Got a Business Idea? Here's Why You Need a Company Logo.
If you have just started a business or have an idea for a business, you're next step is to commission a custom logo design. A company logo works on a number of levels. It's a visual representative for your company. A visual identity that is short-hand for all the moving parts (people, product etc) that makes up your business.
Your company logo also gives your business personality and should align to your target audience/s and partner/s. Recently we blogged logo development tips and this post contains 4 key logo strategy tips to help you bid for logo design.
If you have set your mind to getting a new logo, then what are your options? You don't have to spend all your precious time researching designers, negotiating a fee and then hiring designers to end up with a dud design, when you should be growing your business! If you want diversity of logo ideas, lots of choice and you don't have a big brand budget, design crowdsourcing can help you get a high quality logo design without spending your runway before you've launched your business!
