You probably didn’t build your office space (unless you’re a contractor). Chances are you can’t write your articles of incorporation (unless you’re an attorney). And, if you’re like most people, you hire professionals to deliver your packages, build your computer systems, and so on. Why should your logo be any different?
Many bad logos happen because a business owner tries to do it on their own. They need something fast, so they create it themselves or ask a friend to do it. And while they plan on doing it the right way eventually, they seldom get the chance.
An unprofessional logo can destroy trust among potential customers and keep customers from buying your products. And it takes very deep pockets for a business to survive a lack of customers. Do yourself a favor and hire a professional designer who can make recommendations about typography, fonts, colors, iconography, and more. In a future post, I’ll discuss what you should look for when you hire a designer. For now, seriously consider hiring a professional.
