10 Reasons it might be time to rebrand


Brand Strategist and Designer Jennifer Birkhead

Ever felt that itch for change, that desire to hit the refresh button on your brand? Well, you're not alone! Having just done a rebrand for myself I thought this could be valuable to some of you too!

So, let's chat about some signs that maybe, just maybe, it's time to consider a rebrand.


1. Changing Market Conditions

Shift in Target Audience:  If your audience has grown and your brand needs to catch up, a rebrand can align you better.

Increased Competition:  Feeling the heat of new players? A rebrand can help you stand tall in a crowded field.


2. Outdated Brand Image

Aged Visual Identity:  Like fashion, design trends change. An outdated logo or color scheme might need a stylish upgrade.

Obsolete Messaging:  If your messaging feels like last season's news, it's time for a fresh script.


3. Expansion or Diversification

Business Growth:  Growing bigger? A rebrand can be your growth spurt, accommodating changes and saying, "Hello, world!"

Mergers and Acquisitions:  After a merger, let's create a brand harmony that sings in unison.


4. Inconsistent Branding

Lack of Brand Consistency:  Consistency is key! If your brand looks like it's having an identity crisis, a rebrand can bring everyone back in line.

Mixed Messages:  Sending mixed signals? Let's make your brand's message clear, loud, and harmonious.


6. Low Brand Recognition

Limited Brand Awareness:  If your brand is feeling a bit like a wallflower, let's give it a makeover and make it the belle of the ball.


7. Evolution of Values and Mission

Shift in Values:  Growing wiser? Let your brand wisdom shine with a reflection of your evolved values.


8. Customer Feedback

Consistent Negative Feedback:  Friends don't let friends ignore feedback. If it's not working, let's fix it together.


9. Strategic Planning

Shift in Strategy:  New goals, new dreams? A rebrand can be the visual representation of your exciting new journey.


10. Desire for a Fresh Start

Yearning for Renewal:  Sometimes, you just want to hit the reset button. A rebrand is your chance for a fresh, vibrant start.



Before diving into the world of rebranding, remember, it's like redecorating your home – plan, get professional advice when needed, and create a strategy that makes your brand sing in harmony with your audience.
