STEPX® - Rebranding Design

Dual-Purpose Influencer-Entrepreneur Brand Realignment

My Contribution: Marketing Research, Brand Guideline, Graphic Design, Ad Testing

STEPX, formerly Peeta Fitness, was established by YouTuber Peeta to make fitness knowledge accessible to a wide audience. The recent rebranding effort focused on enhancing brand awareness while maintaining the loyalty of Peeta's original audience. I led the rebranding process through a three-phased approach: analyzing audience data via Google Analytics, conducting customer interviews, and expanding ad testing to refine our target personas.

Insights from this research enabled us to shift the brand’s emphasis from appearance to a more holistic view of wellness, better aligning with Peeta’s mission to promote sustainable health. Additionally, we eliminated gender stereotypes from the brand, crafting an inclusive identity that appeals to a broader, more diverse audience. The new brand identity not only expands its reach but also opens up new opportunities for partnerships and applications within the wellness industry.
