RCS
Rebranding RCS Over the last year the RCS Group has been quietly redeveloping it’s brand strategy. Here, the main players involved, tell us why… The RCS Group has recently undergone a rebranding to invigorate the look and feel of the company, while at the same time remaining true to its core values. RCS is a lifestyle-driven, consumer finance provider that enables the ‘aspirational’ lifestyle of its customers. RCS believes the new brand represents all of this. Read on to find out how the new look of RCS came into being…
Regan Adams Chief Commercial Officer Why did you decide to rebrand RCS? RCS has been around since 1999. Since then our product offering has evolved. What has always remained constant, though, are our values and our commitment to improving our customers’ lifestyle by offering competitive consumer finance solutions. Our new brand celebrates the changes we have gone through which have brought us to this point and also signifies a renewed promise to our customers.

And the new pay-off line ‘Let’s make it possible’? A great brand is a promise 04

made and a promise delivered. The RCS business and brand makes it possible for customers to achieve their goals. Over the last 12 years we have made over 1 million dreams come true for customers through cards, loans and insurance products. The new pay-off line clearly expresses that goal, focus and commitment – and the passion with which RCS ‘makes it possible’.
Continued on page 6...
RCS The new brand is really exciting. How can I get involved? As you know, you, the customer, are at the heart of our business, and throughout the rebranding process we have devised ways of keeping you informed. Look out for our exciting new Facebook competition (www.facebook. com/RCSgroup), where you stand the chance of winning R1000 every day over a period of 25 days. We will also be running a fun radio competition on your favourite national radio stations, while also airing new television ads at the same time. In addition to all of this, we are sponsoring an exciting new Mark Burnett (producer of Survivor and creator of The Apprentice) adventure programme on SABC 3 from 14 November called Expedition Impossible which we are just thrilled about! How can I comment on the new brand and logo? We love hearing from our
customers! We especially love hearing about how we helped make it possible for you! Please ‘like’ our Facebook page or follow us on twitter (@RCSgroup) and share your experience and views with us. You can also write to the RCS Lifestyle magazine (RCS@tenfourmedia. co.za) and share your thoughts and opinions.
Riad Masoet Head of Product & Group Marketing Who is involved in the rebranding process? The branding process is more than just a logo change. It is a commitment to making our interactions with you, our customer, a pleasure. This means that everyone at RCS is involved in the new brand process, from the receptionist to the executives; we are all committed to making it possible for you. We remain the same RCS you have come to love and trust over the last 12 years. The new brand will symbolise our renewed commitment to keeping you informed,
Riad Masoet keeping our communication uncomplicated, being optimistic and living passionately. We invite you to join us on our journey to making things possible. Where can I expect to see the new logo? The enhanced logo will replace the old logo in your favourite stores. In addition, look out for our brand new TV, newspaper and magazine ads. We will also be revamping our website, RCS Lifestyle magazine and social Continued on page 8...

wanted to create a symbol that, over time, will be able to stand alone as the iconic look of what the RCS brand is about: relationships and transactions that empower.
Other than the logo change, what other changes to the brand can I expect? At RCS we endeavour to make things possible for you. With more and more South Africans trusting RCS to meet their credit and insurance needs, we have plans for enhancements to our current products. Look out for these in future communications.
Thebe Ikalafeng Founder and MD of Brand Leadership. How did the new RCS logo evolve? When we were asked to rebrand RCS we were excited to work with a brand that is committed to its customers and delivers on its promise. Financial services brands are supposed to be a catalyst for empowering customers, and no other brand has that focus such as RCS. Our initial engagement with the RCS team

Thebe Ikalafeng introduced us to a team that lives the brand focus. That was a very exciting prospect for us – to be able to deliver a brand that reflects the vision, the values and promise of the business to facilitate relationships that are mutually empowering. Thus we developed a look that elegantly symbolises mutual relationships and is derived from a typical transactional symbol. We

What do the RCS colours symbolise? RCS has very loyal base of customers of whom they are very proud. Because it’s not essentially a new company, we wanted to keep the orange as part of the RCS heritage, which their customers have come to know and recognise – but we wanted to evolve it to be more dynamic, vibrant, energetic and welcoming – much like the spirit and promise of RCS. Further, we introduced a more charcoal/deep silver secondary colour – usually associated with sophistication to give the RCS orange a solid accent and sophisticated base, but also acknowledge the aspirations of RCS customers.

Top Tablets
This decade is all about the tablet. We look at three you can’t live without in 2012.
1
Apple iPad 2 Earlier this year Apple unveiled the iPad 2. Here’s why you should ask Santa for one this Christmas. It’s faster: a new chip, called the A5, provides a dual core processor and up to nine-times faster graphics. The iPad 2 is 33 percent thinner (from 13.4mm to 8.8mm – thinner than the iPhone 4). It takes pictures and you can perform video chat with the two cameras on the device. Plus, it’s magnetic: the magnetic cover for the screen (besides protecting the screen) automatically cleans it too!
16
2
Samsung Galaxy Tablet The Samsung Galaxy Tablet is a great device that packs neat hardware and well-integrated software into an appealing bundle. The Galaxy isn’t better than the iPad. But it isn’t any worse either – just different. If you’re looking for a tablet to keep on your coffee table, and let you browse the Web on the sofa, the iPad is great. But, if you want something nimble but more featurepacked, the Galaxy is a good choice.

CREATIVE COLOUR If you’re struggling to redecorate, why not consider a creative burst of colour in your home.
1
Colours Dare to celebrate neon shades, using fluorescent green, yellow or pink, delivering new accented elements to your freshly decorated interior. Since these powerful colours tend to draw attention, combine them with neutral shades such as white and gray. This striking atmosphere will definitely be one of a kind.
24
2
Creativity When it comes to creativity, let your home speak for itself with daring colours, suggests www.adesignerspot.com. Use orange if you are slightly conservative, blue if you are a calm person, red if you are highly active, energetic and impulsive and pink if you are affectionate, playful and spontaneous. Whatever color you choose to apply, be sure it fully represents your personality, delivering the desired atmosphere.

2012 trends
MOTORING AHEAD We look at motoring trends for 2012 so that you can keep ahead of the game.
1
Colour conscious Unsurprisingly, colour features once more in the 2012 ‘trends department’. At the recent Frankfurt Motor Show white cars where the order of the day, so says motoring website rac.co.uk. White was particularly popular on ‘eco’ cars at the show, perhaps because of its clean and pure look: as these cars are growing in number, expect the return of white to continue too. If you’re looking to buy in 2012 white may be the colour to consider.
42
2
Tyre top up This isn’t so much a trend, but rather something you should consider making trendy in your everyday motoring life. Check your tyre pressure. It’s an important message that too many motorists ignore. Tyre maker Bridgestone South Africa has called on the motoring public to check their tyre pressures at least every two weeks. The plea comes in the wake of a tyre survey that showed nearly one in five tyres is dangerously overor under-inflated.

Interior decorating Looking to spruce up your car on the inside? RCS Lifestyle motoring contributor Hailey Philander suggests the following: “Get your auto trimmer of choice to refurbish your car interior’s leather, cloth or vinyl upholstery. They can even spruce up the door panels, guaranteeing that your car will feel as good as new.”
