Logo Design Services

Our Montgomery Graphic Designers can:

  • Build a logo from scratch
  • Customize an existing, stock logo
  • Create an updated version of your existing logo

Whichever option you choose, we make your logo unique, stylish AND functional at a VERY reasonable price. Your Logo Design will also be adaptable and recognizable at any size and on any media.

There are several issues to consider when designing a logo, and they go way beyond aesthetics and branding.

In short, your logo must be adaptable and recognizable in every instance it is used, whether it be on the side of the Goodyear blimp, outdoor billboard, business card, or website favicon. (see example images below)

“A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Logo Design Services are included free of charge when you participate a monthly, flat-fee Marketing Plan offered by Bizeeo™.

We also provide free print Business Cards customized with your logo design.

So, do you know where YOUR logo is?

Bizeeo™ Logomark

@ 60×60 pixels

@ 120×120 pixels

@ 200×200 pixels

Shown above is the logomark for Bizeeo Marketing Agency, located in Montgomery, Alabama.

The file image format is “PNG” (Portable Network Graphics) and displayed above at three different dimensions.

The PNG file format is a type of Raster graphics file format.1

The PNG file format is ideal for logos, logomarks and favicons (look at the tab in your browser window).

PNG file formats:

  • Provide a transparency option enabling the overlay of your logo with backgrounds of varying colors and brightness
  • Are relatively small in “size” (by “size”, we mean “document size”, NOT “image dimensions”2)
  • Don’t degrade very much when re-sized, especially compared with other graphic file formats (the logo images shown above are actually one image scaled to three different dimensions.

Logo vs Logomark

Often, this is one of the most difficult concepts to explain to our customers.

Before the advent of the Internet, when all logo design was produced for print only, there weren’t nearly as many constraints and issues to consider when designing and choosing a logo.

The first step towards understanding Logo Design for the digital world is to know the difference between three key terms:

  1. Logo
  2. Logotype
  3. Logomark

Let’s take these in reverse order.

  • A Logomark is typically a graphic, or symbol. Our’s is the “bee” icon shown above.
  • The Logotype refers to text that accompanies your logomark.
  • Lastly, a Logo is simply any combination/arrangement of one or both of your Logomark and Logotype “components”.

Logotype Only

Now, let’s make things more confusing.

Some brands (companies) have a logo that consists of logotype (text only).

Example: Coca-Cola

Logomark Only

And then there are logos that consist of a logomark (symbol only).

Recognize any of these? Take a guess!

Answers, from left to right:

  • Nike
  • Mozilla
  • NBC
  • Apple
  • Volkswagen
  • Shell

Logo Design Best Practices

There are no hard and fast rules to Logo Design, but there are certainly best practices to be followed.

Here are just a few:

  • Design your logo so that it can be adapted to fit within different sized boundaries. This occurs frequently when an Online Business Listing or Social Media Network specifies the precise logo image dimensions (ex: “Profile Picture” for Facebook business pages should be 180px wide by 180px tall).3
  • Try not to use more than two colors. For print, multiple colors can mean much higher costs. Online, a logo that is too “busy” can compete for attention at the wrong time, and at very small sizes are usually indistinguishable.
  • Is your “brand” recognizable when you display only your logomark? (meaning you exclude the logotype)
  • Does your logo look good in black and white? Why does that matter? People will make copies of your paper invoices using black and white ink. The original document may have included your beautiful, detailed logo in the header. Once copied to black and white, it may look like a smudge.
  • Avoid gradients.
  • Avoid too much detail. A logo CANNOT tell the entire history of your brand / company.

How Much Does A Logo Cost?

We cannot take complete “creative” credit for our “Bizeeo” logo design.

We purchased a stock version of our logo for $29. That was a one-time, royalty-free expense. We then adapted the logo to accommodate our color scheme, font preference, aspect ratio and other considerations.

We have many variations of our logo / logomark (scroll down for examples) so that we can accommodate dark backgrounds, height and width constraints, and for use in print (business cards, letterheads, brochures) and marketing merchandise.

We make no apologies for avoiding “from scratch” Logo Design because it saves you money, development time and in most cases, is a complete waste of your marketing budget (we’re referring to instances where you pay hundreds of dollars for a logo design intended for a small, local business).

We are NOT saying that Logos and Branding are not important!

We’re simply advising you to keep this in perspective.

Black & White Logo

Your logo is going to end up in black and white somewhere, eventually.

And there’s nothing you can do about it.

Get over it.

But be sure you choose a design that properly represents your “brand” when it happens.
