Branding Moment: Is It Time to Bring Your Brand Into the 21st Century?

In crafting a brand, we are adamant about creating a great impression to the right audience. A first impression is what captures someones attention when looking to buy or list in real estate or in any other profession.  Every so often (15-20) years, a brand may need to be refreshed.  

Sometimes, it is a change of fonts, a brightening of colors while maintaining the well known identity. UPS 2003 change gave it that 21st Century look. (We have included a link to their logo history and images).  

Although we think this brand clearly expresses their services, we think they could us a bit of a makeover.  This company is over 15 years old.  At the time those colors were the "in" colors, and we remember the process blue as the "it" color, as well as that "screaming mi mi green" for many new businesses.  We are not suggesting that they change colors, just tone it down, and make their service icons more legible and less artsy, and bring it into the 21st Century.
