BRAND REPOSITIONING

Your company has evolved. Your brand needs to tell that story

A well-executed rebranding starts with diagnosis: what to keep, what to change and why. From there, we review strategy, name, identity and communication, and plan the rollout so customers and staff understand the new chapter.

We renew brands that have grown, changed or fallen behind, without losing what the audience already values.

The service

What rebranding is and how BDDB.ag works

Rebranding is the strategic review of an existing brand: positioning, name, visual identity and communication are reassessed to reflect where the business stands today. BDDB.ag leads rebranding projects from diagnosis to launch, deciding with the client what changes and what should be preserved. It can be a relift (an update) or a brand-new brand.

When to rebrand

The most common signs we see in our projects:

  • The company has changed (grown, expanded its services, entered another market) and the brand fell behind.
  • The audience sees the brand as dated, small or generic compared to what the company delivers.
  • Mergers, acquisitions or new units created brands that don't speak to each other.
  • The name limits expansion or causes confusion with competitors.
  • Every piece of material looks different and the brand has lost consistency.

If you're still wondering whether it's worth it, first read Rebranding: what it is, how and when to do it and Brand repositioning: how to know the right time.

Relift, repositioning or a new brand?

Not every rebranding has to change everything. In a relift, the brand is modernized while keeping the elements the audience already recognizes. In a repositioning, the strategy changes: who the brand speaks to and what it promises. In some cases, the diagnosis shows that a new name and identity are needed. The decision comes from research, not personal taste.

What we deliver

  • Audit of the current brand: applications, audience perception and competition.
  • Interviews with leadership, staff and customers.
  • New brand platform and positioning.
  • Naming, when needed.
  • Relift or new visual and verbal identity.
  • Updated brandbook.
  • Transition plan: what to change first and how to communicate the change to staff, customers and suppliers.
  • Launch campaign and event, internal and external.

How it works

  1. 01Diagnosis

    We map everything the brand has already built. At Atacado Games, in Paraguay, the qualitative and quantitative research and the interviews with leadership showed that a name change was necessary for the new positioning.

  2. 02Strategy

    We define the new positioning and the degree of change: relift, repositioning or a new brand.

  3. 03Creation

    We develop the brand's new expression and test it on the most visible applications.

  4. 04Launch and transition

    We plan the switch so the market isn't confused. At IGR Grasel Advogados, the new positioning was presented to the team at an immersion event before reaching the external audience.

BRAND RELIFT · MOVMIX RENTAL

Ten years later, the brand needed to evolve without losing who it is

MOVMIX, a machinery and aerial work platform rental company, had a brand created about ten years earlier and already recognized on job sites, machines and among clients. Replacing everything would mean throwing that equity away.

That's why the work was a relift: we redrew the brand on a grid, corrected the optical imperfections, standardized the symbol, swapped yellow for orange, lightened the RENTAL tagline and created a pattern, the phrase "Qualidade em movimento" (quality in motion) and the Car and Audio verticals. The visual essence stayed. What changed was the precision.

Diagnosis of the old MOVMIX brand

01Before

The diagnosis of the old brand

The logo relied on optical adjustment without a grid, the typography did not follow a proportion, the "X" had small alignment flaws and the RENTAL band competed with the name. Small deviations that, added together, made the identity less cohesive.

MOVMIX brand after the relift

02After

The same brand, now built with a ruler

A proportional, standardized logo, typography with a single set of dimensions, aligned "X" strokes and the tagline in the background. Clients recognize the MOVMIX they have always known, only firmer and more legible.

03Symbol

The symbol, refined down to the detail

Corners, angles and stroke weights redrawn on a grid, and the central square changed from yellow to the brand's orange. This is the symbol that became the pattern and the signature on the machines.

REBRANDING · MAGAZORD

From MAGAZORD to Magazord: the MegaZord that brings every solution together

Magazord started as an e-commerce platform and grew into an ecosystem: platform, marketplace hub, integrator, payment gateway, shipping gateway and corporate solutions. The old brand, red and in all caps, spoke for a single product.

The concept came from the name itself: the colors of the Power Rangers who join together to form the MegaZord. Each color became a solution line, and the new isotype combines the letter M, the letter Z, the check mark, the heart, the up arrow and the mouse cursor in a single symbol.

BRAND REDESIGN · TAF

The founder's symbol stays. The brand's voice changes

TAF, a manufacturer of polymer enclosures and electrical supplies from Santa Catarina, had first-class products and factories, but its communication did not match that scale. Competing with global brands, it needed to look as strong as what it delivers.

The symbol was born from a drawing by the founder and carries decades of recognition. That's why BDDB.ag kept the symbol and changed only the typography, which became more modern, geometric and legible, and created the signature Siga esta energia (follow this energy). From there, the new brand went onto packaging, catalogs, fleet, factories, a 25th anniversary seal and even a mascot.

REBRANDING · ATACADO GAMES → ATACADO CONNECT

When the name becomes too small for the company, it's time to reposition

Atacado Games started as a 2 m² video game store and became one of the largest technology companies in Paraguay. The research led by BDDB.ag showed that the name no longer represented the business. The result was a complete rebranding: new name, brand platform, identity, stores and e-commerce.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about rebranding

What is rebranding?

It is the process of reviewing an existing brand, which may involve positioning, name, visual identity and communication, to align it with where the company stands today.

When should a company rebrand?

When the brand no longer represents the business: after growth, a change in audience, a merger, entry into new markets, or when the audience's perception falls short of the company's real quality.

Is rebranding just changing the logo?

No. Changing the logo without reviewing the strategy usually produces only an aesthetic change. Rebranding starts with positioning and then reaches the visual identity.

Will I lose customers by changing the brand?

The risk drops with a diagnosis and a transition plan. We keep the elements the audience recognizes when it makes sense, and we communicate the change in advance to staff and customers.

What is the difference between rebranding and brand repositioning?

Repositioning changes the strategy, that is, how the brand wants to be perceived and by whom. Rebranding is the broader term and can include repositioning as well as a change of name and identity.
