Graphic designers, when someone asks for ‘just a quick logo’ for free.
Every designer has heard this at least once — and probably died a little inside.
Here’s the truth:
There’s no such thing as a “quick logo” when you care about quality.
Behind every logo is:
✔ Brand research
✔ Strategic thinking
✔ Sketches and concepts
✔ Typography, color theory, balance
✔ Revisions, refinements, and more
Design is a service, not a favor — and it deserves the same respect as any other professional skill.
Let’s normalize this: Good design isn’t free, and free design usually isn’t good.
What’s the wildest “quick favor” someone’s asked you for? 👇
