    Identity Fraud: Understanding When and Why Rebrands Fail

    In this episode of Brand Crimes and Other Offenses, Sasha Monique breaks down why so many rebrands fail — and why the problem is almost never the logo. If you’re a founder or business owner questioning a rebrand (or the urge to start one), this episode examines what’s really happening underneath the surface.

    Using real-world examples like Cracker Barrel, HBO Max, and Gap, Sasha explains how identity drift, emotional decision-making, and unclear strategy quietly erode brand trust. Visual updates may feel like progress, but without leadership clarity and aligned positioning, they often create more confusion than momentum.

    This episode is for founders who want their brand to hold authority, not just look different.

    Key Takeaways

    • Most rebrands are driven by emotion, not strategy
    • Visual refreshes rarely fix unclear positioning or leadership gaps
    • Changing aesthetics without clarity creates confusion and trust loss
    • Consistency and identity clarity matter more than novelty
    • Successful rebrands reflect real business and audience shifts
