Our team helps you plan, analyze, strategize, and execute with precision and confidence. We bring options to the table that provide you with the information you need to make the best choices available to meet your rebranding objectives while remaining within your fiscal constraints and commercial realities. This allows you to achieve more, spend less, and build a better brand.

Our proven methodologies and industry-specific databases, together with our data-gathering technology, Survey Manager ExpressTM (SME), enables scalable, expedient, accurate and thorough data collection. The information captured is compared to benchmarking data in our REBRAND ANALYTICS ENGINETM (RAE) in order to validate costs. Our team uses this data to run and quantify multiple implementation scenarios and thoroughly evaluate the full range of transition scenarios that best drive the achievement of your business objectives.

It is our data-driven approach that facilitates smarter and more effective decision-making and sets the stage for substantial cost savings.

In addition, we develop the tools and reports that streamline your implementation and provide status summaries at a glance. Customized dashboards organize relevant information into clear and concise updates and progress reports, reflecting priorities and providing just-in-time information when and how you need it. This systemized and structured data enables you to remain in control of costs and timing and provides the key information you need to report to senior stakeholders with confidence.

The team at BrandActive was instrumental in our quest to rebrand our entire organization from top to bottom. While our engagement began well over a year before we assumed a new brand name, the activation period fell upon the most challenging time in the past 100+ years – the COVID-19 pandemic. From up-front planning and strategy, to execution and follow through, BrandActive was thorough, accurate and forward-thinking which helped us successfully rebrand ourselves and continue to serve our community in their time of need. We couldn’t have done it without them.
