Topstep Rebrand.
Project Stakeholder: Social Media Lead
Topstep evolved from two brands, TopstepTrader and TopstepFX. The two products had separate websites causing confusion among users and redundant work amongst the internal teams. There was a clear need for a unified brand under one name and website. To initiate this transformation, a branding agency was hired to conduct research and present innovative branding concepts, while the in-house team collaborated with the executive leadership to determine the direction of the comprehensive rebranding, strategically creating a roadmap for the seamless execution of this significant endeavor.
