When it comes to rebranding your food and beverage business, there are a lot of moving parts. You want to ensure that you don’t change your brand so much that it loses its appeal or alienates your current customers. Before you can begin to make the changes you need, it’s vital that you know what to look out for.
Here are four telltale signs that it’s time to rebrand your F&B business:
Your current brand isn’t getting the desired results
Competition has changed the landscape of the F&B industry and made it harder to stand out from the crowd. If the current perception of your brand doesn’t align with what you believe it should be—for example, if you’re known as a family-friendly establishment, but now want to be known as an edgy hangout spot for millennials, then you may consider it time for a rebrand.
You’ve lost touch with your customer base
If you don’t know who your customers are anymore, it’s time to figure it out. Look at your sales data and do some research on who buys what products from you most often. Then use this information as a starting point for creating more effective marketing campaigns and targeting those specific audiences.
People don’t remember your brand—or think it’s something else entirely
If customers have a hard time understanding what you do and offer, then it might be time for a change. A brand refresh could bring clarity to what your company does—and how you do it—so that customers can better understand why they should visit you. You want to differentiate yourself from competitors in a meaningful way that sets expectations for customers—and helps them understand what makes your brand different than others.
Outdated assets
If your website looks like something out of 2012 instead of 2022, then that’s not just an aesthetic problem—it’s an SEO problem too. Google wants sites that are modern and fast. You may want a fresh start for your brand so people will see how much things have changed since day one.
If you haven’t changed the menu in years, it may be time to give it a thought. Even if you’re only adding one new item and taking one off, that can make a big difference in the way people identify with your brand. If the menu changes aren’t drastic enough, consider changing the prices or adding special offers to keep things fresh.
To keep your business running smoothly and efficiently, it’s crucial that you keep an eye on how your brand is perceived by customers, competitors, and potential partners.
It’s not just about changing the logo and ensuring your marketing materials are up-to-date—it’s about changing the way you see yourself. It’s about taking a step back and looking at the big picture, and figuring out what’s working and what isn’t.
