REBRANDING
A brand must stay relevant, so timely updates are necessary in a dynamic market.
We'll analyze the current market situation and adjust the positioning and visual style so they better meet your goals and aspirations.
When do you need this? A new market situation has emerged (new players, social climate changes, etc.), which requires adaptation. Or you realize that your brand doesn't meet the target audience's needs or doesn't achieve its goals.
What do you get? An updated brand that meets your target audience's needs and current market conditions..
The processes of rebranding and creating a brand from scratch go through similar stages. However, in the case of rebranding, it takes time to determine a strategy immediately. Every project is unique, and its implementation, depending on the market situation and the brand's position, will require an individualized approach. Sometimes, it's enough to simply update the name and corporate identity, while other times, it's necessary to break everything down to the foundation.
