great product or service without a great logo is nothing.
What
is a logo design?
A logo design is a graphic representation of
your company's identity. It usually is composed of
a symbol, illustration, and / or typography
(sometimes called a "logotype").
A logo design should: |
|
1.
Attract attention,
and then leave an impression:
You want people to give your company logo design a double take. Subconsciously
etching the design or parts of it in their minds. This
is the first tiny step in creating that brand awareness.
2. Create a look that is unique
and distinguishable:
Look around you right now, you can find about 15 company
logos. What our logo designers do best is find a way to
make your logo stand out from the crowd. Sometimes it
is done using colors, or unique symbols, but sometimes
we take it a step further and step away from your industry
norm and create a whole set of tracks. Being different
gets you noticed right away, but its having a positive
impact on your target market that is the critical point.
Our logo designers work with you to make sure that this
happens for your company.
3. Reflect the overall "feel"
of the company it represents:
Every company has one are many owners, each person has
a character trait that can be seen in the company. Example
if one of the owners is a neat freak, then you will notice
that the office is always in order. Another partner can
be a very positive person, and again this positively can
be seen around the office and in project development.
Our job as logo designers is to harness these character
traits and display them to your target audience using
symbols and fonts. Over the years our designers and marketing
experts have mastered this technique of reading what a
company is all about, then our logo design project coordinator
speaks with you to again get a feel of you and your vision.
Next they study your competition, what are they doing,
what are their weak points and their strong points. Our
logo design team build on these weak and strong points
and develop logo design samples that reflect the overall
feel of your company.
Why
do you need a logo design?
Businesses eager to open often give little thought to
their identity. BIG MISTAKE
With so much to get done, designing an appropriate logo
hardly seems like a top priority. However, this oversight
can prove to be a costly error in the long run.
- A new business must compete with
established companies. A quality logo is one
of the easiest ways to gain credibility and professionalism
right from the start, when you need it most. Our
logo designers and marketing experts take the time to
do the appropriate research to ensure a solid logo design.
Our logo design team also contact you to discuss with
you any ideas you might have that are sometimes difficult
to express via e-mail. Good communication between you
and our design team is a must.
- A new business usually has to
attract customers away from competitors. A distinctive
logo stands out in peoples minds, and is much easier to
remember than a name alone. Our logo designers have been
creating unique symbols for every type of business from
every part of the world. Our understanding of colors,
shapes, fonts, and placement has made us one of the largest
logo design firms.
- When starting a new business, service division, or launching
a new product line a logo design is a must. We remember
one company that starting a new beer in Mexico. He came
to see us about 5 months after his beer launch. His main
problem there was nothing that distinguished him from
the rest. He spent thousands of dollars on ads but all
they had where a bunch of colors and the name of his beer
at the top, the next billboard ad was 2 colors but the
name of the beer was written in a different font. It looked
like it was a different company. WHAT A MESS!!!!!
He lost all the money he put into printing, packaging,
and advertisement.
