Time to rebrand: What is rebranding and why is it needed in some places? Rebranding strategies: Who are the “rebranding players” and what strategies exist for places to improve themselves? Managing urban rebranding: how successful have urban areas been in rebranding themselves? Managing rural rebranding: How successful has rebranding been in the countryside?

18 What is rebranding? Rebranding is the way or ways in which a place is re-developed and marketed so that it gains a new identity to attract work, investment, residents and visitors. It may involve both re-imaging and regeneration. Re-imaging is the remodelling of areas to counter negative perceptions and provide “post-industrial” functions e.g. retailing, leisure and tourism. Regeneration is a long term process involving social, economic and physical action to reverse decline and create sustainable communities.

19 Rebranding Aims to Improve a Place and its Image
Rebranding is aimed at internal users (e.g. residents and employees) and external users (e.g. tourists and potential investors). It occurs at all scales from rebranding individual villages to changing the image of entire countries like China Its aims can include improving the quality of life and attracting new residents, tourists and businesses. Ideally a “virtuous cycle” is created (Cumulative Causation Model). More Regeneration – new houses, shops etc. More tourists, residents and investors. Residents have more hope and higher self esteem. Virtuous Cycle Better image 19
