Effective ways to give your brand a refresh

Does your brand need an update? Do you want to bring in more clients? If these are the questions you are asking, you should try to give your brand an update, aka a refresh. In this blog post, we will look at some of the ways you can give your brand a refresh.

What is a brand refresh, you may ask? A brand refresh involves tweaking crucial parts of your brand, such as visuals, colors, fonts, and your logo, to match how you’d like to be perceived by ideal clients. A refresh can boost your brand’s reputation and reinforce your client that you can still solve their problem.

When should you do a brand refresh?

In most cases, a refresh may be due if;

  •  your brand has experienced growth and added new products or services.
  • you want to modernize your brand to suit current market needs.

How to refresh your brand.

A spot-on copy is essential as this is the first thing your site visitors see. It should grab their attention and show them that you can meet a need they have. If you’re unsure where to start making your site catch your visitors’ attention and keep them reading, here are tips to start you off.

  • Home page

    Use your home to communicate to your ideal client who you are, what you do, and who you help. The other thing you need to add here is a link to your services page so they can go ahead and see a detailed list of your services and prices.

    Here, add a smiling photo of yourself with a transparent background and tell the reader about yourself. It’s also a great time to let your potential clients know you understand what they are going through, then invite them to look at your services page.

If named correctly, search engines can understand what an image is about. Naming your pictures can also help visually impaired users who use particular browsers to read photos to them know what it is.
