Rebranding & Repositioning Brands in 2013

PORT MELBOURNE, Australia - March 14, 2013 - PRLog -- Last night L21, Australia’s premier conference organisers for  management and executive level professionals, announced their 5th Annual conference:  Rebranding & Repositioning Brands in 2013.

Scheduled to open and chairperson day two of the conference, TANK Branding’s Managing Director, Neil Shewan will be presenting alongside the likes of fellow Managing Directors: Steve Lewis, Nokia ANZ; Helen Kellie, SBS; and Renae Smith, GE Capital - Retail Solutions.

Shewan will be presenting on the theme: Rebranding & Repositioning in the Current Environment - Economic, Social, Technological and Political Drivers.

Shewan said, “Rebranding and repositioning is designed to enhance engagement or reengagement with consumers and other stakeholders. This needs to be understood within a broader framework of the economic, social, technological and political drivers behind changes in customer behaviour, thinking and response.  

At TANK we are passionate about focusing on the ‘human’ realities and approaches to branding. I look forward to sharing our ideals, thoughts and knowledge with this year’s L21 attendees”.

According to The Economist, rebranding or repositioning brands remain the most risky of all marketing activity.  It is expensive, disruptive internally, time-consuming, and extremely bad for morale when companies fail.

Rebranding and repositioning brands is also the most  significant trigger for either dramatic Brand Equity increase or decline – much more so than anything else.
