But for financial and professional services firms, they can be especially challenging. The success of these brands lies heavily in the hands of (non-marketing) employees-client-facing teams who create and share many of the most influential documents with clients and prospects (e.g. pitchbooks, proposals etc.)  \nTherefore, in these sectors, the success of a rebrand is highly dependent on the internal adoption of the new brand; from ensuring teams can effectively communicate your mission and values, to helping them master new PowerPoint templates and assets. Making sure this happens consistently, across a complex, global landscape, is the ultimate test.  \nIn the last 10+ years, we’ve worked closely with many such firms to help them ensure the success of their rebrand, experiencing their challenges first-hand. We also went through our own rebrand in 2020-which we executed entirely in-house.  \nFor this eBook, we’ve collated all of this knowledge, as well as insights from some of our clients who have recently navigated their own rebranding projects: UniCredit, Mazars, Singer Capital Markets, Apax Partners, and Forensic Risk Alliance.  \nOf course, there is no one set way to do a rebrand; the process will inevitably be unique to each business.  \nContent  \n1: Defining your rebrand mission ~~ ~~  \n2: Conducting your brand audit ~~ ~~  \n3: Planning your rebrand ~~ ~~  \nDeveloping your communication strategy ~~  ~~Building your winning team ~~  ~~Getting organized ~~ ~~  \n4: Creating your new brand identity  \nDefining your vision, mission and brand values ~~  ~~Changing the name of your brand ~~  ~~Updating your core visual identity ~~  ~~Establishing your brand voice ~~  ~~Updating your marketing materials ~~ ~~  \n05  \n09  \n11  \n19  \n25  \n29  \n31  \n33  \n37  \n39  \n47  \n50  \n5: Rolling out your new brand ~~ ~~ 53  \nEnsuring internal adoption ~~ ~~ 54  \nPlanning your external launch ~~ ~~ 65  \n6: Measuring the success of ~~ ~~ 69  \nyour rebrand  \nAppendix ~~ ~~ 73  \nConclusion ~~ ~~ 75  \nThank you ~~ ~~ 75  \n\n| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n\nPart 1 Defining your rebrand mission  \n5  \nBefore you begin doing anything, you need to make sure you have a clear understanding of why you’re doing this rebrand, what you want to achieve and when you want to achieve it by. Along with your core team, consider the following carefully:  \nWhy are you rebranding?  \nMake sure your core team are sure about exactly why you’reinvesting in this project. It could be to modernize, to align with your new growth strategy, or as a result of a merger. There could be more than one reason but try to keep it simple to make sure you’re focused on one clear goal. Ensure the motive behind why you’re rebranding aligns with, and supports, your company’s broader strategic objectives and that you can communicate that simply and effectively.  \nExplaining clearly how the new brand will support the business’s wider goals, and setting clear objectives that demonstrate tangible benefits, will help you secure internal buy-in.  \nIt’s the key to taking the rebrand from a‘nice to have’ to a ‘must have’ project.  \n6  \n\n| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| How will you measure success?\u003Cbr>Decide what you want the impact of the rebrand to be – for example, it might be increased brand awareness in a specific region, or better brand consistency across multiple global offices.\u003Cbr>Outline realistic, measurable objectives.
