Snapchat was in the news late last week as they rebranded their parent company to Snap.\u00a0 Understanding the fundamentals of rebranding is crucial to ensure success. If you rebrand incorrectly or for the wrong reasons, it could destroy your market momentum and business.<\/p>\n<p>Domains play an often overlooked however essential part to the rebranding process.<\/p>\n<p>Many critical factors lead up to the need to rebrand including changing market dynamics, new products, and differentiation from your competitors. As companies pivot and grow their product offering, initial branding may box in your business and message. For example, startups are encouraged to be laser focused on a target audience and product.<\/p>\n<p>The original branding may create barriers for new products. One of the main reasons for rebranding is if your brand name is restricting you from evolving and expanding the business. Ask yourself these questions to determine if your current brand is inhibiting growth.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Does your brand allow you to pivot and introduce new products?<\/li>\n<li>Does your business model make sense based on market dynamics?<\/li>\n<li>Does your company vision match your brand?<\/li>\n<li>Does your messaging fit your product offering?<\/li>\n<li>Are You Differentiated Enough from the Competition?<\/li>\n<li>Has the competitive landscape changed?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.adobe.com\/en\/topics\/cmo-by-adobe\">5 strategic considerations for a rebrand<\/a> from CMO.com<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Identify Your New Brand Promise<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Get Employees On Board<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Slapping A New Logo Onto Your Site Is Not A Rebrand<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>A Rebrand Is Not A Marketing Initiative<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Do Your Homework<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Here is a great quote from the CEO of Miller Ingenuity, Steve Blue:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cYou should only rebrand if you meet one of two conditions.\u00a0 If your brand promise does not serve you right anymore is the first. The second is you\u2019ve evolved, and you\u2019re not what you used to be.\u201d Branding and domain strategies are almost inseparable.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>These same rebranding principals also apply to your domain name decisions.\u00a0 Often the domain name a startup acquires is based on keeping the investment down which leads to adding more words such as LLC, group, associates, etc.\u00a0 Upgrading your domain to an exact match or shorter version of your brand can be the first step in a strategic pivot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snapchat rebrands to Snap<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last week <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/pro\/snapchat-unveils-smart-sunglasses-rebrands-as-snap-inc\/\">Snapchat rebranded to Snap<\/a> to encompass its efforts to pivot beyond the mobile app space.\u00a0 This is an excellent example of how shortening your brand and domain creates simplicity and power.<\/p>\n<p>Snap raised $1.8 billion in May and had plans to introduce a new product to increase engagement and revenue.\u00a0 They needed a structured platform to expand and not create confusion with their main product Snapchat. Moving to Snap.com is a brilliant branding move that provides an effortless interaction thru their brand. Although they are currently only using the domain Snap.com for their corporate communications, this gives them a parent platform to interact as they expand product offerings. Here are their three main sites:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Snap.com (corporate brand)<\/li>\n<li>SnapChat.com (original product)<\/li>\n<li>Spectacles.com (new product)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Acquiring the domain Snap.com was a must to this strategic rebrand.\u00a0 This is a great example of a well thought-out domain strategy and rebrand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gusto made a brilliant rebranding decision<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Back in 2015, ZenPayRoll had a strategic decision to make.\u00a0 They realized that their current brand and domain were limiting their ability to communicate new product offerings.<\/p>\n<p>They were also competition against a brand that sounded very similar and with ten times more\u00a0funding. Like a good startup, ZenPayRoll was laser focused on a single message and market when they started.<\/p>\n<p>They helped companies manage their payroll services.\u00a0 As they grew, they added workers compensation and health benefits. The new name allowed the company to expand beyond payroll processing services and is a reference to a feeling of enthusiasm. Rebranding to Gusto helped them <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2015\/09\/17\/zenpayroll-is-now-gusto-adds-benefits-to-take-on-zenefits\/\">clarify any potential confusion customers might have with their largest competitor<\/a> \u2013 Zenifits.com.<\/p>\n<p><strong>These three companies almost lost it all by rebranding.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Think strategically when you rebrand.\u00a0Is it communicating a change in the product offering or expansion? PR Daily has five great examples of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prdaily.com\/responses-needed-how-is-ai-changing-your-professional-life\/\">rebranding efforts that ended in disaster<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Overstock.com to O.co (2011)<\/li>\n<li>RadioShack to Shack.com (2009)<\/li>\n<li>Pizza Hut to The Hut (2009)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Don\u2019t mistake rebranding for marketing.\u00a0 Old Spice is a great example of using effective marketing versus changing your brand. Also, read this article by Hubspot on <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/marketing\/rebrand-successfully\">how not to kill your SEO during a rebranding process<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Domains are the foundation for a successful rebranding<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Domains are a foundational part of rebranding because they provide a path to interact with your brand.\u00a0 They are the gateway for your online presence. When domains are acquired strategically, they create an effortless way for the consumer to move thru the customer journey.\u00a0 Domains are exponentially powerful the closer they communicate your brand message What would you have said if Snap used the domain Snapco.com or Snapllc.com.\u00a0 Acquiring Snap.com was foundational to brand communication and reinforcing their marketing.\u00a0 Any other domain would have created complications because of the disconnect with their marketing.<\/p>\n<p>For example, we are Snap but go to SnapLLC.com for more information.\u00a0 The power of a domain is in how it synergizes with the marketing creating no extra effort for interaction. If you acquire a domain correctly, it goes unnoticed and allows your brand to shine.<\/p>\n<p>If domains are acquired incorrectly they create additional noise and barriers for your brand messaging. **Check out the Media Options C.O.N.V.E.R.T\u00a0\u00a0framework to help you evaluate your domain decision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rebranding is a powerful strategy that can boost media exposure, help launch a new product and pull a company together to overcome new market challenges.
