This year we've done brand identities for companies in AI, pet health and car rental.
Before you ask a studio for a rebrand, write down the actual mismatch. Something like “enterprise buyers read us as a side project”. Then note where you've seen it, like lost deals or sales feedback.
A named mismatch is something a designer can scope.

That's so true! I always end up asking the rebrand clients what's the reason behind the rebrand or what issues are they having, because the approach can be sooo different!

Great advice, Daniel. A line like enterprise buyers reading you as a side project gives a designer a real problem to solve, while asking for a fresh look usually leads to endless rounds.
