Every skincare founder we talk to has the same instinct once they’ve outgrown their current look. They open Instagram, save ten packaging designs they like, and start reaching out to agencies for a “rebrand.” What they’re actually asking for is a new coat of paint on a house whose rooms haven’t been laid out yet.…
“Our branding isn’t working” is one of the most common things skincare founders say to us, and it’s almost never specific enough to be useful. Branding isn’t one thing. It’s a strategic layer and a visual layer, and they fail differently, get diagnosed differently, and get fixed differently. Founders who can’t tell the difference end…
