Brand Refresh FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Brand Refresh, answered. We’re always happy to talk through anything else.

What is the difference between a brand refresh and a rebrand?

A brand refresh evolves an existing identity while keeping its recognition. A rebrand creates a new identity, often with a new name or positioning.

What is the difference between a brand refresh and a rebrand?

A brand refresh updates an existing identity while keeping its core recognition. A rebrand creates a new identity, often with new positioning or even a new name.

How do we know whether to refresh or rebrand?

If customers still recognize and value your brand but it looks dated, a refresh is usually enough. If the business has fundamentally changed, a full rebrand may be needed.

How can a brand change without losing loyal customers?

By keeping familiar elements, such as colors or a recognizable symbol, explaining the change clearly and rolling it out in a planned way.

What are signs a brand needs a refresh?

Common signs include a dated look, inconsistent materials, difficulty standing out, poor performance on digital channels, or a business that has outgrown its image.

What is brand equity in a refresh?

Brand equity is the recognition and goodwill a brand has built. A refresh identifies and keeps the elements that hold this value.

How should a brand refresh be rolled out?

A phased rollout prioritizes the most visible touchpoints, such as website, signage and social media, followed by other materials as they’re replaced.

Should customers be told about a brand refresh?

Yes. Explaining the change and what stays the same helps customers and staff understand and embrace the refreshed brand.

Can a refresh include new brand messaging?

Yes. Many refreshes update positioning, tagline and tone of voice alongside the visual identity to reflect where the business is going.
