TASER
BRAND STRATEGY • IDENTITY DESIGN • CAMPAIGN DEVELOPMENT
Ubiquitous in the world of law enforcement, the TASER story was not quite in the same place with the general public. Founded in 1993, the company had not launched a new consumer product since 2016 with and struggled with an unaided brand awareness rating of 2.7%.
The mandate was clear: Re-imagine the brand and the products for the consumer space.
We refreshed the brand's visual language and messaging, inspired by the technology and brand ethos. We launched two new TASER hardware products, a personal safety app, and a line of branded accessories and apparel. Read on for some of the highlights.

New Product Launches
Armed with consumer insights and gap in the market identified, we set out to launch two new devices. Each one had the same objectives. First, to appeal to a non-firearm audience seeking an effective, non-lethal self defense solution. Then to enter the retail market with design and packaging that positioned the products closer to consumer electronics than Smith & Wesson. This strategy came together in the shape of three new products , the TASER Bolt 2, The TASER StrikeLight 2, and Axon Protect, the safety companion app.
While this video was staged, real events like this are unfortunately way too common. This video was designed to introduce our audience to the product’s key features.
