Rebranding & Brand Revitalisation

When market position, organisational direction, strategic drift or growth evolution have made the existing brand less clear, less differentiated or less aligned with where the business needs to go then brand revitalisation or rebranding becomes a strategic consideration.

Rebranding, brand revitalisation and relaunching can take many guises from the complete wholesale strategic change of an organisation, company, service or product, inside and out, including name, culture, values, behaviours, tone, visual collateral and all that entails with no connections to the legacy entity, to something less dramatic and of a more evolutionary nature in the form of a brand refresh. In all cases, change should be for strategic reasons driven by organisational or business strategy at leadership level—not merely design aesthetics.

Brand is Leadership Made Visible

Brand Performance Reflects Leadership

Rebranding is Typically a Strategic Signal—Not a Design Decision

Most organisations do not reach a rebranding or brand revitalisation point because they simply want a new identity for their business, product or service.

The pressure usually emerges from deeper shifts such as:

In many cases, the visible brand issue is actually a signal of a broader strategic clarity issue inside the organisation.

Strategic Repositioning Requires Internal Alignment—Not Just External Change

The strongest repositioning work happens when:

Without this, organisations often relaunch externally while internal ambiguity and underlying problems remain unresolved—creating inconsistency between strategy, communication and execution.

  • strategic repositioning without destabilising performance

Signs an Organisation May Need Strategic Repositioning Rather Than Incremental Brand Change

  • The business has evolved but the market still sees an outdated version
  • Different teams describe the organisation differently
  • Growth has diluted strategic focus
  • Competitors are becoming harder to distinguish from
  • Leadership is aligned on ambition but not positioning
  • Acquisitions or expansion have weakened coherence
  • The organisation competes increasingly on price rather than distinction
  • Market perception no longer reflects organisational capability

Rebranding & Brand Revitalisation Change for Strategic Growth

In all instances though, the transformation when strategically driven, to whatever degree, affects a change at leadership level as well as throughout the broader organisation. Rebranding and brand revitalisation, when done well, also positively impacts stakeholders and the minds of the external target market in terms of their perceptions of the brand—that represents the organisation, product or service.

That change, depending the level from slight to radical, is a process of giving an organisation, product or service a new positioning, relative to competitors. The visuals or image changes can be subtle or significantly different depending on the underlying strategy driving the change—in order to make the business, product or service more successful. 

Positioned and developed correctly brands offer a means of generating sustained growth, enabling companies to charge a premium. Equally, they also assist a company to resist or bounce back from competitor attack.

Strong brands are business assets and consequently typically key to a company’s long-term ability to thrive and sustain market leadership. Accountants and auditors the world over calculate the value of brands when determining book values on the company balance sheets. In the case of strong brands, the brand can be 70% – 90% of the stock market value (intangible assets).

Rebranding is a complex process and should not be engaged lightly. You should definitely consider re-evaluating your baseline using a brand audit to identify your brand’s weak spots and hidden issues. It can also be used to help you identify new opportunities for innovation and growth.

Handled badly, rebranding can be damaging to business. Equally in the words of a Chinese proverb “if you do not plan for the future, you will get the one that shows up” so strategically driven rebranding or brand revitalisation can, and should, add significantly to a company’s long-term success.

Rebranding, Brand Revitalisation, Brand Leadership & Leadership Alignment

When you look at the Brand Leadership Framework and the Leadership Friction Framework it becomes clearer how brand strategy is an important leadership function and consequently, the alignment of the full leadership team is critical to organisational and commercial success.

The Leadership Alignment work did not emerge separately from the earlier Brand Leadership work. It grew from the same repeated pattern—Brand performance reflects leadership decisions before leadership teams fully recognise their effects. 

Persona Brand Leadership Framework

It helps you achieve:

Why Engage in a Rebrand, Brand Revitalisation or Refresh Your Brand & Relaunch?

The reasons for rebranding, brand revitalisation and or relaunching a company, product or service are numerous and should not be taken on lightly without sound strategic reasons for engaging in the process. 

Brands are constantly evolving to ensure they keep abreast of changing needs in the market place. It’s the level of change required that is the critical issue. A brand audit and market research will help assess the rate of change required amongst other things.

Even some of the greatest brands in the world need rejuvenation. Brands like Guinness, Coca-Cola and Kellogg’s are iconic, global in their status. Yet when you look at their market leadership over the decades, they have all changed even if it has been in a more evolutionary sense over time, rather than radical overhauls. However, some branding does require an extensive change in order for the business to achieve the required regeneration for growth and profitable returns.

Revitalisation maintains and celebrates the history and heritage of the brand but shows its target audience (current and future) that you are adaptive to change. Change is necessary to stay relevant to the times in which a brand exists and to ensure its future success.

Reasons for Rebranding, Brand Revitalisation & Relaunch

 

1. Relevance

Brands need to stay relevant to their target market, to keep up with the times and keep pace with changing customer needs (e.g. services, accessibility, convenience, choice, changing trends, technology). A brand that has become old-fashioned or irrelevant in the eyes of its audience is in danger of stagnation if not already in a state of erosion and loss of market share.

 

2. Competition

In a fast moving environment with aggressive competition or simply the rate of change in an AI accelerated world, rebranding may be required to change the offering to the market in order to create a more compelling reason to buy in the minds of the target audience. Rebranding can be used as a means of blocking or outmanoeuvring competitors or a way of handling increased price competitiveness.

 

3. Globalisation

Sometimes rebranding is required because of globalisation where the same product sold across multiple markets is inconsistent or different e.g. Marathon’s change to Snickers, Opal Fruits change to Starburst, Jif’s change to Cif. 

 

4. Mergers & Acquisitions

When two entities combine there are typically two unique audiences left to communicate with. Sometimes this can require a rebrand or relaunch in a way that will appeal to both. In other cases one of the brands may be more dominant requiring more of a revitalisation or refresh with it becoming the sole dominant player. 

 

5. Innovation

Technology is constantly evolving and the rate of change often exponential. If a brand is technology related e.g. AI, internet, software, hardware and the product offering is constantly innovating then a rebrand frequently follows the natural and fast rate of change. Rebranding or revitalisation becomes an outward expression of the companies evolution and ensures the brand’s change hungry customers keep coming back to see “what’s new”.

 

6. Repositioning

Taking a brand to a new position is an involved process e.g. from an economy price fighter to premium position, and invariably requires a strategic repositioning with the rebrand to signal a change in direction, focus, attitude or strategy to its target market. Also again rebranding can be used as a means of blocking or outmanoeuvring competitors or a way of handling increased price competitiveness.

 

7. Rationalisation

Rebranding can be used to decrease business development and operational costs, or a way of countering declining profitability or consumer confidence. It can also be used where there are complex and sometimes confusing mixes of product portfolios which frequently undermine the brands impact, (along with considerable advertising, branding clutter and media proliferation) all of which causes brand incongruence, inconsistency and audience fragmentation and consequently badly needs consolidation through rebranding to achieve brand impact and strong growth again.

 

8. Outgrowth

When small companies grow into bigger entities they and/or their products frequently require a rebrand or revitalisation to meet the needs of the bigger business. Typically smaller companies start with more modest brand offering, due to budget restrictions, which are inadequate to meet the needs of a bigger more sophisticated business and a rebrand is required.

 

9. Legal Requirements

Occasionally legal issues may arise that require a company to make changes to their branding such as copyright issues or bankruptcy e.g. similarities between naming and designs. For example The Jelly Bean Factory became The Jelly Bean Planet in Ireland to ensure differentiation from the USA brand Jelly Belly.

 

10. Morale & Reputation

If a company brand has demoralised employees or confused customers then a rebrand may required. A thorough rebrand process including strategic repositioning and leadership realignment works to unearth the issues that need addressing and are resolveable through key changes. Work in this context often entails a completely new value proposition and positioning in the market, supported by a visual change or look and feel, to the organisation. A rebrand of this type typically improves a brand’s competitiveness by creating a common sense of purpose and unified identity, building staff morale and pride, as well as a way of attracting new customers, enhancing relationships with existing customers and attracting the best talent to the business.

    • Leadership Friction When Strategy Moves Faster Than Leadership

    Strategy does not usually fail at execution first.

    It fails where leadership friction accumulates.

    The Different Aspects of Rebranding & Brand Revitalisation

    Rebranding, brand revitalisation or a brand refresh can be as small scale as some subtle changes to the company, service or product visual assets e.g. brand identity, packaging tweaks, sales literature updates, vehicle livery, staff uniforms and website refresh or as major as a full scale strategic repositioning, name and culture change affecting both the intangible and tangible aspects of the brand.

     

    Rebranding or brand revitalisation typically includes a combination of the items listed below:

    1. Brand positioning
    2. Brand strategy development
    3. Brand hierarchy / brand architecture
    4. New brand name
    5. Brand identity, brand logo, trademark, tagline or slogans 
    6. Graphics, brand imagery, online presence i.e. website, apps, social media presence etc.
    7. Marketing campaigns
    8. Company or product livery, uniforms, stationery, digital presentations
    9. Packaging
    10. Product displays, exhibition stands, signage & way-finding systems
    11. Exterior and interior design
    12. Advertising, on and offline
    13. Movies, videos and show reels
    14. New product launches, differentiations, extensions or enhancements
    15. A change in brand profile, purpose, vision, values, mission, goals, story, message, promise, offerings, personality, emotion, behaviours, tone of voice, culture, brand experience, customer care and so forth.

    What’s Involved in the Rebrand or Brand Revitalisation Process?

    When considering a rebrand you typically need to include:

    1. Rebrand planning, a brand audit health check, research and recommendations
    2. Brand strategy re-evaluation and update
    3. Application design for all touch points
    4. Brand implementation, launch and rollout
    5. Internal brand launch, team brand induction and brand champion training
    6. External communications of rebrand to all relevant stakeholders; customers, media and shareholders
    7. Measure of impact and commercial return

    Reasons Not to Start Rebranding or Brand Revitalisation

    While the strategic evaluation, in term of pros and cons, on whether to rebrand or not can be as complex as the process itself, the following reasons not to engage in a rebrand or brand revitalisation are worth reflection on too.

     

    1. A young brand

    If a brand has only been on the market a short time e.g. 2 years, bearing in mind time can be measured differently depending on your market/industry, then it’s probably premature to rebrand. It takes time to build a brand and evolve it into something authentic and meaningful to its target audience. Rebranding to “sell” more in such instances might be better served by a different approach to marketing or a new campaign unless the existing brand solution is very flawed.

     

    2. Change for the sake of change

    It’s not a good idea to rebrand just because “you want to” or because somebody wants to stake their next career move on a rebrand. If there is no compelling strategic or commercial reason e.g. new innovation, behaviours, culture and all the other reasons mentioned above, then the target audience will be left with an empty experience. On top of that, you’ve wasted a lot of resources.

    The Top Rebranding or Brand Revitalisation Mistakes to Avoid

    1. Do not think branding or a rebrand for that matter is just the logo, website or corporate colours in isolation.

    Effective branding encompasses robust strategy underpinning and directing both tangible and intangible elements, a large part of what has been listed previously e.g. target audience, customer experience and perception, product quality, look, feel, online and offline environments, customer facing staff, the tone of all communications both visual, auditory and written etc.

     

    2. Don’t cling to the old unless it has key brand heritage or provenance that is still relevant to the current target market.

    Powerful rebranding means being connected to what really matters to your bull’s eye customer. Don’t assume because it worked in the past it’s still relevant now. Research, review and analyse changes in your target market when investigating new opportunities for repositioning, expansion or revitalisation.

     

    3. Don’t overlook existing brand equity and goodwill.

    Ignoring brand equity when rebranding can alienate existing customers and potentially damage a brand’s perception. A massive overhaul may be excessive when a smaller evolution would be more appropriate. Ensure you use a brand audit to re-establish your baseline and are fully up-to-date on the mindset and needs of your target market before engaging in the process.

     

    4. Don’t forget to step into your customer’s shoes.

    Hire a secret shopper with a profile that matches your target market and have them engage with your brand at all relevant touch points e.g. engage members of your customer facing team with an enquiry, navigate your website, buy your products or services, make a customer complaint to see how it’s handled or not as the case may be. Have them record their experiences in detail and report back. Perceptions internally are often a mismatch between reality on the ground. It can be very revealing and is an essential aspect of your rebrand research and brand audit health check.

     

    5. Don’t rebrand without research.

    How much do you know about your current and prospective customers – their needs, wants, loves, hates, aspirations and behaviours etc? What is their compelling reason to buy? Do you need to re-evaluate your purchaser personas as part of your brand audit health check? They should be front of mind when creating new solutions and revitalising old ones too. They are your ultimate litmus test.

     

    6. Don’t treat your rebrand superficially.

    A rebrand must be strategic and driven by the leadership team. The reasons for engaging in the process need to thoroughly validated, pressured tested, authenticated and believable throughout, internally and externally. The outcomes must deliver on all the objectives set and agreed at leadership level. The change need to meet and exceed customer perceptions and experiences. It must hold credibility and deliver down to the last detail both amongst your day-to-day staff and target audience or it’s largely tokenism, a waste of time and resources.

     

    7. Don’t rebrand without a rigorously developed plan.

    Rebranding requires robust strategic underpinning from which all direction, including clearly defined briefs follow, to keep everyone on track as the project evolves. Your plan should include every aspect of the rebrand e.g. situation analysis, objectives, target markets, budget, resources, time frames, explicit leadership decision ownership with appointed project leader, known parameters, approval structures, stakeholders and metrics for assessing results.

     

    8. Don’t overlook the basics.

    Having a stunning website, market materials, physical environment or amazing product solution is wasted if the fundamentals of your customer services sucks. Equally, if your brand purchasing or processing experience falls short, the brand becomes undermined. Keep all your customer touch points and basic interactions in mind as much as the more glamorous aspects when rebranding. Review, fine tune and improve and don’t underestimate the ordinary essentials, they are just as important.

     

    9. Don’t overlook feedback from customer facing staff.

    The staff who interact with your customers on a daily basis can yield valuable information and insights into your target market. This is where customers are typically at their most candid and the information garnered from the real world is just as valuable if not more in some cases, then other forms of research.

     

    10. Don’t think you’re too small to rebrand.

    Every brand needs revitalising to stay relevant as markets evolve whether the brand is a global multinational or smaller national brand, even non-profits and artisan brands are not immune. Like larger brands, smaller brands have target markets, positioning etc. that need to be kept relevant and enhanced. They too have to move with the changes of their market and customer preferences or disappear into the mists of time.
