When you are building a business from the ground up, there is a lot to take into consideration. It’s easy enough to focus on how your company is going to turn a profit, but there’s one thing that shouldn’t be allowed to slip through the cracks: the creation of your logo. Your logo will do many things for your business by giving your audience something to recognise and setting up a visual identity. Below, we have some essential considerations for your logo creation process.

I have a personal fascination with colour: the history behind it, the emotions it evokes and the simple beauty of it.

Since entering the marketing industry, I now have an appreciation of how colour influences brand identity.

Design is one of the most important facets of any marketing campaign. Although it isn’t something we think about too much when we are looking at an ad, logo or a brochure, the fact is if the design isn’t attractive we just won’t read what is on offer.

Earlier this year Business Insider ran a piece on The 15 Worst Corporate Logo Fails. Topping the list was the London 2012 logo, which some mistook for a Nazi logo and others for Lisa Simpson being a very naughty girl. 

When Michael Reed first came to me with his idea, it was before its time. He enthusiastically shared his desire to build an online platform where consumers and businesses can get all of their logistics needs at a click of the button, and for the most competitive price.

Not too indifferent to when Expedia launched onto the marketplace, Michael wanted a transparent platform - where people could move everything from their dog, through to their house, a container of furniture, through to bulk handling products. A place where it all can be done, with full visibility of the competitive landscape.

As a marketer with 20 years experience, I am always trying to figure out the psychology behind why a client picks one logo over another, or one way of doing things over another.

Sometimes, they have insight that perhaps marketers do not. Mostly, they just like a particular colour, font style, identity mark or a way of doing things that may not quite be up with the times.

About 4 years ago, Marketing Eye was engaged by Gold Coast Accounting firm Saber Accountants, to develop a new logo identity and branding as well as marketing material and a website.
