Rebranding
This can be defined as "a process of giving a product or an organization a new image, in order to make it more attractive and successful" (Collins English Dictionary). This is done to increase consumer loyalty, improve member professionalism, enter a new market trend, create a stronger voice in the industry, increase share holder value or to reenergize a company Generally many companies consider rebranding as a 'Cosmetic Work out'.

Rebranding
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

There are many reasons to re-brand: To keep up with the times and keep pace with changing consumer needs (e.g. services, accessibility, convenience, choice, fashion, technology). Because a brand has become old-fashioned and is in danger of stagnation or is already in a state of erosion. (AB Bank) Due to fierce competition or a fast-changing environment (PEPSI to Pepsi to pepsi) As a result of globalization (e.g. Lever Brothers to Lever to Unilever). As a result of mergers and acquisitions (e.g. GLAXO to GLAXOWELCOME to gsk). To decrease business development and operational costs, or a way of countering declining profitability or consumer confidence. To signal a change in direction, focus, attitude or strategy. Where there are complex product portfolios, considerable advertising and branding clutter, media proliferation and subsequent audience fragmentation.
