Why You Need a Professional Logo Designer:
Consider the following scenario: You are a plumber. You give your business card to someone at a party. A year later they need a plumber but they can’t find your card, so they start looking through the yellow pages. But because they don’t remember your name, and your logo looked like that of every other plumber, they never find you again. You didn’t stand out. Good logos are designed by professionals, not your neighbor.
Your logo is your visual ambassador to the world. It must be memorable and unique. Logos exist because we remember faces and landmarks. Your logo is the unique face of your business – your interesting landmark – so people can find you again in the crowd.
It must be reproducible in a variety of sizes. You might choose to use it on a pencil, a key fob, a business card, a billboard, a menu, a mailing label, a website, a television advertisement, a product package, or an invoice. Think of all the packaging and promotional material businesses generate with their logo on it. With so much riding on a logo, it’s a wonder how often it gets overlooked.
Your logo design should be timeless. It will be with you as long as your business exists. Changing it for a completely different one later is not generally an option – at best, they’re updated. We don’t get married thinking we can trade later on. You’re going to invest years of hard work in developing a positive public image. Your logo will be the face of that image. You owe it to yourself to begin with a logo design worth investing in.
The process can take a few days, or a few weeks. The journey from desire to creation requires research, reflection, inspiration, sketching, analysis, and testing before final deployment. A professional, formally educated designer draws on the lessons of art history, heraldry, architecture, marketing, color theory, culture and psychology.
Don't ignore the typeface (font). Typeface itself sends a subtle message to the viewer. You don’t want to send one message with your logo and another with the typeface. Logos that are entirely text, such as Disney, are called type logos. Businesses that choose a type logo should have an original typeface designed especially for their needs, as opposed to using a typeface that already exists. The necessity of originality demands it. If you choose a typeface that anyone can purchase, you run the risk of undermining the unique character of your logo. Many logos are symbols combined with text. Combining a symbol with text allows you to take advantage of the many different type faces currently available yet still have a unique, recognizable symbol to present to the public. Target Stores is a good example.
A logo should look as good in black on white as it does in color. Experienced designers do their initial mockups in black-on-white and save color choices for later. This ensures that when copies of documents are made, the design translates.
A photograph is not a logo. Detailed and/or colorful images are often used in product packaging and signage, but they don't make good logos. Logos should be simple, clear, direct, easy to recognize and most importantly, easy to remember.
