Rebranding Strategy
WE BUILD SUCCESSFUL BRANDSWhat Is Rebranding?
Branding is one of the most powerful tools in the arsenal of a marketing professional as it encompasses what makes a business different, what it stands for, and how it is perceived within the industry and by the general public. Consisting of all the elements beyond the surface-level products and services offered by the business, branding is a highly influential yet often intangible element of marketing that plays a large role in attracting customers to a business. Often an unspoken yet very familiar and commonly shared understanding, quality branding has the potential to transform a business and take its operation to the next level.
However, the great power of branding can also work to the detriment of your business. Often, the associations that individuals hold for a business overpower the business’s internal efforts to carve out a unique brand identity, and their name, image, and products can be tainted. Has your business suffered from this and encountered a tumultuous period? Has your business undergone significant change in a short space of time? Or is your business simply unable to meaningfully connect with customers and create long-term relationships?
Rebranding may be the answer to your problems. A service that sees a business alter its image visually and metaphorically, rebranding allows a business to entirely or partially adjust its perception. The devoted marketing professionals at RGC have undertaken a number of rebranding efforts for various firms in a number of industries. Each of the rebranding strategies carried out by our team holds a strategic focus, ensuring the new brand identity we create reinvigorates your business and truly captures the essence of your operation and what makes you different.
Our Approach To Rebranding
Personification
People relate more to brands and objects that have human-like features. That’s a universal truth that has informed marketing strategies for a number of decades, and our team takes great inspiration from this in their rebranding efforts. Regardless of the service you provide or the products that you sell, creating a branding strategy with tangible qualities that your customers can relate to is inevitably the most effective way forward. The way that we do this at RGC is largely through a process of personification. We draw inspiration from the idiosyncrasies of your operation and the culture within your business and then we consider the personality and various other features that characterise your customers.
Following this extensive research process, we bridge the gap with human-like qualities that fittingly represent your business and form a likeable image that your audience can relate to. Trust is hugely important to branding, and that’s why we create a brand personality that your audience can resonate with and identify as reliable and genuine. Rebranding to focus on human-like qualities is central to this, process. Branding is an intensely emotive notion that can result in loyalty that overrides financial or even logistical considerations, and the most influential brands are those that occupy a special place within their customers’ hearts and minds.
Draw From Within
To effectively rebrand your business, we’ll always look internally and consider whether your existing brand personality is adequately representing your business and what truly makes you different from your competitors. While it is very important for your brand personality to resonate with your customers, this should never come at the expense of transmitting an image that’s not an accurate display of your business. By only researching your customers and failing to consider whether their preferences align with the nuances of your business, your brand strategy won’t be designed for long-term success.
It’s crucial that we draw inspiration from within your brand and carve out your unique identity from the existing features of your business. Following this, we’ll be able to help your business instigate relationships with those customers that best fit your brand and what you can offer. This matching process must be natural and simply cannot be contrived or manufactured, but only facilitated through effective promotional measures. A brand personality that is solely built around the customers of a business simply will not be successful in the long run. However, by focusing on catering to customers with similar values, opinions, and morals as your own business, you’ll be able to offer higher levels of satisfaction and fortify a successful future.
When Should My Business Rebrand?
While rebranding can offer a wide range of benefits to a business, this is a highly specialised marketing initiative that should only be undertaken when necessary. Nonetheless, a number of different circumstances may arise that make rebranding a wise investment for your business.
While rebranding can offer a wide range of benefits to a business, this is a highly specialised marketing initiative that should only be undertaken when necessary. Nonetheless, a number of different circumstances may arise that make rebranding a wise investment for your business.
A partial rebranding is often necessary for established brands that have been in operation for a number of decades, and this is inevitable as visual design trends change and public perception and societal norms shift. Logos and visual components of your branding will often require reinvigoration and a new design that sparks new life into your branding efforts, and this will be experienced on several occasions throughout a business’s lifetime. However, an entire strategic overhaul may be necessary if your branding is severely outdated and evokes unfavourable nostalgic feelings, or relies on associations that are no longer relevant to the industry.
A complete overhaul of your existing branding may be required if your business has undergone significant evolution. Brand personalities and elements are very often created at the inception of a business, but remain untouched for an extended period. If your business has grown substantially, diversified the products and services you offer, or simply now targets a different segment of the market, rebranding may be necessary to ensure your public image is reflective of the possibilities you offer.
Whether or not you’ve ever made a concerted effort to develop a brand personality, every single brand has a public perception. If you’ve never made an effort to develop a unique brand identity, then it’s highly likely that your business is simply viewed as a generic and uninteresting competitor within the market. If you’ve failed to explain what makes your business different and worth interacting with, rebranding is extremely important. Carving out a unique market positioning and an identity for customers to relate to will make sure your business has a meaningful and individual market perception for customers to consider.

What can you do to rebrand my business?
To transform your branding and set your business up for a more prosperous future, we may undertake several different rebranding strategies. Whether your business requires only a few of these steps or needs a comprehensive strategic overhaul, we’ll create a solution that meets your business’s needs. We may create a new logo and find a new color scheme, help you develop a new name, work to alter your market positioning, create a different tone of voice in your messaging or produce new advertising among a range of other initiatives.
When should I not opt for rebranding?
While rebranding can offer various benefits to a business, it should not be undertaken on a whim. If your business has recently encountered bad publicity, a rebranding effort may seem an appropriate step to take, but most consumers will identify the reason for your rebranding and may lose trust in your brand. Similarly, you should not undertake a rebranding effort if a successful competitor has undergone this process. Following your competitors is not always the best course of action, and instead, it may be appropriate to double down on your existing branding and prove why your business is a fantastic competitor in the marketplace.
Do you only undertake complete rebranding projects or can you optimise parts of my existing branding strategy?
At RGC, we recognise that no two businesses are the same and accordingly, every business requires a different approach to optimising its branding efforts. We know that a complete brand overhaul may take away from the valuable parts of your market perception, and that’s why we offer a customised rebranding service to each of the businesses we work with. Whether you require a complete rebranding effort or only require a new logo or adaption to your tone of voice, we’ll tailor a solution that meets your needs.
