5 Signs You Need an Update to Your Nameplate
Is it Time to Redesign Your Nameplate?
Are you considering a change in your product branding? Maybe you're not sure if this is the right time to make a change. Chances are if you are asking if it is time for a change that it is at least worth the effort to look at options and considerations.
Here are 5 bite-sized tips to help determine if now is the right time to update your nameplate or label.
- Your logo has changed. When your corporate logo has received a facelift it is important to carry that over onto your product branding for a clean transition.
- Your company has merged. In the same sense as a logo update, if your company has merged with another the new brand should be reflected across all product lines.
- Your competition has updated their product branding. Staying aware of how your product and brand compare to others in the market is a key part of any brand strategy. Look at how your message is delivered when standing next to your competition.
- Your product has matured. Consider a refresh to update or enhance your brand awareness in order to stay current. An updated look can elevate and re-energize your brand.
- Your product line has expanded. Carry the look of your product identification across multiple models for a unified brand awareness.
