1. You don’t feel confident giving people your business cards

Yes! Do you go for business or even casual meetings and you’re not confident giving out your business card? This is a sign that you need to rebrand. What you simply need to do is reach out to a branding agency, they’d take it up from there.

2. People can’t differentiate you and your competitor

When people tend to mistake your brand with your competitor or vice versa, it’s time to rebrand. It is important for your audience to easily remember your brand, so if you use a generic or simple name, logo as your competitor, you might just be hurting yourself.

Remember that branding is all about competitive differentiation. Think about your unique selling point and push it out so you stand out from the competition.
