How do you know when it is time for a rebrand? Or maybe just a brand refresh? And what is the difference between the two? In this episode, I explore the nuances of rebranding versus refreshing a brand for businesses seeking to be different and stand out in today’s competitive landscape. As a brand strategist, I draw on my experiences to highlight the strategic depth required in rebranding, distinguishing it from initial branding efforts. I discuss the historical evolution of branding, using examples like Walmart, while sharing a recent case study that emphasizes the importance of aligning visual identity with a business's mission. Find out how you can evaluate your own brand to determine if a rebrand or refresh are what you need.

How can you provide your clients or customers with an exceptional customer experience? That would be through brand touchpoints! In this episode I share two very different experiences I had at two different places and how the branding in customer interactions experience makes all the difference. Branding extends beyond just a logo and shows up in every touchpoint of the customer journey. From marketing to post-purchase interactions. Businesses need to enhance their brand touchpoints to foster loyalty. This could be from overlooked areas such as invoices to follow-up communications. Ultimately, I encourage you to critically assess your own branding strategies and consider how to surprise and delight customers at every opportunity.

What does it actually mean to have a ‘quirky’ brand, and how does it work for some brands? That is what we are talking about today. This episode focuses on the letter Q in our branding series, exploring "quirky" as a powerful branding strategy. I argue that infusing your brand with a playful, unexpected essence can set you apart in a crowded market. Quirkiness goes beyond surface-level traits; it represents a brand's essence, tone, and connection to the audience, making brands more relatable. There is a striking balance between quirkiness and professionalism, and I want to stress the importance of authenticity in branding. Reflect on your brand's identity and emotional connections to develop a distinctive, impactful presence.
