There is always some risk involved as well, just ask GAP, so you have to be sure that this is the right step for your business at the moment. Since rebranding is part of a business’s life cycle, knowing when to take this step is essential. Deciding to rebrand your business or updating your logo should have some purpose behind it. Below are some examples of why businesses decide to update their brand or spruce up their visual identity.
Your Logo No Longer Reflects Your Brand
Your Products or Services Have Changed
You Don't Stand out Among the Competition
Your Brand Needs an Update
You Want to Shake off a Negative Image
You Need a More Cohesive Brand
Choosing Your Rebranding Strategy
Before starting to make any changes to your brand’s visual identity, you’ll have to first develop a strategy that will guide your rebranding efforts. Start by deciding if you want to change your identity completely or if you only want to make minor changes and upgrades to your logo.
Partial Rebranding
Partial rebranding is a great strategy for brand’s that have been in the business for years and are recognized for their positive qualities. Since you don’t want to lose these positive associations, minor changes to your business logo may be all that’s needed to update your image.
Complete Rebranding
Changing your company’s image completely is a large step that requires some serious planning. This goes beyond just updating your brand’s color palette or logo design and can include things like changing the company’s name and a complete overhaul of your social media pages and website.
Color increases brand recognition by up to 80%.
How to Create Your New Logo
Now that you’ve settled just how much of an update you’re after, it’s time to start planning what changes you’d like to make to your visual identity. It’s a good idea to start by reassessing your brand, establishing your brand’s values, updating your mission, etc. so that you’re sure your new logo design will reflect what you want it to.
