Directed Thought Bubbling™ is a process,
developed and run by Directives, to assist you in rapidly coming up with
innovative product and marketing ideas that can make a real difference
to the way you do business. In Directed Thought Bubbling™
we use proven creative thinking techniques in a workshop environment,
to generate ideas and harness the creativity within your company. We then
build on these ideas and sculpt them into new product concepts, product
enhancements or marketing initiatives, tailored to your requirements.
Our Directed Thought Bubbling™ process
takes a lot of the hit and miss out of new product or concept development.
It saves you money by significantly speeding up the development process
and targeting your design efforts to areas that will really make a difference
to your business!
Directives are Innovation Consultants; our passion is creating new products
- but we’re not your typical whacky inventors. We have a strong
track record in product development, technical research, engineering,
marketing, market research and product championing with combined experience
of over 40 years. We have helped companies conceive and develop a portfolio
of products which include globally successful innovations in the manufacturing
and IT industries. Our clients include startups, SMEs and corporates.
We have also lecturered at Masters degree level in creativity and innovation techniques.

At Directives we think ideas are a lot like bubbles. They can be exquisitely
beautiful and at the same time incredibly delicate - one touch of reality
and they can burst, leaving you with nothing but a disillusioned bubble
blower. Right now there are people within your organisation with great
ideas that could, if uncorked, significantly change the way you do business.
But often the pressure of being hermetically sealed by the “corporate
corker” means that their great ideas never bubble to the surface
– let alone be explored and turned into great products! They’re
either too busy with the day to day running of the business and don’t
have time to be “creative” or they don’t feel safe enough
to express their ideas, because they know there’s always someone
waiting to burst their bubble with a well meaning and practical “it’ll
never work!”.
But imagine if you could uncork
all those ideas, put some fizz into your team,
do some serious bubble blowing and come up with completely new ideas?
Then take those ideas and turn them into concepts that would really
make a difference?
That’s where Directives’, Directed Thought Bubbling™
can help, as we work with you through a 6 stage process that leads to
exciting innovations that can change your business.

And all this bubble generation, simmering,
shaking and sculpting
has taken less than a week!
We know that you’ll see the value in Directed Thought
Bubbling™ particularly when you compare it to the
time and cost of conceiving products the traditional way. And we know
that you’ll be excited by the new product and marketing concepts
that emerge during the thought bubbling sessions. It really is a great
way to get your team involved, energised and excited about innovation
in your company.

As some of our recent clients have said …
“I love this process! I can’t believe
what we’ve achieved in only a few days … in the past it
would have taken months to get to the same point! We were able to uncover
critical flaws and benefits much earlier in the process.”
Product Manager
“Normally we’re just given a specification and told to go
ahead … I really enjoyed being part of
creating this product … I feel part of this project.”
Design Engineer
At the end of the Directed Thought Bubbling™
process you and your team will have participated in two creative thinking
workshops, the first workshop having generated in excess of 300 ideas!
Directives will have simmered and sculpted the ideas and provided you
with an organised record of all the ideas generated during the process.
(You can choose to come back at a later date to sculpt any of these ideas
into great concepts too!) We’ll also provide you with a summary
of the final sculpted idea and our recommendations for developing your
concept further.
