Objective
Refresh the MoneyMutual brand to help it reconnect with its audience after the departure of longtime spokesperson Montel Williams.
Challenge
The exit of Montel Williams left a significant gap in MoneyMutual’s brand identity, causing confusion and eroding trust among consumers. Revenue declined, and marketing was effectively put on pause.
Approach
I led a strategic brand refresh that began with a discovery phase, analyzing the trust signals Montel had provided. From this, I developed three new brand pillars: authority, trust, and compassion.
I then conducted a full audit of existing assets and created updated brand standards to preserve remaining brand equity. All marketing materials—web, TV, email, and digital—were rewritten and redesigned. I also introduced new channels and strategies, including:
 + A browser-push notification strategy to augment automation
 + A Google Business Profile presence to combat competitor keyword squatting
 + New TV spots to reestablish visibility and credibility
Outcome
Organic and direct traffic increased post-relaunch, and the browser-push channel became a reliable revenue driver.
