Does your brand need a brand-new avatar?

Gandhi once said, be the change you want to see. If you are thinking that you might need a rebrand, there is a very low chance that you don’t. Here's the skinny: Do you think when you talk to your clients about your brand, it feels as if, 'Ah, once upon a time…?' Do you think that you haven't quite given your logo a second thought since ages or haven't changed your company's marketing message since the time you launched it?

As a branding studio, we come across many such people who don’t know better. We, at Slangbusters, have taken it as our responsibility to deal with such confusion and bust it so that people can be a part of their own  branding process . The most common misconception that plagues the industry is that the logo is the brand. This could be the seed of why graphic designing and  branding services  are confused with each other, or worse, deemed identical. Another reason for this miscalculation could be the fact that people are visual creatures. We remember images better than words. Befo...
