Your logo is the icon of your business that lets people know who you are. So why would you want to invest in logo redesign?<\/p>\n

Believe it or not, there are times when it makes sense to alter your logo, or even start from scratch. Even globally recognized brands update their logo occasionally.<\/p>\n

While logo redesign can be risky, it can also be rewarding when performed correctly.<\/p>\n

Take a look at seven key benefits that a new logo can bring your business.<\/p>\n

#1 \u2013 Logo Redesign Keeps Your Image Fresh and Modern<\/h2>\n

Logos tend to be based on current design trends. Shape, color, font, and other elements are usually dead giveaways as to when the logo was created.<\/p>\n

Updating your logo to reflect the current times can serve a few different benefits.<\/p>\n

For starters, it shows people you\u2019re not resting your laurels. Rather, you\u2019re actively engaged in what\u2019s happening around you.<\/p>\n

It also demonstrates your resiliency and flexibility. You\u2019re not resistant to change, but can keep up with changing markets, tastes, and consumer needs and preferences.<\/p>\n

Finally, a new logo can make your brand appear fresh and cutting-edge. What looked great twenty years ago won\u2019t usually have the same impact today. It\u2019s an easy, cost-efficient way to give your brand a boost.<\/p>\n

#2 \u2013 A New Design Can Attract Attention to Your Brand<\/h2>\n

When you introduce a new logo in your business, it\u2019s hard for others not to notice.<\/p>\n

The right logo will get people talking about your brand. It\u2019s also a great opportunity to build some PR and ignite conversations surrounding your redesign.<\/p>\n

Having people notice and comment on your new logo gives you countless brand impressions. Take this surge in publicity to help people learn more about your company and what the new design means for those you serve.<\/p>\n

#3 \u2013 You Can Use Your Logo to Raise Awareness<\/h2>\n

Lacoste once changed its iconic crocodile logo<\/a> in lieu of 10 different animals to raise awareness for endangered species. Each of the 10 animals were members of the endangered species list.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, each shirt adorned with one of these new animals was released in limited supply. The number for each was based on the number of how many of each animal remains in the wild.<\/p>\n

For example, there were only 157 Kakapo Parrots left, so Lacoste printed 157 shirts with the parrot logo.<\/p>\n

In total, there were only 1,775 shirts produced, an alarmingly low number for a group of 10 species.<\/p>\n

Many saw the move as risky and controversial, but it certainly attracted attention to the brand.<\/p>\n

You can use your own logo to raise awareness for a cause. For example, you can add a ribbon to raise cancer awareness. A subtle nuance won\u2019t alter the overall design, but it can add that little something extra so people will know there\u2019s something fueling the change.<\/p>\n

#4 \u2013 Change Your Logo for Rebranding Purposes<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re undergoing a rebranding strategy, a logo redesign makes perfect sense.<\/p>\n

Rebranding itself isn\u2019t a decision to take lightly. It\u2019s an opportunity to connect with new audiences, reshape your image, and highlight your company\u2019s new products and values.<\/p>\n

BP\u2019s iconic green and yellow logo saw a drastic redesign in 2003 when it switched from its badge-style logo to a beautiful Helios image<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Helios resembled a sunflower that sported traditional BP colors. The home run was the imagery linking it to cleaner, better energy and a focus on BP\u2019s environmental soundness.<\/p>\n

Logo design should be a part of any rebranding efforts. While you might not be changing your business name, you can alter your logo\u2019s color, font, and other stylings to reflect the new you.<\/p>\n

#5 \u2013 Tailor Your Logo to New Markets<\/h2>\n

A new logo can help you break into new markets by appealing to different audience segments.<\/p>\n

This one will take a little bit of research to find out what certain audience segments are most responsive to.<\/p>\n

Using your new logo to reflect your company\u2019s values and promote yourself correctly can spur new business growth.<\/p>\n

Consider using the psychology of color<\/a> and shape when tailoring your new logo. These elements can have a huge effect on the type of customer your logo will attract. It will also ensure your new design promotes the brand image you\u2019re expecting.<\/p>\n

#6 \u2013 Simplify Your Logo for Better Visibility<\/h2>\n

Some logos are complicated. Too much detail can get lost in translation, which makes them less effective.<\/p>\n

Complex logos aren\u2019t necessarily a bad thing. For example, Metro Goldwyn Mayer\u2019s classic logo<\/a> with the lion and elegant framework has remained unchanged for decades.<\/p>\n

But printing such a complex logo can prove difficult. You likely won\u2019t retain many of the fine details that make it so unique, which could prevent your logo from being as effective as you expect.<\/p>\n

Simplifying a detailed logo can make your message stand stronger. Your audience can immediately recognize what your logo is trying to say.<\/p>\n

Remember, it\u2019s not a gallery painting. People aren\u2019t going to stare at your logo for minutes at a time trying to figure it out (unless they\u2019re logo enthusiasts).<\/p>\n

#7 \u2013 A New Logo Can Boost Your Revenue<\/h2>\n

All of the above benefits of logo redesign can ultimately lead to an increase in profits.<\/p>\n

When people start talking about your new logo, your brand receives exposure. It gives people a chance to learn more about you, your products, your services, and your company values.<\/p>\n

By appealing to new audiences, you\u2019re able to share your brand and products with more people than you were before.<\/p>\n

Redesigning your logo can also help create top of mind awareness. It makes people think about your company and what you offer. As a result, you could experience an increase in sales, website traffic, social media engagement.<\/p>\n

Yes, your new logo can be that powerful.<\/p>\n
