But how do you keep it fresh and contemporary without having to change everything or start from scratch?
Luckily, there are several simple ways that you can modernise your brand without having to put excessive effort in.
To give your company complete brand cohesion, make sure that all your touchpoints are all up to date – whether that be customer-facing assets like vehicles and signage, or internal assets like your workplace.
Upgrading and maintaining your fleet is a great example of what you should be doing to sustain your branding’s fresh and modern look. Not keeping it up to date can give the false impression that your branding is not your top priority.
Stay ahead of the curve by monitoring branding trends and adapting that to your own business
This is your mobile brand ambassador of sorts, so it is imperative that it’s kept in pristine condition at all times. It is essentially a moving billboard of advertisement for what customers come to expect of you, thus exemplifying brand integrity.
There is a misconception that businesses only have to rebrand once, if at all. But in reality, in order to keep up with changing demands of the industry and competition, you should typically be rebranding every 7-10 years.
Innovation is powerful when it comes to a rebrand, as it’s what sets you apart from your competitors, and gives you a forward-thinking edge.
Stay ahead of the curve by monitoring branding trends and adapting that to your own business. Notice what’s ‘in’ right now, and use that to tailor your communications to customers. Once you become comfortable with spotting what the next big, innovative product or service is, it soon becomes easier to harness this trend and adjust accordingly.
Smooth internal communications act as a blueprint for achieving wider company goals, and helps you map out what the future of the business looks like to you.
This strategic approach helps to boost productivity, distribute workload effectively, enhance collaboration between departments, and keeps staff on top of deadlines. When everyone is clear on what is expected of them, and they’re encouraged to engage with company initiatives, they’re more likely to be positive brand guardians.
Setting specific actions and promoting internal workplace development also helps you interact more efficiently with customers, thereby filtering into your external communications and solidifying a tone of voice for the business.
Having a workplace with a unified image helps to amplify productivity and keep your company ethos concise. Not only does it boost morale, but it also gives any visiting customers a shining example of what you do best and who you are as a company.
This makes your work branding the perfect opportunity to reflect the core messaging of your business.
Eye-catching colour schemes, visual centrepieces, and interactive digital screens all help to turn the workplace from drab and monotonous into a space that people are happy to come to every day. Installing features, such as wall graphics and dynamic seating, adds a flair to your environment and establishes your credibility as a contemporary business.
It’s safe to say we are living in a digital age, so you need to make sure your signage doesn’t get you left behind. Digital signage is the perfect way to entertain, inform, educate, and engage, by effectively communicating with your customers and increasing your company’s visibility.
...the perfect opportunity to reflect the core messaging of your business image
As our brains are programmed to detect motion, we are instinctively drawn to moving objects, which means that we are automatically more captivated by the kinetic instead of the static.
This makes digital signage ideal for holding the attention of your audience, while giving them an easily digestible format in which to receive the message or information you’re trying to deliver.
