Feeling stuck in a creative rut? It happens to the best of us. When those “aha” moments seem few and far between, it might be time to breathe new life into your brand and shake things up.
The good news? Bringing fresh, noteworthy content to the table is easier than it seems—the real challenge is sparking that initial idea. To help reignite your creativity and take your brand’s direction to the next level, here are Flaunter’s top three tips for refreshing your approach.
Get inspired (the not-so-sneaky way)
Sometimes the best creative prompts are hiding in plain sight. Think of your creative strategy as a dynamic Pinterest board, always evolving. Whether you’re scrolling through your feed, browsing your favorite brands, or walking down the street, keep an eye out for ideas that resonate with your brand’s personality. These small moments of inspiration can be gold when injected into your content, giving your brand a fresh new perspective.
Social media is a great place to start. Dive deeper into your audience across various platforms to learn more about what resonates with them. Chances are, those who are already following you share common ground, which can offer valuable insights into the types of content they’re drawn to. Freshening up your feed—whether by tweaking your layout, experimenting with a new color scheme, or finding creative ways to tell your brand story visually—can increase engagement and make your feed stand out in an increasingly competitive space.
While you’re out there gathering inspiration, remember: it’s fine to be inspired, but don’t fall into the trap of imitation. Be sure to give credit where it’s due and always add your own unique twist. Who knows? There are so many creatives out there doing innovative things—one little spark from someone else’s work might just ignite your next big idea.
2. Revamp your feed
Has your content started feeling stale? If you’ve posted that same pair of loafers for the fourth time and can’t bear the thought of another repeat, it’s time for a refresh. Start by taking a step back and reassessing your content plan. Staying on-brand is key, so make sure that everything you post is aligned with your brand image and voice. Whether it’s a new blog post or an Instagram story, keep your audience in mind and focus on what will genuinely interest them—not just what you think will sell.
Still stuck? Look to your followers for help! Crowdsourcing content is an excellent way to generate fresh ideas without a hefty price tag. Consider running a creative photo competition on Instagram or asking your audience to share their own content featuring your products. Not only does this encourage engagement, but it also provides you with beautiful, user-generated content that’s perfectly tailored to your brand.
The best part? Your followers will love seeing their work featured, creating a sense of community and connection around your brand. Plus, it takes some of the content creation pressure off you!
3. Collaborate to innovate
When it comes to reigniting creativity, sometimes it pays to look outside your own bubble. Gone are the days of brands competing in isolation. Today, many businesses are finding new levels of success through collaborations with other brands, artists, or even retailers.
These partnerships can bring a fresh perspective, combining two distinct philosophies and opening up opportunities for cross-promotion and access to new audiences. Collaborations are a powerful way to create buzz, showcase new products, and breathe new life into your brand—without having to go it alone. Think about it: some of the most iconic products in fashion and lifestyle have been the result of unexpected collaborations between two seemingly unrelated brands.
Fashion and interiors brands, in particular, can benefit from these types of cross-industry partnerships, blending aesthetics and ideas from both worlds. A creative collaboration could be just what you need to excite your audience and bring in a fresh influx of attention when they least expect it. Plus, collaborations are a great way to generate buzz-worthy content that can set your brand apart in a saturated market.
