12. Expert Corner: Marc Cloosterman - Approaching A Rebrand, Brand Equity & Quantifying Company Value Moving Beyond Your Tribe

    • Business

How does a rebrand define your company? How do you quantify a brand’s value? When do you know a rebrand is the right decision for your business? Joining me on the podcast today to unpack this topic is the CEO and Founder of ‘VIM Group’ and expert Brand Specialist, Marc Cloosterman! 
Marc shares his insights on what business leaders should take into account when undergoing a rebrand, how the current pandemic is impacting his approach to brand implementation, and why brand identity has become more of a factor in modern-day marketing. We discuss the financial considerations that go into restructuring a brand and how a company’s value is quantified in a profitable sense.   
It’s a fascinating topic to dive into and there is so much more to brand implementation that meets the eye. There are a number of elements that play into a successful rebrand, as well as individual company culture that also needs to be thought of during the process.  
To learn more about this and gain some valuable lessons from a true professional in the field, tune in to Episode 12 of Moving Beyond Acronyms!
