point, but I'm actually just going to try to work remotely.
+Janine | 52:23
+Ope. When is that?
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:25
+I don't know yet.
+Janine | 52:27
+You're just going to be off at some some.
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:27
+Focus on? Yeah, because I want to go to Denmark.
+But I don't want to book holiday.
+Janine | 52:37
+But do you actually want to work, though.
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:41
+Yeah, it's not that bad now because my dad's there, so.
+Janine | 52:42
+Because that's no way I'll be doing that. No, absolutely not way. But I would be going away somewhere and take the time to go away somewhere and then work. I just feel like it's not... I want to do do.
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:53
+So I'll stay with my dad and it's not that bad. CA like if I work Monday Tuesday, then I'm off on Wednesday.
+Janine | 53:01
+Yeah, I suppose. God, look at you with your day off planning things. [Laughter] Well, okay, good to catch up, but I will let you know about all the things.
+Dimo Stoychev | 53:10
+Yeah, please.
+Janine | 53:21
+Yeah, I'll let you know, but yeah, Jenny should be working on that PowerPoint on Tuesday next week, and they'll let you know on that who we've got to work on the PowerPoint as the most urgent thing, joke. Thanks, bunch.
+Dimo Stoychev | 53:34
+Nice. Thank you very much.
+Janine | 53:36
+Good. See you, so bye.

+Celine Z | 01:19
+You may have seen my message just ahead of today's call.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:21
+One.
+Celine Z | 01:23
+So we thought we could use that half hour to take a closer look at where we stand with the deck, which is one of the key assets we want to work against and get across the finish line soon. There are a couple of suggestions that Ham and I added to the deck, and if let's maybe we can use that time to go over the flow and define the actions. That would be great if PDB could cover those.
+Then I think Tom and I can do the final tweaks before we get the team's input and circulate it via Treo.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:07
+Yeah, perfect.
+Celine Z | 02:07
+That would work, Well.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:09
+Yeah, that sounds good.
+Celine Z | 02:10
+Y sure.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:11
+And would you like to share your screen? Or what's the easiest way to go through it?
+Celine Z | 02:17
+Yeah. I can do that.
+Tom | 02:22
+I think we're almost there.
+Celine Z | 02:29
+Who's that? Tom? [Laughter] Okay, I will. I'm not seeing anyone.
+Tom | 02:38
+Ahead, but we can see your screen.
+Celine Z | 02:39
+Yeah, good.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:40
+Yeah. How good?
+Celine Z | 02:41
+So I think there are two or three main buckets of feedback. One is, and I think this has already started to be adjusted, the visual section and the color coding that we wanted to apply. So, there is a visual distinction between what is H and C, which is great.
+I think it's good to start with H and C, perhaps we have a prospect that we are meeting and they're completely new to the company. So, we have a bit of an introduction, which can be hidden if that's not needed but then clearly distinct. Have a second then a next chapter and say, "Okay. As of here, we deep dive into medical nutrition."
+Then the second bucket of feedback is about making sure that the recipe, and I like that it is in line with how we presented at the beginning. I think there was a discrepancy in how we introduced the approach.
+Then, have I added these numbers? Let's reflect if this is the right way to go. Then the sequences of how these are introduced afterwards. The third bucket was around healthy aging and the age-related conditions.
+If there is an opportunity to marry that a bit better with how the DS team is talking about healthy longevity right now, it appears two very separate topics, but there is an opportunity to marry both and then have a more consistent approach in maybe the visual language as well and how we talk about the solutions. There may be a customer that we approach from a DS as well as for an.
+And then perspective. So we're deploying the DSM, feminine brand and story around healthy longevity in one consistent way. I thought that was part of the briefing. I'm not sure we are seeing this completely reflected yet. Does that make sense?
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:53
+Yeah. Hopefully, we are so far and Y.
+Tom | 04:54
+Yeah. And just to build on Salline. So, apologies. Some of the things that might look a little clunky in there, but I just had a first go at trying to change some of the colors and things like that, just to give you an idea of what I had in mind in terms of that shift over to a look and feel.
+But I think obviously, you'll probably have better designers who are in a better place to really do all of that and double-check everything. I didn't go through and check all the colors matched and this and that, so.
+But I've tried to already have a go at doing that a little bit. Then I think on this one here again, it's where I had a slab and was trying to organize and link the recipe into the age-related story.
+I feel like when I went through it, the only way that it could make sense for me rather than just be either a strange add-on at the end or a strange add-on at the beginning that didn't link is I felt like it should be part of the recipe.
+And yeah, and it's therefore ultimately our story becomes a five-part story a little bit. So, we want to ideally take you through five things, but maybe in a given meeting, we're only going to focus on two or three things.
+But so I added it as the fifth element. And actually, looking at the slide now, I started to realize that the recipe side looks good, but the comment on the left doesn't really necessarily match the recipe.
+We don't really talk about insights and powered by science. And there so we might want a different comment on the left, et cetera. But, yeah, so that was it. So, I feel like probably the ad part is the bit that we probably need to think through a little bit as a priority if you go down.
+Again, what I did is I took the numbers, whoever put them in, and I tried to add them. So in theory, they should all be consistent. They should go through 1-2-3-4-5 now. There had been some bits where they were in three and things were in four, and they weren't quite in the right sequence.
+So hopefully, it goes on a numbered sequence. But when we get to this fifth bit, there are a couple of bits that I think it would be good to talk about. One is for those customers where maybe we have shared the DS work or where the regional managers are familiar with the dietary supplement story about aging.
+I think for our own internal logic, we need to... It was, I think, part of the brief. We do need to have some sort of consistency in our position on this because I think again, when it comes to our awareness campaign and our materials on our website, we need to be able to have a link between what we're saying with our left hand and what we're saying with our right hand.
+So I think when I took a first look at it and I went to the next slide, I feel like the top half of their story is actually pretty... There's some elements of that that are synergistic with what we're talking about.
+It's just how you then deliver it. They get really into the cellular causes, whereas we want to take it off more into the journeys of physical and cognitive decline and starting earlier.
+So I'm wondering whether there's a way of bridging that somehow where we can take those first four pieces as our key elements or the headlines of why aging is the insight-driven part of age-related declines to make a difference. Different final set of messages.
+They had with 567. We would have our own part, which would be about starting earlier. The only other part that I thought about. If you look at 3839, actually, it's a good point if you go down.
+Yes, I had one more go at trying to see if I could make this one work or not. I think you know the first... Yeah, the design had a really good go at this. I've tried a couple of things here. One physically first.
+So that's our main focus area, so that you know that there's an ability to be able to talk about before we're getting into Psyclopedia and Khexia. You have this muscle strength weakness concern.
+It's very likely that for the next few months and the rest of the year that that's where they'll have their new concepts. So that's the first one that we wanted to highlight. Yeah. And yeah, I just wanted to be able to...
+I think it still works, but it's an optional slide, I would say for the team if they feel like they could talk to it. I'm trying. There's probably a better way to highlight it. I just put that clunky box with the dashes on to try to show that that's our new evolved offering, which is in that space of aging nutrition.
+Yeah, that we'll be looking at focusing on. Then, as a follow-up on the next slide, I was trying to find a nice way to add a S-watt to why we focus on which is it's finding with this. So, we have internally, we have a table where we've got all these numbers, the prevalence numbers, and you know there's reasons why we're focusing on these either because they rank in when you do global research reports, they're the top concerns or they're highly prevalent.
+So I just wondered, do we have this info? I wondered if there was a way to make this somewhat relevant as for somebody to picture a customer, which is... Yeah. Muscle health is the largest patient population platform, and we have multiple ingredients that could be good potential solutions for that.
+That's why we need the concept, and that's why the concept that you're going to see features post-LB with Pepto Pro and Canola Pro and others. So, these are all setups for concepts a little bit, But.
+Celine Z | 12:58
+Yeah. This is a very rich slide. I'm not sure if this level of detail is what we want to reflect in.
+Tom | 13:08
+It certainly wasn't intended to be a slide. Yes, and the question was, "Is there a way to show a list of the concepts we had originally?" We had a portfolio overbase, and we had a slide that showed our ingredients and where they're relevant. My question is, "Is there a way to make those disease areas relevant by just showing people how big the population prevalence is for them, or that they're the number one?" We know our stuff, we know the facts behind this.
+It's not like we're here to... So all I do is... This is what I have available in terms of data. It certainly wasn't a slide layout; it was just a question, "Is there a way to do that in a nice way?
+Celine Z | 13:54
+Yeah. So, it's almost visualizing that data in an appealing manner. This, I mean, this is Market Insights, right? It shows that we're on top of the market. So, what is the team?
+So, the team has ready-to-go concepts for these conditions, right? Can we bucket that into, say, talking about the prevalence data per concept, or would you like to see this as an overview slide?
+Tom | 14:36
+I think at this point, because it's the pitch there, we're not going to get into putting concepts into the pitch deck. I don't think at this point there's still to come. Well, I'd like to at least have... At the global level, the ability to lead into it with, like you said, it's showing that we have some insights as to why.
+Then that's basically an example at the global level. Then the regions can take this, and we have regional data behind all of this, so they could take their regional version and fill it in or do that.
+But yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 15:11
+And just as a suggestion ton could this be a separate asset that's shared maybe after the pict or do you think it needs to be presented during the pitch?
+Tom | 15:23
+It could be. It could come after. I just wondered if, for each of the 12345, sometimes, yeah, we like to put in a fact, a reason, a proof point, or where possible, a fact. I just felt like we had a few facts.
+Maybe on here. To be honest, maybe the biggest fact is actually the far column, which is the estimated patient population size that we have for each of those. So maybe it's actually the table above that's got all the highlights, and we just add another thing, which has the patient population size and projected growth or something. That's all we need.
+Then maybe that's it. Yeah, that's it. Looking at it now, maybe because it's the others, the rankings and things like that we need.
+Celine Z | 16:24
+I mean, we have these nice icons here, and they kind of correlate with some of them. If we can show these estimated population sizes and the growth rate per main condition, I think this could be nice. I could see this come alive visually.
+We have access to these ingredients and unique proprietary, science-based combinations to address those. Then, more concept-focused conversations could follow. It could be a separate conversation then a separate conversation with the customer.
+But I can see this come in a pitch deck two.
+Tom | 17:25
+So.
+Celine Z | 17:27
+Sorry.
+Tom | 17:29
+No, I didn't know if that made sense to the DB or what they.
+Celine Z | 17:38
+What do you think? Jenny and Dimo?
+Dimo Stoychev | 17:41
+Yeah. Now, I think because this comes quite late into the presentation and it's a lot of information, I think we may want to look at how we can streamline it. Which you are showing the population size against the chart makes sense.
+But then if you don't match that to the solutions, I think it's potentially not giving people the conclusion if that makes sense.
+Celine Z | 18:05
+Two.
+Dimo Stoychev | 18:14
+So that's why I was thinking more. Maybe it could be a separate asset like a brochure where you can show it.
+Tom | 18:19
+Do it afterwards. I'm okay with that. I really would love to just make sure the core story is told. Once we get that approved, there's obviously can be bits that we can then add in and ask the dissent team.
+I could work up a version of a prevalence deck, and I could put in a global one with some regional ones. Your point, Dimo? Where we could send that as a follow-up. Yeah. It doesn't necessarily need to be approved as part of the final ST.
+Celine Z | 18:59
+Okay. I think that may help us move this asset a bit faster over the finish line, but we can keep that in the backpack
+Tom | 19:12
+Actually. So what could be helpful? It's just really simple stuff because you do have the design on hand. Is it if you could make that link between maybe the icons and maybe the table in an editable format so we can add a couple of columns on prevalence or something like that will at least allow us to...
+Maybe it's a placeholder for a prevalence prevalent slide that we could do. Then I can... That's it. It's just a placeholder. Then, we can insert global or regional prevalence data as applicable.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:50
+Okay. And which still want to capture the ingredients so that table.
+Tom | 19:51
+Okay. Yeah, I think that's it because I think that's the link. It allows us to talk about this broader than ever portfolio, but it makes them not just sound like a random list of ingredients. No, these are ingredients that are relevant for various different conditions.
+And it allows us to start to show you this is why these are. This is a great portfolio for age-related declines. Look how much of it is covered and let's.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:19
+How and then for each condition, we can show how prevalent it is across the global for natal in individual.
+Tom | 20:21
+And. We'll now talk to you about some concepts. And.
+Yeah, but then again, I would say you wouldn't have to worry about doing that work. We'll do that. If you just give us a template or a placehold, we'll be able to do that with the table, with the things I can.
+I'll do that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:44
+Okay, yeah, that sounds good.
+Tom | 20:44
+Please. Okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 20:50
+If we could just go back to the H-related declined story and the link to dietary supplements.
+So things slide 33, if we start from the beginning, I think the insight here stands. It's still the gap between the age expectation and health expectation, that ten-year gap. I think that insight still stands.
+But really, what it is about prevention and tar prevention strategies. Am I correct in thinking that way?
+Tom | 21:29
+Yeah. Whether it's about prevention or earlier intervention to slow the decline, it's already happening, but people are waiting until it's got so bad that it's now become a disease. So, it's actually less about prevention and more about early intervention.
+Celine Z | 21:50
+Yeah, I think the preventive health is a wording or a terminology that Philip uses every now and then. It may apply a bit more to DS, and then now we're moving into early intervention right at the point when it comes to medical nutrition again.
+Tom | 22:10
+I'm okay playing with those two concepts because customers may play with them, but they're kind of... Yeah, if you have both of them, then we can adapt and pivot to however a customer talks about it.
+But yeah, it shouldn't be just focused on prevention because that's not really the core part. It's early intervention, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:31
+Okay, yeah, that's great.
+Tom | 22:32
+Right. That's what the graphs are about, the charts are about, and the logic is that we have been preventing the really sick people we are talking about from bringing that same stuff but doing it earlier.
+So, it is really an earlier intervention story.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:48
+Hem.
+Celine Z | 22:52
+Dimo, you have the healthy longevity deck from the DS team, right? Do you guys have that on
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:04
+Yeah, I think there's a bit of a difference because that's a campaign presentation, so they didn't have to have the segment and then the campaign story in one.
+Celine Z | 23:11
+Shortm.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:17
+And think that deck is about a hundred slides, so it's quite a lot of information.
+Celine Z | 23:23
+Yes, it's huge. True.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:25
+Yeah.
+Celine Z | 23:25
+Yeah, that's true.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:27
+And because we're trying to turn that into a patch tech, we really have to pick the core elements that we want to highlight, which I think doing something like this works where we just pick the key messages. What we wanted to check here is what would be the key messages that we want to have for maybe both S and MN or what we want folks for MN then potentially link that to DS where applicable. Or is it all seven?
+But we say some are. Specifically, Yes.
+Celine Z | 24:03
+So what Tom said before, the top four really apply to a large extent to medical nutrition. It's just that the solution that we can bring to the table in the medical nutrition market is slightly different.
+Here in the medical, in the DS approach to talk about the sell cellular level approach, and they have a concept with the three elements. I think this is where we, in medical nutrition, differ.
+We're taking an age-related decline condition approach with the hero ingredients that we have available. This is where we can then make a difference. But did I think it differs then in the top three, how the solution that we bring to the table.
+Tom | 24:58
+The bottom straight.
+Celine Z | 24:59
+Yeah.
+Tom | 25:01
+So that was the relatively simple logic, which is if we could benefit from one slide for each of the top four stories or whatever, they have the key messages for the four. Then I guess the message five or six would be...
+Yeah, we have a hero ingredient portfolio ideal for early intervention, and it's about early intervention. I'm just silly between us. So I need to obviously run that story at some point past the science team and make sure that they're obviously comfortable.
+It's more about the five and six and the early intervention side. But yeah, they're the ones who gave us the charts and the slides. So yeah.
+Celine Z | 25:46
+And what we have discussed, Dimo, you may remember at some point is that we would adapt those little squares. So, it's a little bit of a design element that the DS team introduced around healthy longevity, and we could steal that and continue the story of age-related solutions in medical nutrition.
+So it becomes an agency-level signature that we can apply.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:18
+Do. We want to consider that for this section of the presentation, Y.
+Celine Z | 26:23
+It's just an idea. I mean, it's something that we have discussed in the past. You may remember, but if I think of the website, this is a pitch deck, right? I'm thinking beyond if we think of the website and on the website, we have a section that is all about age-related decline and solutions that we can bring.
+So, I wonder if healthy longevity is an agency-level topic and then how it comes alive in DS, how it comes alive in medical nutrition. Then, we would obviously adopt those little squares and then have that.
+You know.
+Tom | 27:00
+We just have to find a way to make it easy for our bosses or GMS or people who are ultimately presenting both dietary supplements and medical nutrition to a customer to be able to explain it and prevent being asked questions like, "Is this the same as that?" or "What do you know?" There are ways to make it easy to show what the links are and the bridge we have to walk. It's a little bit where the similarities are.
+So, if there's a common icon for this part where we could show it, but the separation as well is why with the color coding, I think it is important to say this is medical need, this is the MN plus way where we are now.
+That's so that needs to be not red and orange or to avoid that confusion.
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:55
+Okay. I think it's not made it into the website, but it's used across assets.
+Janine | 28:02
+Okay, I think throughout the S we removed it from the website just so that it was consistent across the website.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:03
+But, yeah, that's.
+Celine Z | 28:11
+Okay, then, no worries there, we can... It's okay, it's just an idea. I'm just looking for ways to connect it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:17
+Yeah, I mean, the colors are what's, used throughout. So that the pilot is used throughout everything.
+Celine Z | 28:24
+M yeah, although for the colors I would stick to you know what we have introduced here.
+So not too fireworky, but like having a consistent separation.
+I think that helps with the visual storytelling for the presenter.
+Tom | 28:47
+So the only way I could see if you were to want to use a similar coloring to dietary supplements would be... That's it. Where you're going there, number 16. Sorry, or maybe it's not where you're going, but on the recipe, I'm just trying to think this out loud in my head.
+If you imagine the bottom half, your customer, imagine that was a different color, maybe yellow or whatever green. If part of our recipe at the top was purple and then the dietary supplement red was our fifth element, which is age-related decline, I can kind of see that working in a couple of ways. One is it highlights it as a BL extension for us away from traditional MN so when we get there.
+And then when you show that medical nutrition chart where you try and show where we've expanded, you could maybe make it. It's gone from purple to the red. Then you're using similar color codes to the dietary supplement story, and you're using similar elements to their story. That bit.
+The only bit is you'd have to change the bottom bit because then all looks the same color. But maybe that's an idea. I could explain that logic a little bit. So, that's an idea to think about. I wasn't a big fan of
+this one of the rectangular boxes and the little circles that I could... I wasn't... I feel like there's something better we could probably do on those, but I'm not sure what it is, but sorry, that's a lot, throwing at you there in half an hour.
+Dimo Stoychev | 30:29
+No, that's fine. Yes. So, yeah, I think we can explore the color coding. It would be good to use the same color so that we make the link to Dasta supplements and that elevating to an HC level. This solution that we want to focus on. I think that would make it easier. Just from a color perspective?
+Tom | 30:53
+Thinker does. Now, there's a little devil advocate in my head saying, "Does it always add to confusion?" But I don't think so. I think we're trying to show that we're telling the same story in slightly different ways, so I would go with that.
+Yeah. Let's go with that demo.
+Celine Z | 31:16
+Jenny, do you feel comfortable working with your creative team on bringing that a step further? I think Tom and I can then do maybe a slight makeup. But I think where we need your help is with the creative part of things and the visual translation.
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:35
+Y yeah.
+Celine Z | 31:36
+And that will be great.
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:40
+I think we have enough.
+Celine Z | 31:41
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:42
+I think what would be good is if we work on the new version, then maybe we can talk through it one more time just to make sure we've captured everything.
+Celine Z | 31:53
+Sure. What will be a good timing, do you think?
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:55
+I can...
+Yeah, I can check on timing just when we have time in the studio, and then we can suggest another time to go through it.
+Celine Z | 32:05
+Okay.
+Tom | 32:06
+I hate being pushy clients and all that stuff, but I just did. And I know some of this is on us, and then there's been holidays and things, but I desperately need to get this to the countries as soon as possible.
+If there's a way we can get it into approval for the next round, that really would be great.
+Celine Z | 32:25
+So, yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:25
+Yeah, and this is the fundamental as it itself.
+Tom | 32:27
+I know you won't be down. Do that as well.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:31
+Now, it's better to do it right, isn't it?
+Tom | 32:37
+Okay, well, I can be around, you know, whenever the rest of the week.
+Celine Z | 32:41
+Me too.
+Tom | 32:43
+Okay, good.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:45
+Okay. Yup. So thank you very much.
+Tom | 32:46
+All right, thank you.
+Celine Z | 32:48
+Thank you both, thank you.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:50
+Thank you. Have a good day.
+Celine Z | 32:51
+Have a good day, thank thank.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:52
+Thanks. Bye.

+Yeah, likewise, Keenan, a meeting, a couple of back-to-back meetings, so he might... It's likely that he's going to be a little bit late joining, so we can go ahead and kick off. Great.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:48
+Yeah. Well, if you don't mind, we can record the calls for future reference if that's okay.
+Helen | 02:57
+Paul, are you in charge today?
+Paul | 03:00
+Absolutely. Yeah. Just to set the scene. So, we obviously presented back some of the findings from the survey, but alongside the traditional survey approach, we have been supporting that with a slightly different approach that we've been prototyping and working with a few different clients on, which is using AI platforms to develop, effectively,
+a predictive point of view of what audiences might think and how they might respond if we asked them a range of questions. So, we wanted to take you through today just how that worked, how we put it together, and give you a sense of some of the top line insights that actually fed into and ended up being quite useful in the project. We'll give you a view of what else is there in the data and what have you in the background.
+But obviously, because it was done as added value to the side of the project, we haven't gone into the full depths of a full research debrief that we might otherwise do. And I then just finished by getting your thoughts.
+And getting a sense of a couple of different ways that we might be able to build on what we've done and apply some of the findings.
+Helen | 04:33
+So I was just going to say, sorry, I'm not going to keep on interrupting you. I'm really sorry. I was just going to say.
+Elizabeth | 04:40
+Be in charge.
+Helen | 04:41
+Sorry. [Laughter] Well, I'll let you take over.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:42
+[Laughter].
+Helen | 04:44
+I'm I'll let you take I was just going to say. I think we did touch on this last time, but just to reiterate that. So, we used it in two ways, didn't we? We used the personas that we'd built to help the thinking on developing the questions for the questionnaire.
+Then, it's just been useful to have Paul working on the personas in the background as added value, and then for me to run hypotheses past him and discuss things with him. So, I think, for example, that idea of... I think we got to a point in the project where one of the questions that was starting to emerge was, "Does our audience actually accept that we need to find a way to live with plastic?" Do you know what I mean? Actually, there is a rational agreement there. We just need to find a way to live with it.
+So, the synthetic research has been really helpful, I think, in predictive research in helping to explore and develop thinking as well. Right, that's it. I'm not going to say anything else now until the end.
+Paul | 05:53
+Please do dive in, though. Everybody, including Alan, if I'm talking to you, if there's anything that's not clear or what have you, because I know some of this is different approaches and new stuff.
+So, it's probably better if we stop as we go if there's a question, just to make sure that everything is clear rather than me rattling on ahead. So I'm going to share my screen and go through a few slides that we've prepared.
+A lot of this, even though we didn't talk about it in the last presentation, a lot of this was included in the slides. But as we said, basically, the last meeting was to talk about the part on the right, the living survey, which was the multi-market 500-person panel. This is to talk about the part on the left and what we did to work with this. We work from the information that we got from you and from stakeholder conversations and built out from that. We complemented it with some of the desk research that we've done and use that to identify some key audiences. Then we used real-world examples.
+So we actually took... Well, tell you what, actually, I'm better talking to this to the next slide, so, sorry, I didn't. So we use 20 real-world examples to identify different audiences for CPG, for drinks, and for co-packaging.
+We built a different audience for consumer package goods, an audience for drinks, and an audience for co-packaging. One of the things we wanted to do was get a sense of whether there were different attitudes, different feelings from the verticals and the way we put those audiences together.
+So for CPG, we took Unilever and Procter & Gamble, and we took the key job titles and identified the real people who held those jobs in the key markets we were talking about. So, people who held the right kind of product marketing, logistics, procurement roles either in the UK, in the Netherlands, in Germany, in those key markets for those companies.
+We did the same for Diageo and AB InBev for drinks, and we used a Pepsico and Mars for co-packaging. So we took real people's profiles. If we'd been working with you, obviously, we'd have honed and refined that list and made sure that they were the ideal people.
+If you wanted to get 20 people to do a set of stakeholder interviews, who would your wish list be? But in the absence of that, we worked to our best understanding based on the job titles, etc.
+Then, from those profiles, the engine builds out and says, "Okay, well, this is what our synthesis of all the big data around what people like that are working in CPG have been talking about."
+I've said has been written about them, their footprint online. Same for drinks and same for CPG. Then, from that, it synthesizes the engine, synthesizes and creates some personas to represent that group of people, that overall audience.
+When we then ask it questions, when we then interrogate it, it predicts and models what the response from your audience would be. So, the best way to think about it is not quite us using AI to replicate research.
+It's more about using AI to give you a clear representation of what your audience would respond like if they spoke through one spokesperson, if they spoke through one kind of mouthpiece, and bringing all that together and synthesizing that together. We then used some interviews in the areas we looked at some contextual, some enroll factors.
+So, it was almost like a field visit type ethnography. The engine creates based on our objectives to initial interview scenarios. One is a one-on-one session in their office, and another is more of seeing how they operate in a meeting or a workshop.
+That helps give us a bit of a sense of the group dynamic around some of the roles. I think somebody's joining. Just let me let Keenan in. We looked specifically at the decision-making process, both the groups of people involved and what the different motivations, different barriers and challenges, different priorities are for the people within that group and how that process comes together and how it's organized. We asked some specific questions comparing fiber and plastics and how they felt about the two.
+I think that was one of the areas that was really helpful for us getting our heads around and clarifying this fact that it's not necessarily a head-to-head fight. It's more about this circular role of if plastics are necessary, then how are plastics best kept out of the environment, kept in circulation, kept in use, to minimize their impacts?
+I think that was a helpful viewpoint that then fed into the surveys to get a sense of how current approaches are working, et cetera. I'll give you an idea of what they look like. This is the process in action.
+I've already talked to this about how we put things together, how we built them, and what have you, but this is just an example of what some of the personas look like. So, this is your panel of four CPG personas.
+We've defined their ages, defined their roles, and defined their locations. That spider chart at the top is the Ocean Framework. It's a psychology framework that comes from academic research.
+It's quite a useful thing because it's common currency across some different platforms and approaches that we can blend together. What that does is it gives a bit of the humanity and a bit of the individual variation in the responses. This is what stops us just getting four responses back that are identical because each of them is given a slightly different personality in terms of their openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism.
+We can tinker with that a bit as we build. Then, the other element is the five final statements, down at the bottom. So, their process for evaluating sustainability, their approach to cross-functional decision making, their technical expertise, the way they manage relationships with stakeholders, and their point of view on the circular economy are all factors that, based on the information we fed into the engine and based on the objectives, we had identified as key dimensions. At any point in the build, we could have said, "No, one of those factors is wrong." We could have rejected it, we could have changed it for something else. We could have added to the five equally. Once we're happy with the five, we can still then tailor where people sit on those dimensions.
+So I could have said that, the second one, Dr O'Connor, rather than having high engagement with her diverse teams who had low levels of engagement and preferred to be autonomous. We could basically use that to try and make sure that across this panel, we are getting a good variation of viewpoints on the factors that matter.
+Then once we're happy with those, we lock them in. So that's kind of what a persona looks like, and that's how we get different points of view from them. We've got a similar panel for drinks, we got a similar panel for COPAC, yes, do.
+Dimo Stoychev | 15:07
+Sorry, Paul. Just to summarize, each one of these personas is essentially an amalgamation of representative personas within that market.
+Paul | 15:19
+Yes, absolutely. So each of these is like a spokesperson or a mouthpiece, the viewpoint of the whole audience.
+Helen | 15:29
+Paul and it's probably I'm sure other people might know this already, but I was quite surprised just in terms of the accuracy. So when you think of... I think it's when you described... We take the LinkedIn profiles of real people, and then the AI is... It is essentially looking at the equivalent of that person's digital footprint across millions of different data points, and therefore it's incredibly accurate in terms of a persona.
+Paul | 16:01
+Yes. So it's kind of... I mean, we're talking about European markets, we're talking about relatively discrete roles, but it takes those twenty that we feed in. It extrapolates out to the thousands in each market in similar types of companies. It takes their whole digital footprint and then synthesizes it back down to these four spokespeople who will represent a reflective, a robust, but quite a rich view back to us of how they think as a whole.
+It's really helpful. I mean, particularly in a situation like this, it would have been quite a costly exercise to try and pull together these types of stakeholders, particularly across four or five markets and particularly across different verticals.
+So yeah, that quite quickly would have started to scale up. Whereas with a tool like this, it allows us to get quite granular, but to make that work in a feasible way and to get the feedback quite quickly.
+Typically, the build phase for something like this would take about a week, then the infield phase takes a couple of weeks, and then we're writing a report. So you're getting a level of insight that otherwise would be quite challenging to gather, but equally, you're doing it on a timeframe that is probably more effective and more agile than standard research approaches anyway.
+Helen | 17:36
+And. just to... Because obviously, you've got a lot of experience in doing this. Now, I think probably it's important to understand as well, isn't it? That there's a degree to which you scrutinize these.
+We make sure that... Because it's not a question of, "We've got these personas. Let's just see what they have to say." We still need that level of human analysis, human insight, don't we? To interpret and analyze and make sure that they feel so right.
+Paul | 18:06
+So both in the build phase and in the research and analysis phase, we are using our own expertise, not just as researchers but as strategists. So we're making sure from a research point of view that we've got the right people and that they're accurate and that the feedback is representative.
+We've got some built-in tech checks and balances. We've got manual checks and balances we use for that. But equally, a big part of what we're doing is taking the output and actually pulling the themes, pulling the nuggets out of it and pulling the things out of it that are going to make a strategic difference for you.
+So we're trying to find those things that could actually help impact a decision, help you do something differently. So that idea of potentially... Yeah, rather than going head-to-head with fiber, looking at the circular approach and the in-use approach is a better area to focus on.
+I think there are a couple of findings that I'm going to highlight that hopefully will show an influence on how you could speak. I've got one final thing before I get in. So this is just an example of that. Dimo asked us to pull up and give you a bit of a snapshot. He was asking questions around ERP.
+So literally, we put in the prompt that you can see at the top left. "How do you and your peers in similar roles? ERP, not your P." ERP is a challenge, an opportunity, a better base. How do your company and colleagues view it, and what are you planning to do about it now in an interview? This would be the starting point. We would then continue, and we would probe into some of the things that I said.
+But you can already hopefully see the depth of the response and the natural language and the humanity of the response that comes through. Obviously, the response itself starts to talk about how it's both a challenge and an opportunity, how it's already starting to impact design philosophy, how it's having a good benefit in accelerating certain areas of innovation.
+But equally, it's introducing challenges around costs and what have you that go in line with compliance. What I haven't shown on this chart is that we asked this question to everybody in that panel.
+So we have four different versions of this that came back, which allowed me to start to compare some of the reactions from the UK versus other markets, et cetera. But hopefully, this starts to give you a sense of what the transcript of these conversations can start to look like and a bit of the depth that they can go into.
+But here's.
+Helen | 21:13
+A subclever. It's it's got lots of potential, hasn't it? I mean, it's slightly terrifying, but yeah, it's great.
+Paul | 21:20
+It's exciting. I think it's exciting. We have to be very clear about what it isn't. We have to be very clear about using it in the right way. Yeah, but I think it's exciting. I think the thing for me is it's slightly terrifying. The number of B2B marketers at the moment who are answering surveys to say that they are missing data points and that they are having to operate without as much information on their audiences as they would like.
+I think that's where this is fantastic. It's not. The way we use it is the best way to use it. We used it to complement human research, and we used it to work together and help us shape our human research and get more out of that research by honing the questions we asked rather than just standing alone.
+I think what it's greater is where it would be hard to do that research. It fills in the blanks and where you can complement together rather than spending the first few questions of your survey or rather than spending the first half hour of your stakeholder interview
+covering off the basics and checking some of the fundamentals. Well, we've got the fundamentals from this. We can very quickly zero in on some of the more interesting hypotheses and nuggets that you want to dig into,
+and that means we can get more out of the surveys and the traditional human research that we conduct. This is just a summary slide, just outlining the type of feedback we got and how it allowed us to do in terms of exploring different hypotheses
+and therefore some of the elements that came to you as recommendations. We'd already used this to give us a higher degree of confidence in what we were talking about. It allowed us to dig deeper and just explore certain challenges.
+It's not just rational feedback that we get. Some of it can be quite emotional, some of it can be quite intangible. I'm going to pull out three key elements that speak to that.
+The first one was identifying a tension in the feedback between who they are as people and a lot of the personas and therefore the kind of audiences that sit behind them. They are very passionate about sustainability.
+Particularly those in sustainability roles got into it because they want to make that difference, they want to do the right thing. But then the cultures that they find themselves in and the multi-stakeholder world of corporate business and the limitations of the supply chain and contingent. They are
+essentially becoming quite politician-like, becoming a little bit... Yeah, it's a lot more about stakeholder management and guidance and not necessarily about putting the best solution in place, but perhaps more about trying to bring together solutions that are practical and make those little baby steps, those little incremental steps when their gut says that they'd like to do more.
+Again, I think there's a really nice tonal bit of guidance there in terms of how you can speak to those stakeholders around their core instincts and support them.
+Help guide them around getting things done. I think there's potentially a communications element there. Because if they are naturally managing the multi-stakeholder decision process by doing what the guys at Toyota call it, a process called nemawashi, which is literally going around the roots.
+What that means is the decisions aren't made in meetings. It's about those kind of corridor conversations and it's about those kind of individual actions. And then when everybody comes together, the decisions are almost already made.
+I think there's a map to that, and that almost ABM-style multi-stakeholder communication where, if account groups are dealt with by making contact and having communication with each of those stakeholders in turn in a slightly tailored way, then that makes it a lot more successful to actually get good passage through the buying group.
+Because you've covered off the different agendas, and by the time those conversations are happening, they're being supported by the comms and the information that you've put out there. So, I think that supportive element to things goes beyond the rational and recognizes the tension and frustration that you can play into.
+I think the second element, and we've already touched on this and talked about it a bit, is that there is an extent to which there is no rational argument that will work against fiber. We talked last time about fiber.
+Yeah, not just emotionally, but actually, quite literally, in a tactile sense, it feels more natural. Therefore, whatever rational case you've got to make, it's really hard to overcome those tactile, emotional, and really intuitive senses of fiber and having an advantage.
+But rather than getting into a head-to-head battle, if you rather acknowledge the fact that, well, that's true, but plastic is absolutely still necessary, particularly in the way it performs, has significant advantages.
+So, the discussion shouldn't be about plastic versus fiber. The discussion should be about the best way to use plastic, and particularly the best circular way to use plastic and keep it in use and therefore stop it from having any of the negative impacts that they associate with it.
+I think that closed the loop type language approach came from this reframing and this type of thinking. And hopefully that was something that then got supported through the survey feedback and what have you.
+I think it's been seen in the work.
+Helen | 28:03
+I think it's something that you talked about Keenan as well and in your stakeholder interview. I think this is how the predictive interviews are just another building block in the strategic thinking because you were saying, actually, one of the things to talk about when you say to customers
+is that they've got their barriers or potential customers. If you want to care about the environment, then actually, the best thing you can do is keep the plastic in the system. So bit by bit, from our discussions, our discussions with stakeholders, our discussions in the predictive research, we started to get to that strategy, which is the convention is getting plastic out of the system.
+But we can have a different message if we go out and basically say to people, actually, if you care, you want to keep it in the system. So we're moving from it being a very clear strategic point of development there.
+I just find it fascinating that these are all quotes directly from those personas.
+Paul | 29:09
+Yeah. All the language that came out in those kinds of transcripts. So, I wouldn't necessarily use them in quite the same way that I'd use the datums from an interview, but I think again, they're a great way to show it's not just about the substance, but it's actually about how it gets expressed.
+That's really important. Again, we know in a world of optimizing for AI and optimizing for chat that actually, the language we use to align with the language of the audience is really important in visibility and having content getting used in answers and all that kind of thing.
+So, it becomes actually, excuse the part. It becomes quite a circular umircular benefit.
+Helen | 29:55
+That is terrible, Paul. No more poetry.
+Paul | 29:58
+It's late in the afternoon. The third kind of insight that I was going to talk about. This is one that I think, again, hopefully, is really powerful and gives you an opportunity to stand out. We were asked to look at and explore misconceptions, and one of the first things we found was that there wasn't as much misconception from the professionals as you might have expected. The levels of understanding and the levels of education were actually quite reasonable. There are misconceptions from a consumer point of view, and those then, unfortunately, do lead companies to make decisions that are PR-led rather than rationally led.
+But the big misconception, the big misunderstanding is the way the category, the way you know your peers and your competitors are talking to prospects. Because a lot of the conversation is around the destination and around the advantage that recycled plastics are going to have once you've got to that point of having them in use.
+But the real challenge a lot of companies are dealing with is actually it's that initial hurdle of getting to the point where they're in use. So, it's not that ongoing proof of benefit and demonstration that needs to be articulated.
+It's the transition that is the real challenge that needs to be overcome. The way we've expressed that here is that you've effectively got a CAPEX problem that's being met with OPEX answers or OP messaging.
+That's a bit of a mismatch at the moment. I think there's a real opportunity within to stand out from the category narrative and to stand out from the category messaging by understanding and being sensitive to that.
+Then, articulate solutions that are perhaps a little bit or that are not entirely product-focused but that are a bit about system solutions and how you help people make that change through.
+I think that could be a degree of understanding and empathy that would help the messages land a lot more strongly and b actually help you get through a lot of the objections that come from the buying group a lot more readily.
+So, this, I think, was a really interesting refraining. Certainly for me, it was a different way than I'd been thinking about it kind of going into these. And let's see how you raised your hand.
+Helen | 32:47
+Yeah, Paul.
+Alysia | 32:48
+This is great, and I completely agree with this. So when we're looking at if someone's thinking about switching to PAC Tech but they already have their whole system in paperboard where they've already invested a million plus dollars on that line. Yet something makes them want to go back to PAC Tech.
+It's hard to get them to switch and then taking them offline for a certain amount of days. So, how can we lean into this? How can we create content where it can help us set ourselves up and be in that role as an expert?
+Because I feel like right now at PAC Tech, we don't really have an expert in that area of that transition. So, would it be leaning into partnerships? I know Elizabeth has talked about linking up with integrators or something in that sense where we can have that almost consulting expert leveraging that somehow on our team and on our side.
+Paul | 33:42
+I think leaning into partnerships is a really interesting space. I think thinking about the sales and conversion process as almost a mini consultation as much as a conversion process becomes really interesting.
+If you can even just through your materials acknowledge this challenge, then you position yourselves as the partner who's going to help through the scoping and the sales through that definition. You are going to help them navigate it and find the right answer.
+I think that automatically positions you as more expert and positions you as somebody who will be easier to deal with through the transition and through the implementation. Now, it may be as well that this is an area where genuinely your competitors haven't recognized and haven't developed expertise to the extent that they would like.
+So, it may be an opportunity for a genuine competitive advantage. You know, if you do have expert consultants and what have you that can be leveraged as a point of difference that in itself can become a message for you from a corporate point of view just as much as you from a product point of view.
+I think even having materials that more explicitly acknowledge it and demonstrate that empathy and demonstrate that understanding of the challenges they face will mean that you're going into sales meetings with a much more of an advantage because you're being seen by the prospects to understand their needs better.
+Helen | 35:24
+Yeah. Keenan, how does that fit in because I know obviously you have a very impressive command of the arguments and are able to offer a very rational, considered approach with customers. Is that something that you talk about already? How do you tackle it at the moment? Does that ring true or.
+Keenan | 35:48
+Yeah, I think this is just a fascinating topic. I'm just running through different scenarios right now, but I think what we've led with in the past is we always try to highlight our own product and the values of our own product without diminishing a competitor because we don't want to get into a situation where we have a customer that's defensive, or it seems like we're just... We don't want to pitch negatively, right?
+Yeah, but so normally what we do is when there is an issue, we wait for the customer to bring up that issue, whether it's around fiber, "Hey, what about fiber?" Then we have to be educated in a way that they don't put their guards up.
+That's non-controversial, and so there's a fine line between it. I think we've done a good job, and I think I'm passionate about it. I think the intrinsic passion for a product shows through that we're not just pitching something that we know is bad. We're pitching something that we believe is good, and I think that helps. There's that emotional aspect.
+But I think what you're saying, Paul, is it's better to be more empathetic and aware of the issue at the outset of the conversation. So I'm trying to figure out how to balance that: how forward do we want to be with acknowledging it while managing the risk of opening the door to another conversation that they might have not been aware of in the first place.
+Paul | 37:12
+I think... As you know, there is a lot to be said for being able to demonstrate empathy through a sales process and just showing that you get them, you get their challenges, you get... It's all well and good having a product that's 20% better,
+but if we can't get it done, if we can't get it delivered, it's never going to get the chance to show that it's 20% better. So, if you are more able than your competitors to actually help them get it done and help make that transition, then that is worth as much as a technical advantage.
+I think generally, the confidence to raise issues suggests that you are confident you have better answers to those issues than your competitors. Well, I don't know that that's necessarily true. It may be that, actually, it's a conundrum for everybody, but behaving like that is generally a good thing.
+So, I think this is... I found this a fascinating area when we dug into it. I absolutely hadn't thought about this, but again, it was something that came up through the transcripts, came up through the feedback and elements like systems thinking and what have you.
+Phrases like that... I think I see that a lot when I'm researching consultancy projects and consultancy areas, and you see it a lot in it solutions and what have you.
+There is a direct map to... Well, the technical side of it is only one part of it. But actually, for a lot of projects, the bigger challenge is, "Are you going to be the best partner to work with to get me where I want to go?
+Keenan | 38:49
+Well, I think you're... This is totally alone. I remember last year we were thrown around the term. We want the sales team to become more of an expert consultant, and this is exactly aligned with it.
+So I think the more that we can position ourselves in.
+Paul | 39:03
+So this suggests that at scale, your audience are asking for that or would be asking for that if interviewed in front of them, interviewing them. That's what's great about this. I think that hopefully, this discussion is a good example of the power of this inaction. I'm not saying that what I'm telling you is the definitive truth, but it formed a hypothesis that I've raised and now we're talking about it. It seems to be chiming a chord.
+I think that that's the best way it works, from a big data, robust point of view. It throws up those nuggets that we can then dig into and explore and see whether they have that potential. I think that's great because often, having these conversations at scale with humans would be challenging.
+So those are the three areas that we wanted to bring to life and showcase. It was done as an added value. It was done as a proof of concept. So there's a lot more that we haven't necessarily written up in a full research debrief way.
+We looked at, as I said, the decision-making process and the different stakeholders within that and the different priorities, say of the C-suite compared to operations, compared to procurement, marketing.
+So there are a number of different aspects we had there about. Well, what are their motivations? What are their barriers? What are their challenges? And then that role on the right of the sustainability stakeholder is kind of the broker and the mediator and the translator, bringing the agendas together. We haven't mapped that out, though.
+Equally, there are a number of other things. We used the personas to validate a point of view on the questions around what proportion of materials are recyclable versus recycled versus actually getting returned by consumers and reused in packaged goods. You're 85%, 35%, 15%. That was a really good validation point for us because it tied with what we were being told by Dimo about what the industry standard numbers are. It chimed quite closely with what we got back from the survey once we conducted the survey.
+So that was a great point of comparison. We were able to dig a little bit into complex narratives versus simple narratives. It's actually not about fiber having simple narratives, it's about fiber having intuitive narratives. We were able to look at the vertical differences, and while they were minimal for drinks and CPG, the idea of copacking because they operate with multiple producers across multiple verticals was not necessarily about being best in class, but it was about being good enough to keep their breadth of clients happy.
+So that's a different kind. That's what I mean by satisfying. It's a human tendency that we go for what we are most confident will be good enough rather than necessarily what we think is best.
+I think that was a real difference between the way the producers thought versus the circular binary. We've talked about it. The fiber being indelibly natural. We've talked about in circulation meaning out of the environment as a nice way again of slightly reframing that way we thought about how plastics could be good.
+There were a couple of other really tactical things as well. A mention of moments around point of purchase and moments around point of disposal as being environments where you could actually stick a visible signpost for the value that you add as being communications opportunities. The fact that even when we were talking to respondents who weren't housed in Germany, all the pilot programs that were referenced or mentioned in any of the interviews were always in Germany, which suggested to us that the data, for some reason, either had a cultural difference, a regulatory difference, or a technical difference.
+But it helped us flag that potentially, if you're looking for a pilot that is either well set up or a very receptive market to work in.
+Helen | 43:38
+But I think, Paul, that what was interesting there was that was reflected in our desk research. So, the additional piece that we did, basically, into consumer buying behaviors in the different markets,
+Germany is an educated market, but they have a scheme in place where you get money back on bottles returned, et cetera. So, they're quite proactive, practically proactive, I feel. But again, this is good, isn't it?
+Because it just lends weight to the argument in terms of the selected markets.
+Paul | 44:12
+Absolutely. The final point, which I just wanted to dwell on for a moment because I think there is a fascinating little conundrum hidden in here. It ties into a question that Dimo asked me when we first started talking about it, which was around the idea of HDP being data-poor. Now, what I mean by that is there were occasions when we asked questions around HDP, and the interview pivoted to a different type of plastic.
+That suggests that, well, the question that Dimo rightly asked was, "Does that mean that the audience is less educated about HDP compared to the plastics, or does it mean that the LMS are struggling to access data?" My response would be in a world where 83% of journeys and vendor research are kicked off within a chat engine of some form, and in a world where more than 60% of the searches are zero-click,
+and I think the stat is 52% of B2B buyers are using chat engines to cut the RFP phase out of their procurement process. It's the same thing, but it's certainly because the interviewees are a synthesis of the way GPTs and LMS view the audience. They're definitely reflective of if they were struggling to find as much information on HTPE as they could find on other types of plastic, that's going to be reflective of the information that your audiences are being served when they try and look.
+So I think there's a really interesting content and education opportunity here, but an optimization opportunity to make sure that what you have out there is visible through what is increasingly the main and first journey to market.
+So that is important today, but that's going to be mega important in the next 18 months to two years.
+Helen | 46:21
+So sorry, Paul, just I was super clear on that. I'm just asking for myself because I am not sure. But does that mean, in super simple terms, what does that mean? From the point of view of the question that Dimo asked.
+Paul | 46:36
+There is an education job to be done around HDPE specifically compared to other plastics, but a big part of that education job is making sure that the content is created, structured, and placed in such a way that the chat engines that are increasingly gatekeeping the way people get information.
+Yeah. Are giving absolute visibility to what you want. As they summarize, they're not mangling. It's... Yeah, the content is created in such a way that it comes out the other side of the synthesis still looking like what you want it to look like.
+People are seeing it and getting the citation. So we are getting now into the discipline of generative engine optimization. But I think it's absolutely something to think about, particularly if you want to have a disproportionate voice in this conversation.
+Helen | 47:38
+But does it mean that, does it specifically mean that our potential customers or PakTech potential customers aren't searching for the term HDPE? They don't... They're less familiar with it, or they're not familiar enough with it, or what's the.
+Paul | 47:54
+I were well without having done a full audit on this. On the queries people use, I would imagine the initial search is more intent-based, so it's more about the benefits and the type of solution they're looking for.
+Yeah, follow-up searches might go into the depth of comparing different types of plastic against those objectives. But either way, having more and better structured information out there on HDPE that will then help that be more visible in comparison to different types of plastics will only be helpful.
+Being the company that leads that will then, by association, position you as a stronger leader in the HDPE area of solutions. Yes, if that makes sense.
+Helen | 48:46
+Yeah. It's just that we said that we've said and we talked about the fact that they're an educated audience. So I guess.
+Paul | 48:52
+They are educated, but they found it easier to answer questions about some of the other plastic types. So when we said educated, it was no problem getting back information about the benefits and the circumstances where plastic is a better solution than fiber.
+You know some of those, right? All of that was playing back this kind of misconception that plastics should be eradicated. Totally. That wasn't what was coming through. They understood. But then when you really try and fine-tune as to which plastics for what and for when, that's when you start to have less information. Or it appears that there may be less information around about HDPE versus PET and other things.
+Helen | 49:40
+It's so interesting, isn't it? Because it's. It's that they are learning it. You know, the audience is learning as they go in terms of they got to the stage whereby they realized that Ashle it's not about banning all PAS decks.
+And actually they've then got what stage on from that we can live sustainably with plastics. But then potentially there is still an education job to be done around.
+Paul | 50:03
+Yeah, and I think that would be reflected in real life. You will get people who have... Yeah, they're the point person on the decision. So, they've done that research journey, and they've gone into the depth.
+Then what is the average B2B buying group these days? Eleven people. Of those eleven people, the chances that any more than three of them really know what we're talking about... Yeah, pretty slim.
+Yeah, and I think that's the thing we often don't do enough of. We don't do enough to communicate with the people who are empowered to say no and can block a sale. We often spend a little bit too much time trying to positively get a sale from the three decision-makers.
+The three shape people at the coalface who are shaping it, but their colleagues can put a block on. If you haven't removed those barriers, I think that's something that B2 often overlooks a little bit.
+Helen | 50:56
+Elizabeth, did you want to say something? Sorry.
+Elizabeth | 50:58
+No, just that we found saying what the... The business level versus the consumer level. Most likely, the business level understands what an HDP E is, but when you get to the consumer, that's where the education is.
+Yeah. So, that just reflects a parallel with what we were finding about the misconceptions.
+Paul | 51:19
+Absolutely. B so that's pretty much the final slide. I mean, as I said, there's loads more sitting behind it, but I think what I want to do is we've got about ten minutes left, so I'll pause for questions and thoughts there. We do have a slide on directions. We could start to take some of this,
+but I think firstly, I really would just like to get your perspective on what I've just shown you. Given that it was done as an added value, it was done without your involvement, which is not typically how we'd run a project.
+It was great to see, nevertheless, we got into some interesting spaces.
+Elizabeth | 51:59
+Yeah, well done. As always, I feel like there are some really interesting insights that you uncovered, especially around selling system solutions versus materials. I love that, and I think there's a lot we can uncover there.
+As you're building these out, laying the foundation for the ICPS, I think that's really important. Are you thinking of building individual GPTs based on that, that we can just query some chats for eight.
+Paul | 52:36
+So What we tend to do, and I think this is one of the areas of potential next steps. I know you have personas, and they're probably relatively light touch. One of the things that we could do with this is really help you refine and go into a lot more detail around who those personas are and bring those to life for you.
+Once they're created, they're there. They're yours. The standard model is there's a bit of a build cost, but then there's a per-survey cost, if you like.
+That can be one-off, it can be ad hoc, or it could even be... Well, what we want to do is set it up like a quarterly panel and keep going. Yeah, keep going back. Then, absolutely, once we create these things, they're there. They are proprietary for you.
+No other company would have anything the same. They're always available either for a quick question or an in-depth interview type of thing. I tell you what, look, I will just go through.
+So, there are a couple there. There were some obvious areas of extension for us. What you just touched on is the third one. It's that absolutely, we could build this out, we could use it to refine your personas, and then we could have it there as that ongoing panel for you that you can either dip into ad hoc or we could have something a bit more structured in place.
+I think even before we get to that, there are some simpler things that we can do. This was done as an added value exercise, but if there are particular things you'd like to focus on and particular questions, we could do it a bit more formally and just simply go deeper into what's already been done. We looked at Europe, but we could extend this approach to the US market.
+It might be that because of the commercials of the company, the ROI on that makes more immediate sense than a European focus. The final area that we touched on with the discussion around HDP is the idea of generative engine optimization.
+One of the great things about this approach is, yes, it's a brilliant lens on your audience, but very literally, it is your audience as the GPTs see them. So, if we're looking at how best to optimize for ChatGPT, for Claude, for Perplexity, for Gemini, for Google AI mode, this is a really rich lens on the intent and the language that would help be part of that optimization.
+We actually have other audit and benchmarking tools that can feed into that. I think one of the things that could be really interesting for you would be to try and find ways to give you a disproportionately loud voice within that engine-guided search journey.
+So, three different areas there. As I say that, the third one is absolutely in tune with the question you just asked.
+Elizabeth | 55:58
+Yeah, and absolutely. I was already thinking, how can we bring this to the US to our domestic market? Yeah.
+Helen | 56:07
+Ian or Alicia, have you got any questions in terms of the content or potential applications?
+Alysia | 56:21
+So much is sitting in there. I'm sorry. There's so much going on in my head. It was very informative and just so cool that you guys are leaning into AI and just really embracing it. I think that's so amazing to see and just makes me know we're in really good hands.
+But, yeah, I think I just need to soak it in and then I can get back to you.
+Helen | 56:43
+But. Yeah.
+Keenan | 56:49
+So some of my initial thoughts are that I won the script. I think it was a few slides back, but basically, the script that was put out. I was trying to read as much as possible while you were on that slide.
+Paul | 57:00
+I'd love to examine the slides series so you'll be able to read that properly.
+Keenan | 57:05
+I is really fascinating. It's freaky, but it's amazing how powerful this is and how accurate it is. We see it every day, but it's amazing. With that said, my eyes are geared a lot towards the LAM market and to see if you know what those are because the purchasing behavior and buying behavior within the Latan market is vastly different to what I've seen in the EU, US, and Canada. It's just its own unique...
+The countries within LAM operate somewhat similarly across the country. So, there's similar behavior there. Then, within the EU right now, we have two agents in the UK, we have one based in Germany. We just brought on another distributor in Spain.
+I'm trying to look at how they all have different missions, different objectives, different markets, and that they're pitching our handles for. It would be interesting to see how I can hone in and provide these agents, these resources, more resources like this to better target them.
+This is fascinating stuff. It's just got my mind going in a thousand directions right now. And so.
+Paul | 58:24
+And are different ways that we could address that here as well. So we could set up a Latam panel, and we could have five people within that panel, each of whom is a synthesis of a particular market. Do you want to focus on... Or if you really think the differences will be quite deep and quite rich, we could build a panel for different markets. We could build a Brazil-specific panel or whatever.
+I think one of the things that's fascinating about this is doing that type of granular research at scale would be really difficult and actually very cost prohibitive. Quite quickly, if you wanted to do five Latin markets for EU markets, the USA, a couple of eight. Suddenly, you're in a six-figure piece of research very quickly. Whereas we can give you a granular view in a far more practical way.
+As you've seen, it's pretty rigorous.
+Helen | 59:33
+Yeah, there's potential.
+Keenan | 59:36
+There's are loads of potential, I think, but it would be interesting to see how granular we can get with the current agents that we have in the market as they're getting their feet under the...
+The more resources, the more clarity I can provide on what the environment looks like, the more that learning curve will be significantly cut for them as well.
+Paul | 59:57
+Yeah. Yeah.
+Helen | 59:58
+Because I think one of the benefits of all the technology and the insight, well, not insight, but the information that AI provides is that there's so much potential there. But it's exactly as you said, it's about how you use it because you don't want to get to a situation where it's information overload. It always needs to be about providing a clear path to actionable, insightful strategies, essentially.
+I think that's what we're aiming to do here, isn't it? As.
+Paul | 01:00:33
+And as with any research, you don't just take it unquestioningly. You know, you and I think that's part of the value of having us as researchers and strategists involved, that we are synthesizing that for you, summarizing and saying, "Well, we think these are the important bits, we verified them."
+This is what we're pretty confident they mean for you.
+Helen | 01:00:55
+Yeah. Did just like the idea of a sales person interacting with the persons as well. Sorry, Ka, what are we going no.
+Keenan | 01:01:07
+I was just going to hit on the topic that we were discussing around HDP data being data poor because... You know, I'm wondering if a key stakeholder that maybe we... We started to dip more into policy in these recent years.
+But if we don't have buy-in from the reprocessors on the value of the material in the first place, then it becomes a gatekeeper for the entire conversation, it becomes a block for the entirety of a conversation. The idea of circularity and being... It being that we are HDP E data poor. Or at least that's the theory right now. It might show that we need to start educating these reprocessors a bit more because they might be champions for what we're trying to do in the market as well. More so than we're currently doing.
+But it was just the thought that... We shouldn't just be tackling our customer base. But every player anyway.
+Paul | 01:02:04
+Yeah, every touch.
+Helen | 01:02:06
+Yeah, it's a good point, very good point. Thank you, Paul.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:02:11
+And we are at the hour. So, two minutes over. I just wanted to say that there's no immediate need to do anything with this information. We have a baseline that's built and available, so that's something that we can use in the future. There are some ideas that both shared for how we can take this forward.
+But we'll send the information, and I think what will be helpful is if there are any specific challenges where this might help, then we can have a follow-up and discuss it. I think that would be the best way to take it.
+Helen | 01:02:43
+Yeah, and obviously, if there are any more questions or points for discussion once you've had time to digest that, let us know.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:02:44
+But we have a great starting point.
+Elizabeth | 01:02:54
+Yeah. Dimo, can you let us know what it would look like to bring that on here in the US, and then for Keenan's ass, for Latan America.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:03:03
+Yeah. We can connect.
+Paul | 01:03:06
+Could you give us a little bit of a scope to work through around that? Because it builds per audience.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:03:13
+Yeah, that's a good point.
+Paul | 01:03:15
+Per audience might mean different job functions, or per audience might mean different categories and verticals, as in this case, or per audience might mean per market.
+While we can give you an idea of the building block, we can give you the scalable cost so that you would be able to work it out. If you've got a bit of a scope for us to work through, we can just help make that bit easier and clearer for you, for sure.
+Elizabeth | 01:03:41
+Makes sense.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:03:41
+Maybe we can prepare a few questions, and we can share that with Elizabeth and develop the scope.
+Elizabeth | 01:03:47
+Yeah, that's perfect.
+Helen | 01:03:48
+Cool and interesting stuff. Thank you very much, Paul. I let you present the whole thing without interrupting.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:03:55
+[Laughter] Thank you very much.
+Paul | 01:03:56
+Thank you.
+Helen | 01:04:01
+Thank you, everyone. Thanks, Paul.
+Paul | 01:04:04
+And thank you.

+Me here nice. Yeah can you cool to say my speakers aren't working guys.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:08
+Yes.
+Carmen | 00:09
+Yeah that good morning and you haven't replied to Rud Incas is fine.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:11
+Howsin. Costs. Coming.
+Carmen | 00:20
+I must have been hell all of yesterday, so I was on my own, but it was fine. She seems better today. It's really cool. It's a really cool show. 
+Like, I don't know how to describe it. It's like fancy, I don't know, I know it's just stands.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:36
+[Laughter] Yeah.
+Carmen | 00:40
+I mean, if you think about the substance, it's just stands, but it's just glam. It's like, glammed up, basically nice cosmetics.
+Jon A | 00:52
+It kind of makes sense. You have to go, yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:53
+H.
+Carmen | 00:55
+Yeah, exactly. You have to do it. It has to be beautiful. There's loads of pink when some sands cover. Let's be glam. Yeah, I know.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:03
+[Laughter].
+Carmen | 01:04
+[Laughter] Yeah, I've had a good conversation yesterday. We're gonna have a follow-up call next week, and yeah, we've made... I've made some friends, I guess. 
+Sorry I'm late for everything else, but I am listening. How are you guys? I was yesterday. Good, yes, ever.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:31
+Yeah. Hectic [Laughter] is Helen shining Carmeor.
+Carmen | 01:40
+Who declined?
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:41
+Helen. She did. Decline.
+Carmen | 01:44
+Yeah, I don't know is the honest answer. I spoke to Emma briefly yesterday. I mean, Emma was so unwell, she hasn't even opened her email just to give you a text, so we generally didn't get to a conclusion.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:56
+Okay.
+Carmen | 02:01
+I think Helen has been unreasonable because Emma, basically, it is true that this was one of the first projects that we scoped out with Helen. So we didn't really know all basically all of the details, right? 
+So when we scope a project now, we always make sure she writes down that she's got time to review the briefs, which apparently we didn't do back then.
+Dimo Stoychev | 02:23
+Yeah.
+Carmen | 02:26
+And my point is, I've included it in the PowerPoint for the client. Therefore, I'm almost sure that I must have talked about it with Helen, because otherwise, where would it have come from? 
+But the scope with Helen was verbal at that point. So I think what I was thinking yesterday. But I'm very happy to get your suggestions, guys. I think we should go ahead. We can do our best to make sure it's in line with the strategy. She's basically washing her hands of pack decks. 
+And I find it really petty that, with the working relationship that we have, she can't make half an hour to chat through concepts with us. Which I'm going to tell her, same for the consumer research. And she's like, we need to schedule it in for next year. I'm like, Fine, but then that should have been done in the first place. 
+So why aren't we talking about the fact that you haven't done it in the deck that we needed, which we've promised to the client? So I feel like that's a wider conversation about our ways of working. And I am personally not ready to go into battle when I'm not in the office. We need to deliver it. 
+But I don't know. What would you guys think? Going.
+Jon A | 03:51
+I think it's fine as it is. We can make the best case for it as possible. I was working on this all last night. I've tried to set it up so there's a decent lead-in and transition from that strategy into the creative. 
+So it should all link together to the best of my abilities.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:14
+I think it's adding complication to something that's already complicated. Put it this way, because it's difficult to translate the strategy into creative, there was so much.
+Jon A | 04:27
+It is.
+Carmen | 04:29
+But that's why she was meant to check it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:31
+Yeah.
+Carmen | 04:32
+I mean.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:32
+And I think at this point, we've already done it. I think we already have three ways that distill the strategy into something.
+Jon A | 04:41
+Yeah, I think that that's how our position there is that it is the strategy is complex.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:41
+And yeah.
+Jon A | 04:46
+It's a very difficult environment; we've got to fight a lot of things. So it's just about how do we use that strategy to win in the environment that we're in? It comes down to a few very simple things, which is to empower people, reassure them, give them hope, and propose HDP as a viable alternative for everything, considering the noise - the stigma that all plastics are bad and everything else. So I think that's what I always thought was the distillation of the strategy anyway.
+Carmen | 05:19
+Yeah, I think. Yeah. I mean, let's go through the refined version, because I was talking to Dimo yesterday. I know I came late to it, but there were a few wordings and things that Dimo and I were a bit concerned about. 
+But that can be refined, I think.
+Jon A | 05:39
+Yeah, but all of us are absolutely fine.
+Carmen | 05:41
+So is our TMA, Laura. It is, yes, I'm at home.
+Jon A | 05:46
+You're looking after Rich as well. Rich?
+Carmen | 05:52
+I am not rich. No, he's at work today, and I was obviously at Inco, so keeping TED company for a little while.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:00
+Nice. Let's keep you open it.
+Carmen | 06:02
+I TED did? What was he coming?
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:12
+And John thinks it was time to work on this late.
+Jon A | 06:16
+Just block you guys out from about 03:00 in the afternoon until half past five, so I can make any changes I need to.
+Carmen | 06:25
+Yeah, on today's call, I'm not sure. My flight is at 7, which is basically half an hour after the call starts, so I'll probably be boarding. And I mean, PAC tech always seems to have important calls when I'm flying. This was in the picture as well.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:47
+Yes.
+Carmen | 06:49
+But let's see how we get on. And then I might try to connect. I don't know.
+Jon A | 06:56
+So basically, where we are in the process. So concept, we've got the strategy next to the visual development, four things we're gonna go through, recap the strategy, explain how we're gonna win, go through the concepts, and then next steps. Fairly simple. 
+So the strategy recap is the 4 Cs. Someone can talk about this.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:16
+John, just for the presentation, we don't need to explain it again because they have seen it multiple times by now.
+Jon A | 07:20
+No, that's fine. We can just skip over it then. So the next part.
+Carmen | 07:27
+I just put in the platform because that's the slide I would have with a creative platform, you know, being part of the solution because that's what we're.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:34
+Yeah, that's a good idea. Yeah.
+Jon A | 07:39
+What to use for that, cool.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:41
+Yep. That's. Send it to.
+Carmen | 07:47
+So we can say we're not going to go through the strategy again, blah. This was our creative jump-off point.
+Jon A | 07:53
+Yeah, okay, don't clear. So, how we win basically from that strategy, we know that there's noise and contradiction dominating the space. Because of that, there is this, I call it crying wolf, that there's the amount of noise out there that just becomes meaningless. 
+It's all that, a whole story. The claims are green, better and innovative. They all just fall on deaf ears anyway. Now, buyers, hackers, they're flooded with detail, but lack, that's what, the context. They need to make better decisions as a fear of getting it wrong. 
+And that comes from like a lack of confidence as well. So it's the lack of being able to sell stuff in to stakeholders and to all the clients. There's a pressure to do the right thing, sometimes at the cost of business in the planet, leading to the easy common choice of fiber, the default to fiber. 
+And then there's that stigma that all plastics are bad, that we need to work around as well. So there's animations on this slide. So first of all, what are we missing for PACT to for any ideas to work? We're missing truth. 
+And that's needs to be the core. Absolutely everything we need to do. We're missing hope that there is a future for plastics, and we're missing the confidence that we need to empower our audiences with the right decisions as well. 
+So like three things. How to do when? We need to remove all the confusion around plastics and specifically HCPA we need to support people's decisions and we need to just not be plasticologists. We can't be apologizing for plastics. We need to say they are a viable solution and just be confident.
+Carmen | 09:43
+Sorry, can I just be picky? Dimo, how do you feel about the real truth? What is the truth? I was thinking, could it be like the full context or the full yes?
+Dimo Stoychev | 09:56
+The full picture.
+Carmen | 09:57
+Because the idea is that truth is always a bit.
+Jon A | 10:03
+Truth comput.
+Carmen | 10:04
+Well, yeah, but if we. But basically what we're saying is what some people don't have is the full picture of where plastics can be used successfully and sustainably. How do you feel about that deal?
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:17
+What someone said during the interview. I think it was their sustainability director that there is too much emotion and not an effect. 
+I think that's kind of how we should position it.
+Jon A | 10:26
+Okay, that's obviously fine.
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:30
+Maybe not good. But facts or just. Yeah.
+Jon A | 10:35
+That's a nice, easy choice. So, from this really simple concept, what are the requirements of what we need to do? We need to make it reassuring, we need to empower people. We need to hopefully reveal something, you know, like that "aha" moment where people are actually realizing the truth. 
+And we needed to be hopeful as well. So, everything just needs to be not "happy clappy." But it needs to empower people and give them hope that there is a viable alternative in their worlds. And then finally, yes, I can never put that on.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:09
+I think, John, maybe here it's a future-focused approach because you're talking about how plastic is to be used in the future. I think that comes in the creative, but it's really a digital problem.
+Carmen | 11:23
+Yeah, like programmatic as well. I think "pragmatic" is a word that I have in my mind a lot with PakTech. They're all very... Yeah, this is all nice. But then when you look, like you said, when you look at the facts, the story is a bit different.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:39
+That's how I.
+Carmen | 11:39
+Yeah, that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:40
+Described. Elizabeth to John.
+Jon A | 11:42
+Yeah, pragmatic. We can work with pragmatic. Last one is we know that some of the audiences are very similar in terms of what they need out of PakTech. So, we can't really take... We can't really separate the audiences as much as we normally do, but what we can do is hit them with all the different tonalities. 
+So, whatever idea we have needs to be sticky, needs to be stretching, and we need to be able to talk about facts and being pragmatic to, like, co-packers, co-manufacturers, and engineers. But we need to sometimes talk emotionally to people like independent breweries and those CEOs because they're going to make decisions based on headlines and not facts. 
+So, whatever the idea is, we need to be able to work at both ends of this spectrum and anywhere in between, just to make sure that idea is gonna last. So, concepts... each one has its own territory. So, deal with this. What we talked about yesterday, that each one hits the strategy in a slightly different way. 
+So, the first one will allow...
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:47
+Sorry to interrupt right before we start, but Ken, we removed one of the concepts, which was "Here to Stay."
+Jon A | 12:56
+Which one, "Here to Stay"? Because that was very similar, if not identical to "Plastic Packaging of the Past in the Future," which is just a slightly different way to say it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 13:09
+Yeah. It was to give us more time and to make sure that those three are better defined, and we have better concepts to show today.
+Jon A | 13:20
+I'm going to have to jump off at nine for a briefing. Just so we've got to run through this quickly. So, first territory is different. So, what makes PakTech unique? This all comes out like that product truth of HDP build credibility lead with this unmatched functional excellence and spotlight what makes their products systematically better than anything else in terms of comparison.
+So, yeah, they are 100% recycled. Recyclable. Zero exceptions. It's this commitment to closing the loop without loopholes of greenwashing that zero exceptions is the absolute key to showing complete confidence in the product's integrity and durability and positioning. PakTech because we've got nothing to hide. Manifesto. We can make as many changes as these as we want to get the comment you put on the earlier demo about changing circular to closing the loop.
+So we can reflect that across absolutely every single one of them. Which one else? Do that. Until the afternoon. At the moment.
+Carmen | 14:38
+There are two comments I have on this. So, I think the Manifesto needs to link back to the platform a bit more. We need. I get why we want one that's more functional linked to the products, but we need that link back.
+So basically saying for us, being part of the solution means being truthful. You know, being truthful to this recycled recycle, like being honest. I don't know that that's where my mind is going. Am I interpreting that correctly? John?
+Jon A | 15:13
+So that, yeah, that's supposed to bring it back into the platform being part of the solution.
+Carmen | 15:22
+I think we have to call that out like how do we build? Because where, we're what I think you might have done is got the platform and then went, okay, yeah, we're gonna do one that's functional 100%, then we're gonna do one that's a bit more out there, and then we're gonna I'm assuming you got like three layers of it. The part, the exception part makes me a bit nervous because of the infrastructure pro like.
+I know what you're trying to do here. I wonder whether the wording's a bit contentious because in Europe especially, the recycling is really hard.
+Jon A | 16:00
+Yeah, so.
+Carmen | 16:02
+Yeah, so I don't want to. I don't want us to go out with something that says we make no exception to that. Like, yeah, the product is recyclable, but what does that mean for the brand if in practice it can't be recycled? Do you know what I mean?
+Jon A | 16:23
+Yeah. This is one of the things that's been in the back of my head for a long time is that no matter what we say, that infrastructure just doesn't exist.
+Carmen | 16:31
+That's why the hundred percent is very black and white. Makes me a bit nervous.
+Jon A | 16:42
+I think this is one that I was hoping we'd discuss through PakTech because it is very feature-focused. It could look absolutely fantastic. But I think at the level we need to talk about, I think this route was almost too simple, too product-focused at the moment.
+Carmen | 17:00
+Too product-focused, very... we... it's not really the direction we've been going with the strategy, is it? Dimo, I don't know. You'll know this better than me, but I get focusing on the product, I guess because we want to give them one example that's like functional. It's a hundred percent wording that I'm not too comfortable with. But Dimo, what's your opinion?
+Dimo Stoychev | 17:38
+I think what it does well is it shows commitment to innovation because they don't have to be a hundred percent recycled or recyclable. Like, the infrastructure is not there to require them to be at that level. But they're still doing it because that's the right thing to do. So that's where it is.
+Carmen | 18:00
+But innovation isn't coming out of this right now. If that's what we want to convey.
+Dimo Stoychev | 18:07
+Still, they're the first company to achieve that. So that's kind of how it starts. I get the challenge of the infrastructure isn't there. So once the product is in the hands of the customer, that's when PakTech is not really able to influence what happens next. But what they need to do, they are doing. That's how I saw it.
+Carmen | 18:36
+But just for the sake of conversation, if we go back to the stakeholder interviews or to do the... yeah, part of the research we've done is the fact that it's hundred percent recycled, a buying decision factor.
+Dimo Stoychev | 18:58
+I think so.
+Carmen | 18:59
+I feel like that's something we're pushing because it's our agenda. But would they buy it because of that?
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:09
+Yes, but there's no requirement to be at 100%. So customers have to meet the minimum recycled content percentage, and what PakTech does is it helps them to meet that percentage and exceed it.
+Carmen | 19:19
+Yes.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:24
+So if you use their handles, you don't have to worry about the secondary packaging anymore. So if there's changes in legislation or anything like that, you're already at 100%. So you're already meeting that.
+Carmen | 19:38
+For the secondary packaging, you mean, is the rule on the secondary or on the full packaging?
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:40
+Yes. Yeah, I don't know the specifics. But I know they have to meet the minimum threshold.
+Carmen | 19:48
+No. Yeah, the only hesitation I have is that I agree with you - sometimes secondary packaging makes such a small percentage of the full packaging that it might not have an impact. 
+I guess this means, obviously, this one doesn't convince me too much. I'm just not reading much into the hundred percent. Is there another way of phrasing this idea? John, do you reckon? 
+Because we've talked about innovation and added value, but it's not coming through yet. I think it's a feature. We're saying it's a feature - it's 100% recyclable.
+Jon A | 20:38
+Yeah, I think, yes, but I need time to do it, which I don't have today. No one has time to say it. I've got enough time this afternoon to make changes to scripts and think. I can't change a concept at this stage now. 
+Would we just been it?
+Carmen | 21:03
+Let's keep going and see if we can think about something else.
+Jon A | 21:09
+So we got messaging for each one. So, functional, emotional, and somewhere blended, all based on the same. With this one, we'll always start with that technical truth and then reinforce the proof points, basically to make it easy for people to understand it. 
+And that sort of flow of it reflects how decisions are made as well. So I would just create and trust with the audience. Yes. 
+Okay, then, in terms of AR direction for this was enough 1 from the very start this project was can we just make these handles sexy? So focus on the material, focus on the product, focus on the way that Microsoft and Samsung sell, you know, minor details, and just make it sexy as possible to celebrate that sort of product excellence. Nice and simple means lots of three days. It could be stunning. 
+It's so one way to instantly talk other sort, no hidden things, but do something completely different than everyone else is doing in the space. Make it say, number two circular. But I'm tempted to change it on to close loop now instead of circular. Let's see. 
+So this one really straightforward this about the system nothing in nothing from patch should be disposable. It should be part of our system that aligns with the closed loop circular economy. And with this one, I want to show that HDP isn't a villain. By showing that, you know, with HDP, we can build a better system. 
+So this one is packaging with a future, packaging with the past and the future. So it's more poetic, it's more human, but it's quietly subversive as well. We're acknowledging that perception of plastic's past and at the same time making cat its future. 
+And that future it's not as landfill, but it's a return that returning cyclical resource. So emboding PakTech role keeping those creative materials in use as much as possible. So Manifesto yeah.
+Carmen | 23:42
+Remember this one? I think I really like this idea. I think it's cool.
+Jon A | 23:45
+I think this is the strongest because it's the one that doesn't have any negatives about it. It's. It's got the hope. But it's all.
+Carmen | 23:52
+It's very good to build a story, isn't it? Like, yeah, expanding, yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:55
+And now.
+Jon A | 23:57
+Yeah, there's lots of ways you can do this as well.
+Carmen | 23:59
+Yeah.
+Jon A | 24:01
+I think this one's my favorite.
+Carmen | 24:06
+Yep.
+Jon A | 24:08
+Cool messaging again. So these are just playing on that tension of past and future. So we're using like from to from, you know, from the problem to the solution, from single EAs to second third fourth, from landfill to circular economy. Stated the obvious, and then just expanding that into, that whole closed loop narrative.
+Carmen | 24:55
+Yeah, I think the headlines could do it work, but I like the concept.
+Jon A | 25:05
+In terms of art direction, yeah. This is something that came from what we were talking about, like all the different colors and uses we could do. So, this is using that iconic circle, that idea of a "loop circle economy" just to hear the product. 
+So, on one side, we can show the entire system, the details or the uses, all the different kinds of packaging. Turn it into this idea of a system on the right-hand side. We could do lots of fun things by turning their actual packaging into art.
+Carmen | 25:33
+Yeah, so how difficult is this to do?
+Jon A | 25:37
+It's something we could do; we could fake it for three days in terms of reality at a trade show. You can do this as one big thing. Yeah, if you're going to do it. If we're going to do reality for every single touch point, it's going to be. 
+But the ones on the right-hand side are like the really big showpieces that we can make some interesting things out of. But we can make them in three days, and that's how we could turn them into like an advertising, colorful thing. 
+So, this is the start of it. It's a way to think about how we could visualize it. Yeah. Then, last one, partnership - position PakTech as that supportive partner in the sustainability journey for the customers and not just as a supplier. 
+So, position PakTech as an essential partner for when decisions need to be sold in. Basically, give them the confidence and give the context for decisions. There's sort of this idea like resonance with those independent brands, the ones that are looking for people who can be trusted, who care more and who share similar values as well. 
+So, I'm going to handle it with care. Duality. It talks about the strength of the product, but it talks about a deeper balance of ethics and responsibility from PakTech as well, and their full approach. 
+It's all about the products that you can trust. I hate this phrase, but a partner who cares? So, it works. It works on lots and multiple levels. Manifesto. It's the shortest one of the lot, but it's got a bit of punch to it.
+Carmen | 27:30
+Do you want my unfiltered thoughts?
+Jon A | 27:33
+Go for it.
+Carmen | 27:34
+I really don't like the word "care." I get the idea. I just feel it's very inflated. And the more practical concern I have with the line is if we end up translating it.
+Jon A | 27:50
+Yeah, I had a quick look last night. I think generally we'd be fine. It should be quite a common idiom. We might just need to change the word "care" to something else in different languages.
+Carmen | 28:06
+I think I get the idiom, but then you're not going to get the... Okay, well, you would lose the play on words, I guess.
+Jon A | 28:13
+Yeah, exactly.
+Carmen | 28:14
+Yeah, I just think the word "care" is so inflated. I feel like I see it everywhere.
+Jon A | 28:26
+I think that this is something that Alan did we very briefly so on yesterday.
+Carmen | 28:31
+Yeah, I think... What? We can't... I mean, obviously, that's not the final line. Well, this is what I think would have to be the final line, though.
+Jon A | 28:39
+What we can do is say, look, these are not final lines. These are approaches.
+Carmen | 28:44
+Yeah, they're approaches.
+Jon A | 28:46
+Yeah, they still need work. It's all about the idea at this stage, rather than the words. And I can prep that. I think I'm going to prep that at the very start of it anyway.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:55
+Yeah, that was included.
+Jon A | 28:56
+So just to frame what we give in.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:57
+That was included in an email to Elizabeth last night, just to say that the DES today are going to be just a starting point.
+Jon A | 28:59
+Sorry, just a prep cool messaging all about support and trustworthy. We don't think "care" is inflated, but there's an emotional hook without being too soft. As we need to push as in pack, that sort of guides through complexity as well. It's a plus. I've got more rationale for what I'm going to say to PakTech. It's basically just yeah, we're just elevating that support.
+
+So that's how we respond to the intent.
+Carmen | 29:46
+So how are we closing the loop for this one? Is it through care?
+Jon A | 29:52
+Yeah, it's through PakTech, approaching values, and the products as well.
+Carmen | 29:57
+Okay, yeah, so this is more about their values feeding into the supply chain. Okay, exactly. Right.
+Jon A | 30:10
+Okay, then art direction for this one is different, braver, very incredibly different in the space. Basically, visualize PakTech as having that helping hand, as the people who handle things with care, protecting the product, holding it, whatever you need to do.
+
+Yeah, those products will always be focused; it's strong. Everyone gets it like it's a very brilliant choice. Yeah, and there's... I'm sorry, yep, exactly. You can, yeah, it's got a lot of flex to it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 30:41
+You can make it very colorful as well. You can make that very colorful as well.
+Jon A | 30:57
+So, three, we've got difference, which is certainly product truth. The only thing you know, HT PakTech HDP is the only material that delivers performance, sustainability, transparency with zero exceptions, closed loop now from circular reframing that narrative of plastics in a circular world. You know, plastics are not a problem; it's yes, HCV is that system-ready material for the future.
+Carmen | 31:28
+Yeah.
+Jon A | 31:29
+And then last one, building the trust and support, handle complexity in your product and visions with care.
+Carmen | 31:39
+Do you think we have to show the three odd variations you've done because those are the ones that make me a. But I think you would make me feel better if we could go in with. Like, this is the generic route. What? Which one? 
+And then if, let's say they could pick two and then we could refine them a bit more.
+Jon A | 31:57
+Yeah.
+Carmen | 32:00
+Okay, fine. So, John, I know you have to go demo. Do you want to stay five more minutes and we can think about it a bit more and then you can feed octogen, I guess.
+Jon A | 32:11
+Yeah, there are bits I can be doing in between things, but I've got. Yeah, like three until half five. I've got time dedicated to this, so.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:19
+Okay.
+Jon A | 32:21
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:26
+Nice. Thanks, John. Thank you.
+Jon A | 32:29
+Cheer, guys. John see.
+Carmen | 32:36
+No, stop sharing down, okay?
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:39
+Think we have it?
+Carmen | 32:39
+I got it from a share you do.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:41
+If we have it open.
+Carmen | 32:45
+So I think what we have now is I think Dimo, I think make sure we're going back to the creative territory, like even in the narrative, because I think it's probably in his head right now, but I don't think it's coming alive in the deck a lot.
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:05
+I think if we start with the platform, then we can keep referencing.
+Carmen | 33:10
+Yeah, I think it's like, okay, so if you think about we're being part the solution, how are we doing that? Are you doing it by creating exceptional projects? 
+Right? So that's the first one. Then we're doing it by giving plastics a future. Yeah, and then we're doing it by being a responsible partner. So I think that's how I'm like just to I it in my head. The hundred percent line not line but area I think needs thinking a bit because what are we highlight? I just don't feel it's strong enough to say that it's recycled and recyclable. It just feels very. 
+Like, what's the idea there?
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:13
+Yeah, I think it's actually the no exceptions part that makes this. Stando.
+Carmen | 34:21
+It's the no exceptions, right? Yeah. So is it like, no exceptions to quality, no exceptions to standards, no exception?
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:32
+Yeah. Yeah, I think maybe the reason why I'm more confident about this one is because I spoke to Jim. 
+So the guy who set up the company, the founder, because the way he spoke about the product is like, if it has my name on it has to be super high quality.
+Carmen | 34:45
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:56
+So that's why I say it as something that they have as part of their values to actually do the right thing to support customers, to make sure their products are as good as they can be.
+Carmen | 35:08
+In fact, I hold on, I've just realized something. You know how they talk about the whole tailorability of their handholds?
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:22
+The cristomization there.
+Carmen | 35:24
+Isn't the exception? 
+Yeah, isn't the zero exceptions actually going against that? Is it more a no compromise that we're trying to say, do you know what I mean?
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:38
+Yeah, I mean, it.
+Carmen | 35:41
+Maybe I'm overthinking it. I know compromise is a very inflated word as well. 
+But, the idea we're trying to give is that it's always the best quality possible. Right. It's always the.
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:53
+It won't fail you.
+Carmen | 35:56
+Yeah, so it's the. 
+Which elevates that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:18
+So if you really want to boil it down, you have the material for which they are 200% recycled and recyclable.
+Carmen | 36:24
+Yes.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:28
+But then beyond the material, they have the customization so they can come up with any design, then they can do it quickly. 
+And then they have their quality in the way the product is built, so it won't fail you. They have a very low failure rate.
+Carmen | 36:52
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:53
+So I think that's the functionality, the features.
+Carmen | 37:00
+2. 
+How would the features that we are describing become part of the solution?
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:26
+I think I actually prefer the no compromise now because I think that's where by them giving you that high-quality product, that you don't have to use an alternative because you won't be failed by this plastic. It helps you to meet your sustainability goals, not just meet them, but exceed them.
+Carmen | 37:53
+3.
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:55
+So it essentially is offering a solution that's not just a compromise, but it is in fact helping to be opening high-quality product and to meet your sustainability targets.
+Carmen | 38:16
+Yeah, it's something like no compromise on quality. It's that thing that we're missing, right? No compromise on what? Because it's not compromise on quality. 
+But then it doesn't get more generic than that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 38:31
+Yeah. Yeah, I think because I see what, the creator trying to do. Because we have a number. They wanted to have a number. And then say exceptions.
+Carmen | 38:41
+Yeah, I know what you mean. You think it's about a comp obsession for the detail? Do you think it's because I'm looking at the design, the art direction? It's very much about the detail, so is it that PakTech don't compromise because they obsess about every single detail of their product, of their supply chain, of their credentials? 
+So obsession is a negative word, but, is it, like, curated to the point that there's no compromise or, I'm trying to describe the end result rather than the feature is what I'm trying to do.
+Dimo Stoychev | 39:22
+Yeah, you may have something. Because what they do is minimalism, like using very little plastic.
+Carmen | 39:38
+Yes. Minimalism is actually really important for sustainability, you know?
+Dimo Stoychev | 39:45
+Yeah, but to get to that, you do need to obsess over all the details.
+Carmen | 39:50
+Yeah, so it's something like the crasper - like all you need, nothing less, you know, nothing more, something zero if we want to go through the numbers. Could be zero, not needed, whatever. 
+Anyway, I really have to go now. Sorry. Can I leave it with you, Dimo? I think what I think we can do is. I don't think we have to give them the solution now, but I do think we have to move away from this hundred percent. 
+So if we can craft something today just to give them the idea and then we'll think about the line.
+Dimo Stoychev | 40:36
+Yeah, but do you think so? I think this still works. So making the product show the minimalism.
+Carmen | 40:42
+I think this still works. This works even more.
+Dimo Stoychev | 40:44
+Yeah.
+Carmen | 40:45
+Yeah, they yeah, the manifestos I think need thinking about a bit.
+Dimo Stoychev | 40:45
+I think it's the manifesto end. The line that we need to look into.
+Carmen | 40:58
+What's this for? This one. Yeah, this one you might want to rethink AA demo in terms of. Our way of being part of the solution is being obsessed by the quality of the product by making sure there's a supply chain by, you know, everything that we do. 
+I think we need to go back to that. 
+It has a typo. 
+There's usability potential. We need to make sure that John says HDP and not HTPA. 
+I think this Manifesto has the potential to explain that idea of pragmatism that we were talking about.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:03
+I.
+Carmen | 42:06
+Dimo, you know the last paragraph - while everyone else is trying to eliminate plastic? I don't think that's true. 
+I think there's a hype around it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:14
+And.
+Carmen | 42:14
+But then I'd say something like while everybody else is demonizing plastic, we're finding - we're trying to be please find better words, but we're trying to be pragmatic about the reality and we want to make sure we've got the best plastic as post blah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:34
+Yeah. So from the C platform, we can pretty much take it from there.
+Carmen | 42:35
+So that's how we're part of the silver. That's exactly. So, you're like, plastic has a past, but this always has a future. Yeah, part of the Circular Economy, whatever the difference is, is designed to last - durability.
+Yeah. And then at the end, we have to wrap it up with, our plastic has - we want to give plastic a positive story. You know, we want to make plastic the positive here of the supply chain. That can be something like that.
+Sorry, I think I must go.
+Shit, I need to be at the show at 10:30. You need to go. Yeah, how far away is it? It's 6 minutes. Loads of time, common.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:51
+[Laughter] That's the last one.
+Carmen | 43:52
+Well, those lost ones handled with care.
+I think this needs to be more about the impact on the supply chain of the client.
+Yeah. And then, "handled with care" is making me, you know, very nervous. Sorry, I really have to go now. Let me know if you want to speak again. I can.
+I've got a couple of things this morning, but then, like over lunch or something like that, if you want, we can speak again if you need it, Dimo.
+Dimo Stoychev | 44:48
+And do you have any time to review this again?
+Carmen | 44:57
+Yeah, I'll make time.
+Dimo Stoychev | 44:57
+Okay, because I can make some suggestions to John. Then you have a look at three o'clock. So, before the call, if you can find some time to just check it before we present.
+Carmen | 45:08
+Yep, to go through it together. Yeah, thank you.
+Dimo Stoychev | 45:12
+Nice. Okay. Thank you very much. Thanks.
+Carmen | 45:16

+Anyway, we digressed yet again. So, demo... So, we're going over premix. So, Jenny put together the copy first that we're going to go over. I think Josh sent me a note. We just want to make sure that we dial in the template and the amount of content that we have just to make sure we're as streamlined as possible.
+I think we want to make sure... I think the goal is to ensure our sales team can clearly articulate the benefit and the value of what the advanced powder technologies offer holistically. But then going into each one to navigate in and out of them, we don't want to give away the farm, so to speak, but we want to be at least able to convey what the benefit is and to solicit more conversations.
+So, I think today what we want to do is look at it with that lens and then go to design and then, at the end of this call, what we'd love to get from you is when do you think we can get those final designs and then which will basically create a template for us.
+Then we can start to build out a schedule to say, okay, how quickly can we execute on these next five? Josh has some trainings that he has coming up later in this year, so we just want to marry that against the date of those trainings.
+But I want to be mindful that there's other information that we need on the other five advanced powder technologies. Josh, from you in order to kind of build the content out. So hopefully that kind of gives just at least a set the context for today's meeting and what we're looking to do out of it.

+I would say, let's share the screen and go through it together. Yeah, I'll be perfectly honest with you. I just looked at it quickly and I did not have a chance to go into it with great detail.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:25
+Yeah, that's fine.
+Right? Hopefully, you can see this. Okay?
+Rich | 22:42
+So okay, so you have a title slide here. Sorry, let's just start from the beginning here.
+That's one slide. Is that what you're envisioning?
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:51
+Yes. So that is basically the cover for the presentation.
+Rich | 22:59
+Okay.
+Josh | 22:59
+So we have that, right?
+Rich | 23:02
+So this is going to be built into the customer presentation, remember?
+So it's not a standalone. They could pull it out modularly, but it's going to be used in concert with... Because that's why we have that navigation along the top. I can bring it up.
+If that's not ringing a bell.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:19
+Okay. So in that case, it's more of a section. Breaks.
+Josh | 23:24
+I would say so. Yeah.
+Rich | 23:28
+I just want to make sure we're all clear on how this is going to be implemented because...
+Maybe I'm just not.
+Josh | 23:45
+Where's this thing?
+Rich | 23:56
+That's okay, we can keep going. I can't find it right away, but it's part of a bigger presentation. But it's all good.
+Dimo Stoychev | 24:01
+Okay.
+Rich | 24:07
+And the reason I'm bringing this up is because there's some language in here in terms of supercharging and your functional performance of premixes, advance powder like that might have to be incorporated into the actual presentation.
+So that title slide will not exist.
+Dimo Stoychev | 24:18
+Yeah.
+Yup. So we have the title slide, then we have the overview. And that's... So all of that is intended to be on one's SL.
+Josh | 25:17
+The next page, which was iteration number 3. I don't know if we are just going through this slide by slide or what, but yeah, I think this one... This is actually now going to fall underneath one of those six platforms.
+So this section on iteration actually is going to be the majority of the content for the Uniformity and Mixing platform. So we'll use this actually as a basis for a lot of the content for that platform. No need to highlight it here.
+Dimo Stoychev | 25:56
+Okay, so can we still mention it on the previous slide? So we have it under Leverage Cutting-Edge Formulation Solutions.
+Josh | 26:07
+Yeah, it is called out separately in our existing sales deck.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:07
+I think it was called out separately. But that will then move to.
+Josh | 26:16
+And yeah, we still want this content.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:17
+Okay.
+Josh | 26:18
+It's just going to fit underneath one of those six platforms. It'll fit under the uniformity in mixing.
+So just.
+Rich | 26:26
+These to... I'm going to just send you a link. I just want to make sure we're all working off the same document because I saved it to the team site. So I don't know if that's... Whatever changes you make on here, I just want to capture more on one. One document.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:38
+Yeah, I think I opened the one I sent, which was a direct...
+I'm sorry, Ri, you couldn't give me access. I just requested.
+Rich | 27:17
+Can come through now. Let me share it. I could share it because I don't see that coming through. Should have access though.
+Yeah, I gotta make sure it's editable.
+Should have access now. So I think what we said is I'll just make the notes here. So comment:
+"Labor and experience are shaping the future of formulation. I think we got to include nutrition."
+So I'm just sorry, just a little bit confused because I thought what we were going to do on the title slide or the introduction slide was introduce the seven technologies.
+So this is just like an overarching... Which is fine, but let you do that down here.
+Josh | 29:53
+Rich I think that the content from that looks like it's the content that's already on our existing advanced powder technology slide. So slide one and two. I think those are the two slides that we have for APT already. Got it.
+But yeah, I mean, I think the new introduction should be one, but combining one and two into the section slide and then jumping straight to slide four where we introduce now.
+Rich | 30:24
+Platforms.
+Josh | 30:27
+And problem in the solution.
+Rich | 30:49
+Because this is all what we do. Yeah.
+Josh | 30:54
+So then it jumps to the first kind of deep dive. Starts on slide six on the stability and oxid ation.
+Rich | 31:08
+Master stability in formulation.
+This looks pretty good.
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:48
+Do you think that level of detail matches the balance that we're looking for? So we're not giving too much away, but we're still articulating the.
+Josh | 31:58
+I think. So, you know, I think we definitely I've been trying to think about. Okay, well, what does that balance look like? I think what we need to do is refer to at some point the technologies that we're actually using.
+So in this case, we reference micro encapsulation, protective coatings, Flexil Lease, which I know we need to kind of scope that trademark. And if we're going to use that or not. But I think. Referencing these.
+But I think that's about as deep as we want to go. We don't need to go into detail about how are we micro encapsulating, tailored protective coatings, et cetera. Like. I think that's as deep as we want to go into the marketing material because in the trainings that we're building, we'll have a little bit deeper level than that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:39
+Okay.
+Josh | 32:44
+That's going to be for more technical discussions. But in the marketing material, I think it's enough to talk about those technologies. But we've really focused on the problem and the solution. So I think I personally think this is a nice balance.
+Rich | 33:02
+No, I agree. I mean, I think the only thing maybe I would get into here is its stability and oxidation. And a lot of this is just about stability. So just talk about how oxidation is a direct effect.
+You want to limit oxidation because otherwise that's going to degrade the ingredients, you know? So maybe just where's.
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:31
+So to be a bit more specific about toxidation.
+Rich | 33:36
+Yeah, right. Because stratch oxidation is kind of like the. I don't know. I want to call it.
+Josh | 33:44
+Just the violent killer.
+Rich | 33:45
+Of. Yeah.
+Josh | 33:47
+Active ingredients.
+Rich | 34:25
+So So then just going back up, constantly investing to keep you one step ahead. So this is all...
+I almost think we don't need this, right? So sorry, just to go back here. I'm just thinking about streamlining this thing. Can we... Wouldn't it be better instead of solving a technical challenge? I get it.
+This is an overview of everything. I'm just wondering. Unless we lay it out and then look at it that way. Because for me, this is the key slide. So, if you can incorporate these key things in specific technology with key wording within a nice overarching kind of benefit statement to me, that would be best. Just here's the titles. Here's the title slide introduction of what we do.
+Maybe there's one slide before, maybe one small slide, but this is the key introduction. Then you go directly into the mastering, what do you call it? Mastering stability in every formulation, right?
+So maybe just rethink that, just write that. Do you guys agree?
+Josh | 35:51
+Yeah. I mean, Rich, I think that slide that showed, like, that you were just showing a moment ago, that was, I think, the original take on this solutions platform. So yeah, I mean, that's a bit redundant now with this slide.
+So I think it makes sense to just get rid of that. I don't think I think that's what is on that existing slide. Two is exactly what we already have in the existing deck. I think it's redundant.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:29
+So just to be clear, we prioritize the information on this slide that Rich has selected now. Okay.
+Rich | 36:36
+I write that. Let's get ready to say it.
+Okay, so then we get into the... And then stability and oxidation. This is the first benefit page. So, on one side, it's an overview of what it is, and then it's the problem-solution, and you've nicely done that. Flex, Les, Josh, do you know what flex is like? What?
+Josh | 37:24
+Yeah, I mean, it's one of our coding technologies that we have. I just... I'm not... What I'm trying to do is evaluate how widely are we actually using this at the moment, because I feel like we have it, yes, but I don't know if it's actively being used in our premixes, so I'm doing research on that.
+Rich | 37:46
+Okay, so from a trademark standpoint, it's grandfathered in and we do have a cover. We can use it from a B2B standpoint. We can't use it from a B2C standpoint, which I think is the intent. Anyway. What I would just be mindful of is we're rolling out a whole advanced powder technology portfolio, right?
+To provide one grandfather name in a storyline across six or seven different technologies might not make the best sense. So I would say we take it out for now and then we can read introduce it back in, but in a more strategic way if that's in fact the way we want to go.
+Josh | 38:23
+I would much rather just refer to the general technologies like encapsulation, coding instead of leaving the trademarks. Yeah, I agree.
+Yeah, leaving these trademarks in would be one way of just, I guess you could say hyperlinking, the premix to the different forms that we have, but I just don't know if that's useful or not.
+I guess. Rich, an example of where maybe it would be useful is like row coat. We use that a lot in our premixes. It's very commonly used in all regions.
+I think there's power behind Roco, but we don't mention that anywhere. But I mean, that's an example where maybe there's some brand equity or some relevancy to the trademark, but Flex at least I don't think so.
+Rich | 40:05
+Yeah, well, even Roco, I think we should just... I mean, it just feels like if we're going to do it and we're going to create these trademarks, let's do it for the whole portfolio and let's do it in a strategic way. For me, it feels like this is a very convenient and tactical way to just basically take what we were doing and reintroduce it into this larger story without any thought, right?
+So for me, it's like, "Let's just remove them for now." To your point, Josh, let's remove that friction too, because now you don't have to explain what Roco is or Flexes is, you just say what it is. It's an encapsulation, right?
+Because the bigger thought is advanced power technologies in the previous solutions. Then we can say, "Okay, if we want to start to introduce these technologies, maybe we do it in a better and more strategic way, and we do it more universally through a Halo name." That all links back to advanced power technologies.
+Josh | 40:53
+Yeah. Yeah, it just feels like we're not quite ready for that yet.
+Rich | 40:57
+Okay.
+Josh | 40:58
+I go make that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 40:59
+Because I think it's the prominence you're giving to different technologies.
+If you have a trademark, that draws more attention.
+Rich | 41:05
+Exactly, yeah. It's unfavorably weighting something that maybe doesn't need to be unfavorably weighted because you might have a better technology in another advanced power technology. So I totally okay.
+Josh | 41:31
+Rig, I need to step away for like two minutes. I'll be right back.
+Rich | 41:34
+No worries, Dimo. Sorry, I know we spent a lot of time talking about this earlier. Are you okay with that time or do you have to run?
+Dimo Stoychev | 41:43
+Yeah. Yeah, I think we have an hour.
+Rich | 41:45
+Okay, right, cool.
+Dimo Stoychev | 41:46
+Yeah, and I'm just checking the timings in the meantime.
+So we have a copy next week when Jenny is back so we can look at Vio.
+Rich | 41:53
+Three.
+Dimo Stoychev | 41:57
+And I'm just waiting to confirm the design time. Because that might be a week after next.
+Rich | 42:03
+Okay, is there any chance to jump that in next week, or is that not way.
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:08
+Now that's what I'm looking at.
+Rich | 42:11
+Okay, right.
+So what is this? I'm sorry, what am I jumping to here? The perfect balancing act?
+Dimo Stoychev | 42:53
+I think that's the case studies that we wanted to highlight.
+Rich | 42:57
+Okay, so then this should be a case study, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:06
+Yeah, so that's the case studies under a steam sheet.
+It's on the left side. I think that's the second case study, but it wasn't on the tabulation.
+Rich | 43:25
+Okay. This was a case study we were looking at.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:31
+Yep.
+Rich | 43:39
+It's really I have a hard time looking at this stuff. When's not like, designed.
+Dimo Stoychev | 43:44
+No. I agree. I think once it's on a PowerPoint, it looks different.
+Rich | 43:49
+Yeah, because then you can look at it a bit differently. I just want to find that email I sent you guys with the brief. Who did I send that to? I sent that to you or Rebecca.
+Dimo Stoychev | 44:06
+Whattima is that.
+Rich | 44:08
+It was the brief with all those links here. At least I got it. Okay.
+Yeah. So those are all the existing slides. Now I understand the copy you pulled this copy right from here, got
+so I think maybe we were confused on the ask. So the ask is to rebuild it. This is what we had existing, but I think what we're saying is, as you navigate through the customer presentation, you're going to have all those nine reasons to believe.
+And when you get to advanced PA Technologies, this will be the title slide or the introduction. And what we had recommended was the highlight of what will go in there. And I think what you had just to go back
+to that, two. So, what we need is just to go back and align the demo. So, I think what we need is when someone's navigating through this presentation and they fall on advanced powder technologies. This is what we had before. Josh developed a little bit more articulation in the seven technologies, right?
+That's what was replicated on the Word document. I think what we need to do is get rid of slides one through four and replace them with this slide, but cleaned up. Do you know what I mean? Articulate this.
+Well, if it has to be over two slides, we don't care. As long as this is the main thrust of what we're introducing, the seven technologies, but I think we need an overview slide. So, if Jenny wants to take it from those first four slides, this...
+I think the fourth is about triations, but from what she built. Where is that one? This might be a new language. I don't know. I'd have to go back and do a get. This is where it's hard to...
+Maybe what would be better is that Dimo can appreciate her working and just being very copyright-focused on the Word document, but have her fill it out in this. Okay, because we already have the template and the design is only going to be... The design can be modified, but at least we can start to see how the copy is going to fill a page.
+know?
+Dimo Stoychev | 48:14
+Okay?
+Rich | 48:14
+So what I would recommend, and even with this one right, it doesn't need to be perfect. What we will evaluate and review in the next round is the language on it and the copy on it.
+Even if it's overcrowded, then that'll be Dave's job to clean it up. And you can do it over two slides. Three slides do animation, whatever he needs to do to kind of bring it to life in a very clear and calculated way.
+But what? So to be clear, the goal is to have two or three introduction slides for advanced powder technologies when you land on this. And then we'll start to get... And then I think the copy that she laid out now for those case studies makes a bit more sense because now when I go back there, way too much stuff is open.
+Josh | 49:10
+Got a lot of taps. Rich, yeah.
+Rich | 49:13
+So now, when I go back here, where's that first case study here? Case study one. Minimize overages, maximize shelf life. And here I think our comments, or at least mine before, were focused on your missing oxidation.
+I was under the impression this was the introduction, not realizing it was a case study. So this will be the intro challenge solution, which I think will fit very nicely and start to keep jumping back and forth.
+But I just want to... I don't need this. What was that? This? Yeah, because then you have the body copy with what she wrote, supporting copy. In terms of problem-solution, fine. Okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 50:11
+Yeah. I think the case studies fit in this layout quite easily. So we can put this in and then we can spend a bit more time thinking on the introduction, the overview of how that story is put together.
+I agree. I think it might be easier to put this in PowerPoint because what we need to judge is how much content there is to get through if you're presenting, which might become across a bit more difficult in copy.
+Josh | 50:39
+And one other comment on that too is up to this point, we don't have in our premix deck a lot of visuals to help showcase premix. I mean, almost all of the pictures and the visuals that we have are lifestyle.
+They're not related to the premix. This is the one section where we'll actually have some images to help showcase uniformity and mixing. If we can leave some space in there for those types of images,
+this will be the one place, I think, where it makes sense to use some actual graphics and photos.
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:17
+Yeah. And so just do we have theses for each case? STDY do we have images for each case study?
+Josh | 51:25
+Three.
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:29
+Because we've got three in total.
+Josh | 51:33
+We're working on getting images for all the case studies we have. So I can send you what we do have here, but there will be images for all of them.
+Dimo Stoychev | 51:37
+Okay. So even if we don't have anything now, we keep a placeholder that can be S.
+Rich | 51:55
+So demo, I'm just adding a point here. I think sensitive bioactives... So now you're introducing a new word, right? So everything prior to this, we've never talked about bioactives. We're introducing advanced powder technologies to solve for flavor and experience.
+Then we added functional ingredients or something like that. Now we're talking about bioactives. So, just look, to harmonize the language where we can, to make sure we're telling a consistent story.
+Unless... I mean, I don't want to over scrutinize this thing, but I just feel like sensitive bioactives, water, fat-soluble vitamins, are highly vulnerable to environmental, viromental, and medical mechanical stressors, making it difficult to guarantee long-term potency. I guess it's okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 52:48
+Yeah, but I see your point. It's introducing new terms. So then you have to think of what that term mean?
+Rich | 52:54
+Right? Because I just feel like we just rolled out here's how we're going to address stability and oxidation, and now let's go into a case study.
+The case study is not even relevant because it's talking about something that we didn't even connect to begin with to introduce it, right? So either include that in the introduction saying that, look, bioactives like water-fat solubles become problematic or just don't use it at all.
+I think this is great to maintain product efficacy over 18 to 24 months of shelf life. Manufacturers often compensate by formulating for overages, but this workaround comes with tradeoffs: cost increase, right? We talked about that. Regulatory hurdles, right? Overlimits vary by region. We talked about that. Format restrictions and unpredictable degradation.
+This is all again where, if we introduce that whole oxidation, let's reintroduce that as a term, right? It could be caused by oxidation, like nutrient interactions, light, and oxygen, things like that.
+So then the solution is microencapsulation and tailored protective coatings.
+I think this is really good in the solution. I think the other thing we need to emphasize is just thinking back and Josh, definitely jump in here. The other thing I was just thinking is we don't want to... What we don't want to say or what we don't want to give the impression of is that we have manufacturing technologies available to condition these materials.
+That's one part of the story, but to be a true solution provider, it's really about our expertise to pick not only the right technologies but the right formats of the ingredients to make sure that we are proposing the right...
+Because that's what, at the end of the day, you want the essence of. Wow, these guys not only have the right capability and the competencies and the machinery to do it, but that more importantly, they have the expertise, the experience, and the knowledge to fast-track me to success.
+So that's what I think. Again, when we're crafting the opening of the story, when we're talking about the solutions, we should think about those themes and make sure those elements play through in those solutions so that you're not left with...
+Well, I'll just go to Glanbia because I know they can do microcap solutions too, you know what I mean?
+Dimo Stoychev | 56:00
+I sorry, Josh. I think you're on mute.
+Josh | 56:04
+Yes. Sorry, Rich. I think the right way to think about that is we have a reason to believe that's technical formulation and regulatory expertise. This is our ability to pick the right tool in the toolbox. Advanced powder technology is the tools that we have in the toolbox. I think that's how I would definitely think about it.
+Rich | 56:26
+But do you want it to be as transactional as, "Here's the problem, and here's the technology to overcome it"? Do you think a lot of our... I'm just thinking back to our conversations where one of the things that elevated it was to be able to select the right ingredients. That would be less problematic even when you're using that technology, which gives the sense of a bit more like again, your knowledge, expertise, your ability to add value there because if it's just transactional, "Here's the problem, we can micro-encapsulate, we can spray dry, we can granulate it."
+Well, then I'll just go to another company that can granulate because it doesn't matter. So that's why I'm saying in the solution we should have, and I get it. We have another reason to believe that's all about formulations and everything.
+But you just, at least through some of the copy in the language, you want to make it less transactional and more about our expertise to do this over time. Because I think the other thing you want to create is this idea of you have a challenge,
+and we can provide the solution. You want to just leave the user with that feeling. It's not like, "Okay, what's the laundry list of problems and solutions?" It's you know, we can help overcome your product development challenges.
+Josh | 57:54
+Yeah, I mean, we're not a toller to these technologies, right? Like exactly, very few situations. Will a customer come to us and say, "We'll micro-encapsulate that"? What we're saying is, "We've already done the homework, we've got the magic." We don't need to tell you exactly how we're doing the magic. You just trust us that we have the magic, and we're going to use it in your premix.
+This is... We're using... Micro-encapsulation is one of our magic tools, but, yeah, I agree with what you're saying. It's not that we want to make it transactional, but I think we do need a little bit of substance here because we will get the questions of, "Well, what are you doing?"
+Well, we have micro-encapsulation technologies. Okay, that's great. So I think we have to give some substance, but that's about as deep as I think we should go.
+Rich | 58:48
+Okay.
+Josh | 58:49
+If go. that makes sense. Yeah, that's why I think it's important to list the technologies. Maybe both of them, but I don't want to get into the details of the specifics of how we're micro-encapsulating and that we have exactly what types of microncapsulations we have because I don't want to get into discussions where, "Do you guys do micro-encapsulation?"
+So yeah, I think the wording here, the verbiage, is super critical so that we don't get that perception that we do that this is as tolling. It's just that we've got these technologies we embed already. already.
+Rich | 59:56
+All right, so that's a case study 2, perfect balancing act is demand for solutions that deliver more functional benefits grows. Manufacturers are combining a broad range of active ingredients to address this.
+However, this added complexity brings a key risk enabling multiple bioactives to work together without destabilizing one another.
+Josh, do we use the word "bioactive" quite a bit? Is that something that we should? Because that's new to me. me.
+Josh | 01:00:41
+I don't think we've used it in any of our premix messaging. I personally like the use of the word, but it's the first time we've introduced it anywhere in premax. I think typically we just say micronutrients.
+Rich | 01:01:33
+So this is all about adding more functional ingredients to keep pace with the demand of consumers, right? Is that the idea? We're talking about with that electrolytes like you're trying to bring in a whole complex of electrolytes because that's what consumers are asking for without all the extra excipients, sugars, and bad stuff, right?
+So is that the idea here?
+Josh | 01:02:03
+So this one's specifically focused on oxidation. What it's basically saying is that many of those types of ingredients, even the electrolytes that we're talking about earlier, right? Those can often, when added into a multivitamin, speed up the oxidation process.
+We use a lot of different forms and technologies to make sure that doesn't happen. Sometimes those are encapsulations. A lot of our spray-dried minerals have built-in matrix encapsulation technology so that they don't oxidize the other ingredients in a premix.
+This is very common in early life nutrition. That's why we use spray-dried minerals because they do have protective properties that... We do this spray drying, this is our process. We spray-dry those before they go into a premix to make sure that they don't oxidize the other ingredients.
+Rich | 01:03:04
+So.
+cool. That's clear. Any issues, Josh, with that?
+Josh | 01:03:32
+No, not with the challenge. I think the solution does a good job of talking about what I just mentioned again here.
+Rich | 01:03:45
+Harmonious matrices, yeah, we don't really use that language. It's probably more about formulations. So again, you know, the language in the 9 RTV deck we don't use mat.
+Josh | 01:04:05
+This is outside of the language you're talking about. I love the way that we're doing this case study. It's perfect in terms of giving enough to tell our customers these are the solutions that we come with. We're coming with low reactivity minerals via spray drying, encapsulation under the protected vitamins. We have a whole range of different tools in our toolbox of different types of encapsulations.
+The language here is nice because it doesn't really imply that, yeah, we do encapsulation, and you can come to us with your encapsulation need. It's just saying we have protected vitamins that we embedded into our mix.
+I think this is good language.
+Rich | 01:04:53
+Okay, cool. You'll jump to the third, and Josh? Okay, with three case studies, or do you want to limit this to two? How deep? Because I know you were concerned about the length of each one of these, and not all of them will probably have three case studies, but yeah, one...
+This might be cool because then the sales person could pick the case study that most resonates with the problem that our customers are having.
+Josh | 01:05:16
+Yeah, Rich, I know I originally sent an email saying I was concerned about how many slides, but after thinking about it, I think the way we engineered this deck is that it should never all be presented anyway.
+We should pick, and so I think having a few case studies to draw on would be super useful. Yeah, these will all tie back to the demo kit products that we're building, so those will be tied to these case studies too.
+So we'll have a demo to support each of them, so.
+Rich | 01:05:50
+Well because I actually see this section growing rather than being limited and growing in each of the nine. Are to be like we can go back and start to create very similar, consistent case studies for each one is as examples, right?
+And then to your point, salesperson is never going to present the whole thing. But then they can go in and say, "Okay, these are the ones that best fit with it." Then, if you ever... I think Josh, you were talking about this decision tree or whatever it is, the ability to build a presentation based on problems in the future.
+If we're able to do that, then you could tag this slide with the problems, and then it could build a custom presentation for you. So we're setting up the architecture and the content in a way that's going to be the future. The way you're thinking in terms of building these presentations in the future.
+Josh | 01:06:38
+Yeah. For now, I will just need to do a good job training when we train this section out. How to use the relevant case study to tell the story. So the big piece of that would be training in the meantime.
+Okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:06:52
+And to give it the agency perspective, you can never have enough case studies.
+I think you always want more.
+Rich | 01:06:56
+Yeah, I agree. Especially with something like this where the whole idea is it's a service, it's not a product. So.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:07:06
+Yeah, because you never know when the question will be asked, and you want to demonstrate you can do something, but actually, you haven't done the case study for it.
+Rich | 01:07:14
+Fully agreed. A demo. I think the next part of this, once we get the advanced powder technologies complete, is to build a campaign. I think this is where we can leverage a lot of these case studies. We can make a cool information-seeking lead white paper or something with these.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:07:34
+Yeah. No, that's always nice to have. We can always think of how it can be used for nurture, for example, because that's where you have someone who can indicate a specific interest in gums, for example.
+Here you can talk about exactly how we can formulate in that way.
+Rich | 01:07:54
+I love it. Yeah.
+So this is the last one. Next-generation formats without compromise. Emerging supplement formats like gummage, jewel shops, and jails are transforming consumer expectations by offering a tastier and more convenient way to take daily nutrients.
+But these appealing delivery systems come with a hidden cost: bioactivity stability.
+More share environments, common in gummies or other soft formats, accelerate oxidation, cause discoloration, and threaten the stability and efficacy of sensitive bioactives. Now, you're even doing like sensible...
+Maybe just... But I think you get the point. This can result in products' appearance and performance degradation, degrading well before its shelf life ends, risking consumer trust and brand reputation. We can apply our advanced power technologies to optimize stability and sensory performance. The Formulation Tradeoff.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:09:17
+And was a note from Jenny there.
+Rich | 01:09:20
+Yeah, it seems pretty light. You mentioned your vitamin B solution in the case study slides, but do you have more specifics? Compelling example in the performance of the vitamin B5 solution for gummy applications? The formulation is clean label, where no additional acetaminophen is added, and it delivers equal or even superior stability compared to other commercially available options that rely on less label-friendly ingredients.
+Yeah, why can't we make this about that? Can we, Josh? Can't we just use how we added vitamin B5, which is problematic in gummy manufacturing? Yeah, okay.
+Josh | 01:10:06
+For sure.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:10:07
+Yeah. Okay. So we can use that as the example.
+Rich | 01:10:11
+Yes, make it specific, right?
+Yeah, so I think...
+Cool, awesome. Guys, I know we went over, I know this was very detailed. I appreciate your attention.
+Josh | 01:10:49
+We're getting there.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:10:49
+No, thank you. So I'll look at getting this into design next week so then we can do another review. We'll pick the content, but I think it will be more useful to go to it in the PowerPoint because I appreciate it.
+We might make more changes, so I aim to have that for next week so we can go through it together.
+Rich | 01:11:09
+Awesome. Let me set something up for next Friday or something for us to review, or is Jenny off on Fridays?
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:11:17
+Yeah, so next Friday we have a company event, so you basically won't have anyone from BTB available on Friday. We could do Thursday, but maybe just let me confirm timings on our side and we can stop.
+Rich | 01:11:35
+Okay. I'll put something in just as a placeholder, and then we can just move it. Just let me know if it works.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:11:42
+Okay. Yeah. If we do
+Thursday afternoon, I'll confirms.
+Rich | 01:11:49
+Okay. And then, in terms of timing, Josh, for the other case studies and content, what are you thinking?
+Josh | 01:11:59
+So we've got this one for stability and oxidation. Andrea is wrapping up the content for the compression and flowability. And he said that they would have that, I thought, by the end of next week. And then we have most of the content already for the uniformity of mixing because that's primarily going to be the triagulation stuff that we've already built.
+So that's available. Carol is working on the flavor and palatability, or taste and palatability, but she said that won't be until the end of June. And the other two we still need to start, so.
+Rich | 01:12:44
+Okay, so just as a reminder, Josh, if they can drop that stuff into these folders, sure, that'd be great. I'll send you a link again.
+Josh | 01:12:56
+Yeah, I've got the link.
+Rich | 01:12:58
+So you got it. Okay. Yeah. Cooles. Yeah. Because I think once those are set, then we can just lift and shift and move forward pretty quickly. So the other component to this then demo is the one pagers.
+But we said we wanted to get the PowerPoint right first, right? Then we'll do the one pagers.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:13:16
+Yeah. I think we're holding time the week after next to look at the one pages.
+Rich | 01:13:20
+Okay, awesome. So then we can build that as we're building the next one. Okay?
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:13:24
+Yeah. So focus on the PowerPoint next weekck.
+Josh | 01:13:25
+And I like the idea of doing it first. So we've got the template and then it gives Andrea a little better view of, okay, what exactly do we need? So I think getting one done will really help the process for the rest.
+Rich | 01:13:39
+And Josh, when's your training?
+Josh | 01:13:42
+So that's in two weeks. But don't, you don't need to force this if it happens to work, great. Otherwise, I'll proceed with the training piece. I was just hoping to pull in the marketing message if it was done, but if not, that's fine, but it's in two weeks.
+Rich | 01:14:00
+We should have at least one that you can show. Yeah, and the KA is awesome. Great. All right, Dimo, really appreciate the work. Thank you. Thank Jenny for us, and we'll look forward to revision two next week.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:14:18
+I passed it on. Thank you very much.
+Rich | 01:14:20
+All right, man, dial in your macros.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:14:20
+Enjoy the rest of your day. See you.

+Dimo Stoychev | 00:00
+Thank. Im.
+Carmen | 00:04
+Just. one second. Sorry.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:07
+Okay.
+Carmen | 00:17
+Yet I'm back too.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:21
+Hey. How is Caramelo today?
+Carmen | 00:29
+Dep. Now she is.
+Dimo Stoychev | 00:33
+She looks sleepy. [Laughter] No.
+Carmen | 00:36
+She hasn't slept well the night because we decided she was in her litter cage with us. But then the dog kept bothering her, and then she didn't want to be alone until every hour she was awake calling.
+So we were like, "We're here." Then she'd go back to sleep, but she hasn't slept very yeah.
+Emma | 01:05
+Just then, miss her. She's nice colors, you know. Yes, she's quite. I mean, I'm not a cat person, so I can't get excited the way you want me to, but I do think kittens are ce.
+Dimo Stoychev | 01:18
+[Laughter] Start to check it out.
+Emma | 01:26
+I just don't... I really
+think cats are really unpredictable. Here's a cat. Did you hear the word showing you my cat, [Laughter].
+Carmen | 01:37
+Not showing you my cap, TED.
+Emma | 01:40
+He's come for a cuddle. I think he knows I'm about to go to the office.
+Carmen | 01:46
+Bet is really funny with it, though. She keeps looking at her wagging net.
+Emma | 01:50
+Yeah, I was gonna say, how does she take it? Because I feel like you wouldn't take it very well.
+Carmen | 01:54
+Very well, Actually.
+Emma | 01:57
+Betty's really chilled, though, like ce we had there.
+Carmen | 02:02
+There was a bit of growling, but to be honest, it's her who doesn't like Betty more than.
+Emma | 02:09
+Yeah, it's fine, guys. Right.
+Carmen | 02:13
+Let's talk about PacTech without anger, shall we?
+Emma | 02:18
+Yes, well, let's maybe start with anger. Helen was very angry. I was a bit taken aback, and it's not normally me being the angry one, is it? Getting a head up. Whereas I was in the situation, Carmen, [Laughter] I was being like, "Okay, let's just take a step back from this." She just came out with this barrage of stuff.
+So I guess the first thing she stopped by saying was that, overall, on PacTech, they are four days over on their time. I just said, "Look, can we back up a second?" I knew we were over on the strategy project. She declared that to me when I met her in March.
+But what I agreed with her at the time was that the time was two days. So I said to her, "Can I understand why two days over? I don't understand." She said she'd made the recommendation that we have an interim check-in point with the client.
+I don't know what it was for, to check if you were on the right track and stuff. I said, "Right. Okay. So at that point, did you flag that this was going to send us over on time?" She said, "Well, no." At the time, we were doing it as an investment, blah.
+I said, "Okay, that's the key thing there, Helen, is you've done that as an investment. We've taken your recommendation there to have an interim thing." So I went round and round on this, but essentially I just said, "Look, Helen, we agreed then and there we were writing off two days. You agreed that with me."
+I was like, "We need to draw a line under the strategy part. For me, that's done. You've been paid for what you did, and we've been paid for what we did. The strategy is done, we're not going backwards. Then I said, "Where's this extra two days come from? I don't understand."
+So she started going on about all the AI, all the synthetic research that they've done. So I'm obviously going, "Hang on a minute, Helen, I thought that was an investment as well.
+Dimo Stoychev | 04:33
+Yeah.
+Emma | 04:33
+I thought you were doing that as an investment to learn how you could do this AI technology, blah.
+So she said, Yep, that's right. So I said, so, I'm not gonna pay for it. I was like, you're improving your own offering there and using our client as, a means to be able to do that. So she started trying to sell me how she was actually adding value into BDB and we could use this synthes, this AI shit they've done as like a case study for other people.
+And I said, I agree, there's value in it. Helen but I can't use that as a case study for any of our other clients because it's so far removed from everything else that we're doing anywhere else. I was like so if I was going to do a case study and invest in something, it would be on one of our core clients, not on this.
+So as I is your decision to have gone down this route. You told me you were investing time in the AI stuff so that. I mean, as far as I'm concerned again, that's on you. That's not on us.
+Carmen | 05:34
+It's a new offer for Paul as well. So they were clear in the beginning. They were like, "Testing this out.
+Emma | 05:42
+So her big issue with this thing is that we've not spoken to the client about it. The client doesn't know that we've done the work. How are we going to sell more work in if we've not told the client about it?
+So I said, "I can't attest to that. I have not been involved. I don't know what has been presented to the client. She said, at the moment, they've got all the synthetic stuff and then they've got the results of this survey.
+I said, right.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:08
+And then I said.
+Emma | 06:08
+So these hours that we're talking about now, to do with the survey, are they right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:09
+See, II.
+Emma | 06:13
+They're not to do with this synthetic research. The synthetic research was a nice-to-have. The client hasn't asked for it, the client hasn't paid for it. Is that
+yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:21
+Yes. Yeah.
+Emma | 06:22
+Okay, so I said, "So what we're really talking about now is these five hours and how you use these five hours.
+Carmen | 06:28
+Consumer research, though.
+Emma | 06:29
+The consumer research, that's why.
+Carmen | 06:31
+We don't have a survey. So basically, we've got things.
+Emma | 06:34
+One is this is where it's not clear to me then.
+Dimo Stoychev | 06:35
+Yeah.
+Carmen | 06:37
+So one is the survey, which we had a hundred people per country, which we were going to use to inform the content. On top of that, she said, "Let's do the synthetic research." So that's.
+Emma | 06:52
+Just because, right? Yeah.
+Carmen | 06:54
+And reason? First of all, she's basically criticizing how we're handling our client. Whatever. But we haven't presented it yet, just so you know, Mat, because we don't think we can present it yet because the data is contradicting and Dimo and I are going through it right now.
+Okay? The other part is the consumer research, which is what she's debating this five hours about. So basically, she sent us the research and Dimo has gone back in the emails. Basically, she sent us the email with the summarine.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:26
+Yeah. Let's talk about that.
+Emma | 07:27
+I know.
+Dimo Stoychev | 07:28
+Yeah.
+Carmen | 07:28
+So now that's where she's contesting and so where from?
+Emma | 07:35
+I said to her, "You've agreed. I've seen the email. Helen, your demo has come back to you and said executive summary and actionable insights." She said yes, but I think our definition of actionable insights is different. My definition of that is different to demos'.
+I said, "Okay, so what do you think it is?" She says, "I've done the exact summary." I said, "Yes, but in the description to the client, Helen, it says exact summary and actionable insights.
+Dimo Stoychev | 08:04
+The boy?
+Emma | 08:06
+So she's trying to make out like they're not two different things and that we're being like.
+Carmen | 08:11
+Difficult about each five extra hours to do what she's done already.
+Dimo Stoychev | 08:13
+Yeah. What did you do in Textra?
+Emma | 08:15
+Then I don't. So she's saying that these actionable insights and recommendations for their business and the implications for their business is not what she quoted for.
+Carmen | 08:36
+Okay, but why did she include it in the quote then? So I guess my question to Helen now would be, what do you want me to tell the client if he comes back and says, "I can't see action items in here?
+Emma | 08:50
+So what I said to Helen was, "I got it. I was like, 'Right, what do we do about this?' You've got five hours. What do you think is the most... What's going to add the most value to the client in these five hours?"
+She said, "I think the recommendations and implications for their business." So I said, "Can you do that in five hours?" and she said, "Yes, I can, but I can't do a checking call with Carmen and demo and present to the client."
+That is more than five hours. She was like, "Those two calls alone are two hours worth of work." I said, "So three hours isn't enough to do these insights." She said, "No, I'd need the full five."
+I said, "Okay, well, is it an option for you to not present to the client then?" She said, "Yep, happy to do that." So I was like, "Okay, let's do that then." I don't know. So that was her view. I wanted to get your view on what you think is going to add the most value to the client.
+Then we somehow get to the point where she is doing what we want her to do for these five hours.
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:00
+Yeah, I think we spoke about this yesterday. For me, the research dividend is good. We're going to send that research to the client because there's a lot of information there.
+Emma | 10:08
+This is a consumer research, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:10
+The consumer research app.
+Emma | 10:10
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:12
+What we said is we're going to present the findings.
+That's the part where I think needs more work.
+Emma | 10:20
+Is this the... What it means for their business? But.
+Dimo Stoychev | 10:24
+Yeah, but I don't see that as, "Here's what we found. You should change your business strategy to adapt to it." It's more, "This is what we're seeing. We think the opportunity might be more in beverages because that's what consumers are more likely to buy. We're seeing more tendencies towards more sustainable materials there, things like that, which are all in the research."
+It's just not put in a way that we can deliver as findings. That's something that they can use?
+Emma | 10:58
+Just. from my understanding, the actions are for the repercussions for their business. Is that something we could do based on the research that they've sent?
+Carmen | 11:18
+I think we could say, correct me if I'm wrong, Dimo, but we could say, given what we found, you might be better off starting from Country X because awareness about this is stronger and they buy more in bulk.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:33
+Yes.
+Carmen | 11:37
+And like Dimo saying, maybe the vertical you should start from is beverages. While in Italy you should do... I don't know, BS, what? I don't know, but something like that, I think we should be able to do.
+Dimo Stoychev | 11:47
+Yeah.
+Emma | 11:52
+Because I'm just wondering, if we can do that part. Do you? Is it more valuable to have Helen on the call? Like, how... Where do you see her being.
+Carmen | 12:04
+And being able then we BDB can do it. Yes.
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:11
+I thought it's easier for whoever is involved in the research to put that.
+Carmen | 12:16
+I'd feel more comfortable if she did it. Yes.
+Emma | 12:19
+So do you agree then that she can add the most value by pulling together those recommendations? Does she understand that what you just said there, Carmen, is what you're looking for? I don't like.
+Carmen | 12:31
+Because we haven't talked because everything she says is, "Well, I need to charge you more for a minute of my time." Could Dimo prepare an email about what we just elaborated on, Dimo, and then you can validate with Helen.
+Dimo Stoychev | 12:50
+Yp.
+Emma | 12:51
+I think that's the best. Yeah, I think that's the best way to if she's. I mean, especially if she's going to charge you for doing a call to catch up. That's just... She wasted 50 minutes ranting at me yesterday, though. I couldn't get out of the car. I was trying to get out of the car, and I was like, "I need to go to hell." Then, "Are you happy to present without Helen?" I guess that's my next question. I was thinking, because it's almost like a standalone...
+I know it ties into everything else you've been doing, but because it's a standalone piece, can it be presented as its own thing from you guys? I'm not trying, by the way, I'm not trying to give her a way out. I argued. I argued back with her a lot yesterday because even when she kept bringing up the strategy point and the whole interim catch up with the client, I was like, "You made that decision. You made that investment of time the same as we would if we were recommending an interim catch up with the client, not costed in our original thing."
+You would do that as an investment of time for accomplishment? Yeah, it's not my client, though, is it? I totally appreciate that, Helen. But you made that decision, not.
+Carmen | 14:22
+Think think that's the problem. I think she's treating us... I think that's the problem.
+Emma | 14:27
+And she's saying to me she no, not from her perspective, because she's saying to me that she's being so incredibly flexible and investing so much of her time in BDB and I said, what have you invested time in, if you don't mind me asking?
+Dimo Stoychev | 14:45
+So sorry, we were for half an hour for her to join and review the creative concepts.
+Emma | 14:47
+She said, "Go on.
+Dimo Stoychev | 14:52
+So that contradicts what you just said. She didn't do that.
+Emma | 14:56
+Yeah. but then she goes, "I've done four extra days on PakTech." I did an extra day on and over and over again. This was when I started to get angry. I just said, "Right, we're going to have to really clearly, really tightly monitor your time. You're not going to be able to say, right, stick half a day in there for PakTech." I'm going to have Louise going through the scope of work agreement, seeing how much time you've allocated for competitor research, and she is going to book a half a day.
+If you put half a day in, and if you spend more than half a day, that's on you. You're investing more of that time. I was like, "If we've got to be that specific, Helen, then we will be." We've been giving you the freedom to manage time. You can't keep coming at the end of the jobs and saying, "I've run out of time and I need more time."
+It's up to you. She was like, "I'm just finding it really hard working with the team. They don't understand how much time is involved." I was like, "Well, you've been working with us for six months now, Helen, so if you think you need to add an extra half a day on for phone calls with our team, then put that in your proposals going forward." I was like, "Yeah, but then the team pushed back on time." I'm like, "Well, you need to be having that conversation then, don't keep quoting the same thing." I was like, "I've seen the email thread where Dimo confirmed with you that three and a half days was long enough." He was the one who challenged that, and he was the one who added an extra day on.
+Yeah, but the client was already pushing back on time and cost then anyway, weren't they? I was like, "Well then you've got to make a decision as to whether you are willing to do the work for three and a half days or not. We can't force you to work with us, so you need to make that decision.
+Dimo Stoychev | 16:43
+And was no implication for her time. We reduced our time.
+Carmen | 16:46
+But any time we try to be flexible... I completely understand what she says when you maybe start a research project. You estimated 5 hours, but you realized it's more complicated and you need more time. Fine, but tell me.
+Then maybe we can find an agreement. Maybe we can find a time for BTB, which she never wants to do anyway. So I don't think we want to be inflexible, do you know what I mean? I think she goes and works in a silo anyway.
+Emma | 17:19
+So I don't want to get your guys' backs up anymore, but she has said to me that she's found working with you guys on this project more difficult than other projects. I said, "Why? What is it? I don't understand."
+She said she just gave an example on Brabka where they've got a team's chat and how they were connecting after stakeholder calls. Sarah and Ka were sharing their notes, and they had a summary after each call.
+She felt like they were really invested in the various stages of the project and things like that. She felt like she just got more out of them. I was like, "Are you feeding that back in?
+Have you said that you want to work with people in this way when you're working with them?" She said no. I said, "Why? I suggest you do that in the future." If you've got a learning from something that's worked well here on one project, take it forward into your next one.
+Maybe I need to do more to communicate ways of working, what's expected, et cetera. But I was like, "They're not mind readers. Like, if you're not giving them something that you need or that you want, then why can you have a conversation with them?
+Like, I can't be the middleman all the time. So I just wanted to let you know, I don't have the Barrowbroca one was the only concrete example that she gave me. And I thought, well, don't you guys have a. Teams cha with her for pac tech.
+Carmen | 19:06
+She was the one point, but the interviews were that she never raised a single problem. On the interviews, she said she was fine with everything, but my opinion is that... I need to jump in.
+Sorry. You know my opinion, like she... It's not true that she only finds it difficult to work with us because she made a massive fuss about working with Aenna Noveli. Like.
+Emma | 19:28
+And turned. Yeah, she's turned that she's changed that now and said that that's working now, for whatever reason. I don't know how it's changed, to be honest with you, but there's definitely something.
+Carmen | 19:41
+There's definitely, in my opinion, there's definitely something into the fact that we can't... She's not very open to communications and we can't have interim check-ins and because she's going to charge us.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:52
+I.
+Carmen | 19:52
+I don't know. I don't feel like the line of cons is open.
+Dimo Stoychev | 19:55
+People.
+Carmen | 19:56
+And don't forget, she tried to charge us to change a model on the slides that she did herself.
+Emma | 20:03
+No, I know. So.
+Carmen | 20:04
+I think I like.
+Emma | 20:06
+I'm not sitting here, like, defending her. I wanted to make you aware of what she'd said so that you know, for going forward, not... I'm not rapping you over the knuckles or anything with it.
+It's more for your awareness than anything. Like, I know it's hard with that. This whole managing a supplier relationship while trying to position her as a member of our team is difficult. It will never be like that, as far as I'm concerned.
+There's always a monetary angle for her. She's not happy with how I'm proposing to do all the invoicing and the billing at the moment. She keeps bringing it up over and over again, telling me how much I should be putting into a quote to charge clients, and I'm like, "No, I just..."
+I have a head.
+Carmen | 20:59
+So sorry. I'm sure we'll speak again. I'll leave it to you guys.
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:03
+Thank thanks.
+Emma | 21:04
+Yeah, bye.
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:04
+Coming.
+Emma | 21:05
+You are right, then, Dimo, in terms of next steps and handling her. I'll let her know this morning that we're happy to go ahead with... We think she can add the most value by doing the recommendations. You're going to get in touch to give some direction in terms of what we're expecting, are you?
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:27
+Y.
+Emma | 21:28
+Are you all right?
+Otherwise, like, I know it's a fucking pain. The as.
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:34
+I've got three things. So, the consumer research, I'm going to email Helen just to say what to expect, and I'll try to make it as clear as possible.
+Emma | 21:46
+Yes.
+Dimo Stoychev | 21:46
+On the quantitative research,
+the survey that we did the synthetic is definitely an investment, and I am not comfortable showing that to the client because what they gave us isn't like it's basically a lot of findings.
+Emma | 22:04
+It's contradictory, yeah, but yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:04
+Again, and.
+Emma | 22:08
+So at the moment, is it that it's not working together with the other findings that you've got?
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:17
+It's not necessarily that it's not working together, it's just very difficult to say exactly what the findings are from the synthetic because they just gave us a lot of info.
+Emma | 22:26
+Okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 22:28
+So Annab is talking to it now. And Tven, she was a bit unclear because the survey, we have specific questions with specific answers that we get. But the synthetic, we've basically asked some questions and there's a lot of information that we've put together. So, Sarah is a bit lost on the synthetic.
+Emma | 22:46
+She was talking to me about it. In terms of... I can have a conversation with her about this. She was talking to me about it in terms of building personas and stuff, and I said, "Look, don't get me started on the persona track, Helen, because I don't have a clue how anyone is supposed to use personas." We as a business don't know how to use personas.
+She said, "Yeah, actually, I'm not the biggest fan of personas." I said, "So can we have a chat about what it is that you do in terms of... Lindsey gave me some examples of media personas the other day and what people's channel preferences are and stuff.
+Dimo Stoychev | 23:13
+Yeah.
+Emma | 23:26
+And said, "From that, I can understand how we would use that to then do channel planning. I totally get that. What I don't understand is how a generic persona is going to help Annabal do copywriting." The content team at the moment has got no idea how to use a persona. The creative team at the moment has got no idea how to use a persona.
+I don't know if it's because they don't know, because the personas that we're giving them are so crap and so generic that they can't really pull anything out of them or use them. So, it needs to get to the bottom of that.
+So, as I said to her yesterday, I want to see what it is that you're doing because I think then I need to understand how we use it as a business and when and what. There's obviously a threshold whether they're useful or not.
+Then we need to provide the team with guidance on how to use them. So she sort of agreed with me on that, but if so, they've not given you personas, is that right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 24:29
+They have. So they have built personas.
+Emma | 24:31
+They have given me the sales.
+Dimo Stoychev | 24:32
+Yeah, but again, because that's all AI-generated, I'm finding it a bit difficult. I can show you what they've done,
+but at the moment, they think the client paid for the survey. We're finding how to use that.
+Emma | 24:50
+I said that to Helen yesterday, and I was like, "For right now, I couldn't give a shout about the synthetic research unless you're telling me that it is feeding into the other stuff that we've done and adding more value."
+So from your perspective, from your perspective, it's not doing that, is it?
+Dimo Stoychev | 25:09
+That's what tripped both backs and tabs. They started looking into it because they see that synthetic research, they don't get it. There's a lot of information there that they're not sure how to use when you get to the survey.
+That's why it's clear. It makes more sense.
+Emma | 25:26
+Okay, that's really helpful for me to know.
+Dimo Stoychev | 25:27
+But that might be more on our side that we just don't know how to use it. Then that makes sense because it's completely new.
+Emma | 25:35
+Yeah, but then if Helen's investing in it, Helen's got a role to play there in terms of helping us understand how to use that information because she's so keen to sell more of it.
+So I might write, "Well, we've got to do a proof of concept here, haven't we?" and show people what it adds, what you've done, and why it adds value.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:00
+Yeah.
+Emma | 26:01
+Okay, I can share that feedback.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:02
+Cause I asked what the headlines were. And Paul, who did the research, showed me 20 things.
+Emma | 26:08
+Yes, she said this. She brought up this headline thing, and she was like, "Dimo was just asking for more stuff all the time."
+So, from what you've said, it's like you're not asking for more stuff, you're asking to understand how you're meant to use the information that you've been given, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:16
+And I'm not asking for more stuff.
+Emma | 26:24
+What are the key takeaways?
+Yeah, you just want to know. You just want to understand it too much.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:29
+Yeah, and simplify it, because there's just a lot of information. Then for me to understand it, they need to go through all this information, which just goes back to where we were when we had the research team. We just got an overview of the info.
+Emma | 26:44
+When we had Minka, it's just volume.
+Dimo Stoychev | 26:44
+Then what do we do?
+Emma | 26:47
+Yeah, which, by the way, demo... So, that's one of my biggest bugbears with that whole setup that we had. Helen's had that feedback.
+One of my biggest pieces of feedback on that whole thing was we just got reams and reams of crap and no distillation down of the key things that we were actually trying to say to the client.
+I'd used to get competitor reviews, and I'd be like, "Great, okay, what does this mean for our client?
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:13
+I say.
+Emma | 27:17
+So, I mean, Helen does that all very well, but I guess it's... What's the distillation of that synthetic research for us and how does it influence what we do next?
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:28
+Yeah, and the last thing, just so you know, she refused to join the meeting to see the creative, but then she still reviewed the deck on her own.
+Emma | 27:29
+Okay.
+Dimo Stoychev | 27:39
+Then she told me that she likes the creative ideas that we've had.
+So, if you had the time to do it. Why you didn't just spend half an hour with us?
+Emma | 27:46
+Why didn't she? Between you and me, demo...
+On certain days, she's extremely difficult. On other days, she's not. I don't know what it is, but she goes through these peaks and troughs.
+So, on some days, she bends over backwards to help me. Honestly, on some stuff, she's gone way above and beyond to help me. On other stuff, she is so difficult that I'm like, "I don't know what the answer is." Because some of it, I think, comes down to her as a person, and that sounds really bad.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:25
+No.
+Emma | 28:27
+I'm like, assassinating her character, but it's she.
+And what we can't do is like. I mean, I could. I was what I was going to say was I can't really hold her accountable to like our values and stuff because technically.
+Dimo Stoychev | 28:39
+No.
+Emma | 28:41
+But get around the flexibility thing. I don't know what to do about the flexibility thing because ideally, we want to be able to jump on a call with her and go, "Helen, you just talk me through this synthetic research."
+What it means without implication of being slapped with a whole day's worth of time on an invoice. My issue with the... I'm being very open about this, by the way. I feel like I'm moaning openly in the office, which is really bad.
+My worry is she is absolutely rinsing us for time. She's got access to the time sheets so she can always see how much time they've logged on a job and whether they've logged it to the full amount or not.
+So, I think she panicked. Sometimes she's like, "My God, I haven't used all the time on that job." Suddenly, what you'll see is the time all the times full up on the job. Then she'll start trying to say,
+"Right, I've run out of time on this job now and need to get some more." That's what I don't trust about it. She's got a complete overview of our financials on our system.
+Dimo Stoychev | 29:51
+Yeah. Which is in an ideal world, you would want to be comfortable with some of having that and working that way, but treating it as basically being a member of yeah.
+Emma | 29:58
+Yes, but it's not. It's definitely like how, from her perspective, it's definitely like how TPD can make more money. So, I'm reluctant. I've been reluctant to put out any guidance on how to work with TPD because I wanted to see how it goes, and I don't want to be giving people the message that Helen is a member of our team. She should be treated as a member of our team because, in the reality, I don't want her on teams all day long messaging people and then charging us a day for doing that.
+I need to have a really serious think about the guidance. She said something about.
+Dimo Stoychev | 30:55
+What I'm.
+Emma | 30:55
+When she was saying this stuff about what it's been like to work with you and Carmen versus the other teams, I just said, "Why haven't you set up the teams chat then?" I don't understand it.
+Do you know what I mean?
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:08
+Yeah. It's not helpful being on teams because then you don't have any visibility. She's messing me directly, then I have to force the conversation on email so other people can see.
+What the biggest problem for me is that she's gone to Louise directly to ask for time for Pactec.
+Emma | 31:33
+Or so she did. Yeah, well, this is what's... I think this is what's weird about it, because Louise needs to take more control of this, I think, is what I suggested to Helen yesterday on this micromanaging of her time. It's every proposal that she submits and gets approved that needs to be sent to Louise.
+Dimo Stoychev | 31:57
+No.
+Emma | 31:57
+And Louise needs an overview of... If she said she's going to do 3.5 days, how is that 3.5 days? Breaking down so that when Helen says, just stick half a day in here for PAC tech, Louise can go back to the proposal and go,
+"Actually, Helen, you only quoted for three hours on that. I'm only going to put three hours of your time in because I think that's what's happening quite a lot."
+Helen's just going, "Just put half a day in here for this and put two hours in for this plant call.
+Dimo Stoychev | 32:23
+Yeah, that's what I noticed, so.
+Emma | 32:26
+And then before you know it, she's eaten away at the time that she quoted. So, I need Louise in that instance because, in this case, you haven't got a PM either. I need Louise in that instance to be like, "No, Helen, you said on this job that it was a half a day or a full day or two days or whatever it is."
+Then she can start pushing back. But at the moment, we get on a call on a Friday afternoon, and Helen just dictates to Louise what to put in the schedule, and we're trusting that Helen is giving us the right amounts of time.
+But clearly, that's not happening because she's complaining about every single job saying that it's gone over. So.
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:07
+Okay, good to know it's actually what's happening, but I agree, I think we need some guide rails around it.
+Emma | 33:17
+Yeah, all right, I'll message her now and say it's the consumer research, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:20
+Okay? It's okay, we'll get there.
+Emma | 33:29
+Sorry, I didn't realize there were three projects. I thought it was two. So it's the consumer research. The remaining five hours are to be spent doing the implications for the business.
+You're going to provide some direction on what we think that should look like. Okay, cool. I'm sorry, I feel like it's all my fault and I don't know how to fix it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 33:51
+It's not your fault. In what we got her to do was the strategy, and she's good at the strategy. I think everything else is where we have issues.
+Emma | 34:03
+She is not taking into consideration that the rest of it is, I think, actually quite new for the fact that she had to onboard Paul to do this project. Even for the survey, it was like she was onboarding him, wasn't she?
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:16
+No.
+Emma | 34:17
+It wasn't like they'd worked together for years and knew what they were working on. Do you know what I mean?
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:22
+Yeah. I think with the research, it was at least the first time we were doing this, and I wasn't clear what we were doing because they didn't introduce it very well.
+Emma | 34:36
+I think it's because they weren't clear and they're trying to figure it out. They go along.
+Dimo Stoychev | 34:40
+He.
+Emma | 34:41
+But now she's trying to pass that on to us and say it's having an impact on their business. They're not making enough money off this job.
+I'm like, "You need to take some responsibility for the fact that you suggested doing the synthetic research, and BDB is not making any money off that to the client."
+She was like, "That's my point, Emma. We've not even told the client that we're doing it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:05
+No.
+Emma | 35:06
+And I'm like, I can't attest to why we haven't, but I will go and find out. So, the feedback to her on that is, "At this current time, we do not understand the value of that research and how it is feeding into the rest of the project, and we need to demonstrate that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:20
+Yeah, and we never said we're showing at the client.
+Emma | 35:20
+Do you agree?
+Dimo Stoychev | 35:23
+We said, "Let's see what the results are." Then, if we find it useful, then we can show it.
+Emma | 35:26
+Yeah, okay, I think that's fine. So, I definitely don't want you and Carmen to think that I'm sat here fucking agreeing with Helen. I had a really arduous 50-minute conversation with her where I just kept saying,
+"Yeah, but we're not going to pay you any more money." I kept saying to her, Helen, if you want the result of this call to be me agreeing to give you more time, I'm not doing it.
+So, you've got five hours left. How do you want to use the time
+I think that was the best outcome. Obviously, the best outcome would have been that she does everything that we wanted her to do in the five hours, but there's absolutely no way she was going to do that.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:08
+And c yeah, and that's fine.
+Emma | 36:11
+So I just went for it. Put the ball in your cart. What do you think is the best use of time?
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:18
+I don't mind presenting.
+Emma | 36:19
+Yeah.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:19
+It's just having something to present that will make to the client.
+Emma | 36:27
+But this was my thing with Minka. I never knew what the pullouts were anyway, right?
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:32
+Yeah, no, thank you very much.
+Emma | 36:37
+Thank you, and I'm sorry. At least it's a cool project that you've got to work on. That's my silver lining.
+We've done something we've never done before.
+Dimo Stoychev | 36:47
+Yeah, it's. I mean, it's all very interesting. I think now we have the problem of we have too much to work with. Which is we never have that problem.
+Emma | 36:58
+No. we never ever have that many insights, do we?
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:01
+Yeah, I think.
+Emma | 37:04
+Well, I'm hoping we can do a lovely case study out of it and show the rest of the team, and it'll be beautiful in the end. You just won't be able to have any of Helen's help
+because she will pay. She will make. She charges for it.
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:16
+Yeah, it's okay. Thanks, Ma.
+Emma | 37:21
+Thanks, Deon. See you later.
+Dimo Stoychev | 37:22
+See you. Have a good day. Thanks, bye.

Add print statements to understand what's going on, and then come up with your own variations.<br/><br/>If you have time, I'd love it if you submit a PR for changes in the community_contributions folder - instructions in the resources. Also, if you have a Github account, use this to showcase your variations.

+    "In the original 2_lab2.ipynb, we explored a powerful agentic design pattern: sending the same question to multiple large language models (LLMs), then using a separate “judge” agent to evaluate and rank their responses. This approach is valuable for identifying the single best answer among many, leveraging the strengths of ensemble reasoning and critical evaluation.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "However, selecting just one “winner” can leave valuable insights from other models untapped. To address this, I am shifting to a new agentic pattern in this notebook: the synthesizer/improver pattern. Instead of merely ranking responses, we will prompt a dedicated LLM to review all answers, extract the most compelling ideas from each, and synthesize them into a single, improved response. \n",

+# 🧠 Resume-Job Match Application (LLM-Powered)
+
+![AnalyseResume](AnalyzeResume.png)
+
+This is a **Streamlit-based web app** that evaluates how well a resume matches a job description using powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) such as:
+
+- OpenAI GPT
+- Anthropic Claude
+- Google Gemini (Generative AI)
+- Groq LLM
+- DeepSeek LLM
+
+The app takes a resume and job description as input files, sends them to these LLMs, and returns:
+
+- ✅ Match percentage from each model
+- 📊 A ranked table sorted by match %
+- 📈 Average match percentage
+- 🧠 Simple, responsive UI for instant feedback
+
+## 📂 Features
+
+- Upload **any file type** for resume and job description (PDF, DOCX, TXT, etc.)
+- Automatic extraction and cleaning of text
+- Match results across multiple models in real time
+- Table view with clean formatting
+- Uses `.env` file for secure API key management
+
+## 🔐 Environment Setup (`.env`)
+
+Create a `.env` file in the project root and add the following API keys:
+
+```env
+OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key
+ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-anthropic-api-key
+GOOGLE_API_KEY=your-google-api-key
+GROQ_API_KEY=your-groq-api-key
+DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=your-deepseek-api-key 
+```
+
+## ▶️ Running the App
+### Launch the app using Streamlit:
+
+streamlit run resume_agent.py
+
+### The app will open in your browser at:
+📍 http://localhost:8501
+

+    "\n",
+    "- **Must Have** – Critical requirements that are essential for the system to function.  \n",
+    "- **Should Have** – Important requirements that add significant value, but are not critical for initial delivery.  \n",
+    "- **Could Have** – Nice-to-have features that can enhance the product, but are not necessary.  \n",
+    "- **Won’t Have (for now)** – Low-priority features that will not be implemented in the current scope.\n",
+    "\n",

+    "\n",
+    "This notebook uses the OpenAI library (via the Gemini API) to extract and validate software requirements from a natural language description. The workflow follows these steps:\n",
+    "\n",
+    "1. **Initial Validation**  \n",
+    "   The user provides a textual description of the software. The model evaluates whether the description contains enough information to derive meaningful requirements. Specifically, it checks if the description answers key questions such as:\n",
+    "   \n",
+    "   - What is the purpose of the software?  \n",
+    "   - Who are the intended users?  \n",
+    "   - What are the main features and functionalities?  \n",
+    "   - What platform(s) will it run on?  \n",
+    "   - How will data be stored or persisted?  \n",
+    "   - Is authentication/authorization needed?  \n",
+    "   - What technologies or frameworks will be used?  \n",
+    "   - What are the performance expectations?  \n",
+    "   - Are there UI/UX principles to follow?  \n",
+    "   - Are there external integrations or dependencies?  \n",
+    "   - Will it support offline usage?  \n",
+    "   - Are advanced features planned?  \n",
+    "   - Are there security or privacy concerns?  \n",
+    "   - Are there any constraints or limitations?  \n",
+    "   - What is the timeline or development roadmap?\n",
+    "\n",
+    "   If the description lacks important details, the model requests the missing information from the user. This loop continues until the model considers the description complete.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "2. **Summarization**  \n",
+    "   Once validated, the model summarizes the software description, extracting its key aspects to form a concise and informative overview.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "3. **Requirements Generation**  \n",
+    "   Using the summary, the model generates a list of functional and non-functional requirements.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "4. **Requirements Validation**  \n",
+    "   A separate validation step checks if the generated requirements are complete and accurate based on the summary. If not, the model provides feedback, and the requirements are regenerated accordingly. This cycle repeats until the validation step approves the list.\n",
+    "\n",
+    "5. **MoSCoW Prioritization**  \n",
+    "   Finally, the validated list of requirements is classified using the MoSCoW prioritization technique, grouping them into:\n",
+    "   \n",
+    "   - Must have  \n",
+    "   - Should have  \n",
+    "   - Could have  \n",
+    "   - Won't have for now\n",
