A full rebrand — new identity, updated collateral, signage, website, and livery — can run well into five figures before you see a penny of the commercial uplift it is meant to generate. Short-term business finance lets you execute the rebrand at the right pace rather than spreading it thinly over months of internal cash flow.
Typical rebrand costs that benefit from financing
- Brand strategy consultancy and creative agency fees
- Logo, typography, and brand guidelines development
- Website redesign and rebuild
- Printed collateral: stationery, brochures, packaging
- Signage, vehicle livery, and premises fit-out updates
- Advertising and launch campaign spend
Why borrow rather than self-fund in instalments?
A piecemeal rebrand often looks piecemeal. Customers notice when new branding appears on your website months before your vehicles or your invoices catch up. Borrowing to fund the whole project at once means a coordinated launch — which is precisely the point of a rebrand. A Credicorp Business Loan covers the fixed total cost with a clear repayment term aligned to the business growth you expect the new brand to support.
Keeping repayment realistic
Rebrands rarely produce overnight revenue jumps. Build your repayment timeline around conservative projections — existing revenue plus a modest uplift — rather than the best-case scenario from your brand agency's pitch deck. A short-to-medium fixed term keeps the commitment manageable while the new identity beds in.
