Healthcare

New Zealand’s most awarded branding agency in the healthcare sector

We believe your brand is your greatest business asset.

Hello, we are Re:brand – an internationally award-winning brand agency who have been helping healthcare companies build brand value since 1999. We understanding the nuances of the industry; the complex Board structures, different patient referral pathways, patient care and treatment journeys.

The traditional approach to branding is no longer relevant. We use an evidence-led process that focuses on thorough research, strategic insights expressed through design to produce stunningly simple solutions to complex business problems.

We understand the problems you might be facing:

  1. Have your services/products expanded but your brand positioning & story hasn’t?
  2. Are you being left behind by your competitors?
  3. Are you looking old and dated?
  4. Are your customers confused about who you are and what you do?
  5. Are your staff confused about the business and brand? 
  6. Is your brand and name no longer relevant to your industry?
  7. Does the organisation lack alignment about how to move forward?

We have a proven methodology to help businesses identify and resolve all of these brand issues, and more!

Our proprietary process:

Brand is business process and we want to deliver an ROI.

We want to change the conversation. We’re sick of design agencies delivering a brand that is a logo and nice looking website. Where’s the business-wide value? We want businesses to understand the value that their brand has.  When done properly, as a business process, it helps align staff, give internal clarity that generates pride and consumers who understand what your brand does. And they love you for it. In return they spend their money with you and increase your business value. It’s win-win.
