What happens when a brand isn't an accurate portrayal of the organization? What happens when a brand isn't connecting to its consumers’ sense of style? What happens when an organization outgrows its brand image? What happens when brand assets have no continuity and become an unmanageable disaster? Well, it might be time to rebrand the company's identity.  It's seldom the case that a company is branded accurately from inception, as businesses evolve and some things are out of your control—such as when technology, downturns, or upswings cause shifts in the market.  To create a brand impression that resonates with consumers, it's critical for company leadership to develop a brand that aligns with the company and its target audiences (both intrinsically and extrinsically). The brand identity should revolve around the organization's differentiation and the value it holds in the market. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐍𝐎 𝐑𝐎𝐈 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

Unlocking the Power of Rebranding: Overcoming Challenges & Embracing Change As a brand manager, I understand the hesitations many brands face when considering a rebrand. Let's address the major reasons and problems that often deter companies from taking this transformative step: 1. Fear of Losing Brand Equity: Established brands often worry about losing the equity they've built over time if they change their identity. 2. Financial Investment : Rebranding can be seen as a costly endeavor, both in terms of time and resources. 3. Internal Resistance : Resistance from internal stakeholders who are attached to the current brand identity can hinder the rebranding process. Here's the solution to these challenges: 1. Strategic Approach : A well-planned rebranding strategy can help preserve and even enhance brand equity by aligning the brand with evolving market trends and consumer preferences. 2.

A refreshed brand can attract new customers, increase brand loyalty, and ultimately drive revenue growth. 3. Internal Alignment & Communication : Engage and involve internal stakeholders from the outset to gain their buy-in and address concerns.

The myth of media spend is that it guarantees a successful brand. But the truth? If your brand’s success is solely contingent on how much you spend on media… you don’t have a brand. I once watched a consulting firm tell a brand I worked for to pump the majority of their dollars into media buys. Because, of course, that’s where the immediate (read: attributable) growth showed up in the data. At the same time we were trying to launch several new product lines under a major rebrand. Needless to say, the rebrand struggled because we simply didn’t have the dollars and resources to invest in creating and growing a sustainable brand strategy. Because if you’re in a situation where your brand would fold if you were to stop your media spend… You don’t have a brand. You have a hand-crank generator that you can never stop turning. ____ Follow Joey Gigante for insights on creating authentic, sustainable brand growth.

In today's swiftly changing business landscape, it’s never been more critical to build a brand that can stand the test of time. The question, How can we create a brand that lasts? is something we should not only ask ourselves as leaders but also infuse into the fiber of our teams and operations. Building a brand with longevity requires both an inward and outward focus: -Inwardly, we should shape a brand that aligns with our company's mission, values, and unique selling proposition. It should inspire not just our customers but our employees too. Because after all, the essence of a brand is far more than just a logo or tagline. It encapsulates what we stand for and why we matter. -Outwardly, we need a brand that resonates deeply with our target audiences. A brand they believe in, trust, and can connect with. That connection comes down to clarity: being clear about who we are, what we offer, and what makes us different. Building a durable brand isn't a one-and-done exercise; it's a continuous journey. It requires: 1. Consistency: Deliver on your brand promise every single time. It's one of the major keys to fostering trust. 2. Evolution: Adapting as per market trends and customer expectations is crucial, but without losing the core essence of your brand. 3. Engagement: Cultivating meaningful relationships with your audience is key, be it through social media, customer service or experiences. Building a brand that lasts goes beyond sales, beyond marketing, and certainly beyond the short-term. It's a strategic endeavor involving every aspect of the organization. The resulting brand, rooted in authenticity and delivered consistently, stands the test of time. So, let's roll up our sleeves and work on building brands to last, brands that leave a mark. Because at the end of the day, it's not just about being in the business, it's about being in the memories, the hearts, and the minds of our people and our customers. That's a brand built to last. #branding #businessstrategy #leadership #brandbuilding
