What if everything you think you know about rebranding is wrong?

In this no-nonsense episode, we tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in business: when to rebrand versus when to resist the urge. With a shocking 73% of rebranding initiatives failing to deliver measurable ROI within two years, we dive deep into why most founders get this decision spectacularly wrong. Discover the real reasons companies like Jaguar and Cracker Barrel alienated their loyal customers, when Toyota lost its way, and why startups should almost never touch their brand identity. We explore the critical difference between a brand refresh and a complete rebrand, reveal the hidden costs most founders never consider, and share the rare circumstances when a rebrand actually makes strategic sense. This episode will save you from one of the costliest mistakes in business.
