The top ten reasons for rebranding
1. Mergers, acquisitions and demergers
For the most part, changes of business ownership, such as mergers,
acquisitions and demergers, result in an immediate rebranding. The aim
here is not only to make the change visible, but also to comply with
legal requirements. In the case of demergers, the party that has split
off is obliged to develop its own brand.
2. Repositioning
If implemented properly, a change to the positioning and brand
promise of a company has major consequences for the organisation.
Everything is adapted in line with the organisation’s new strategy and
promise: its products or services, HR policy, customer contact,
corporate identity, etc.
3. Internationalisation
In some cases, rebranding is necessary so that a brand can also be
used internationally. This may be because the brand name is too specific
to a particular country (e.g.: NS Internationaal, which has become NS
Hispeed).
4. Changing markets
For some companies, changes in the market situation mean that their
very existence comes under threat. The digitisation of society in
particular is making it necessary for certain sectors to reinvent
themselves.
5. Bad reputation
If a brand has a bad reputation and this is having a serious impact
on its operating result, rebranding can ensure that negative
associations with the brand are ameliorated or dispelled
6. Conflict with stakeholders
Developing a brand may in itself also lead to a rebranding. This may
be because the new style is too similar to an existing brand, for
example.
7. New CEO
A new CEO often brings a new lease of life to an organisation. This
may result in (major) organisational changes that also influence the
course the company takes
8. Outdated image
One of the most common reasons for undertaking a corporate rebranding project is modernisation.
9. Changing brand portfolio
Over the years, an organisation has to deal with the development and acquisition of numerous new brands
10. Further development of corporate identity
A few years ago, for the majority of organisations a corporate
identity consisted of just a logo, a primary colour palette and
typography.
