About this service

Summary

Perfect for small business owners and start-ups who need as small a package as possible to get the seed planted. It’s important as a business to have a clear and appropriate logo to represent your company. If you just need a logo, here’s where to begin.

Process

Phase 1: Clarity
I like to begin each new branding project with a kick-off call to meet you, learn about your company, and hear first-hand what your vision is for your logo. Following our call, I will send you a brief questionnaire that asks more detailed questions about your strategy, target audience, mission and vision for the future of your brand.
Phase 2: Development
After receiving your questionnaire responses, I will then begin drafting concepts for your logo. The basics package includes up to 3 initial concepts.
Phase 3: Revisions
After I send you the first drafts, we will communicate what your favorite direction is, what needs improvement, and any other changes you would like to see. In the basics package, up to 2 revisions are included. Additional revisions will be charged at $65/hour.
Phase 4: Delivery
Once you are happy with your logo, I will build out the final files and style guide and send everything you need in a compressed folder.
