Logo design... - Tile Advice

[merlecollins]

Has anyone ever employed the services of a graphic designer to design a logo/company branding for them?

If so, how did you find the experience and did you pay a fortune?

I've always done my own TBH, but want something a bit special this time

I've found someone who's portfolio of work is tremendous, so am hopeful he can pull something out of the hat for me:smilewinkgrin:

I had mine done a few years ago by a designer. I wanted something based on a pyramid and if you see a high definition form you can see it's made up from woodplanks. I have one with just Ascot for my original tiling cards, letterheads etc. and one with 'Flooring' added. Cost me a hundred.

Spent a fortune years ago ( when you had to print each colour independently ) on a tile logo with a flower on.
It then cost a fortune again for every reprint!
Just one of the benefits of the internet now.

Hope your pleased with the investment - Good luck.

With being Eclipse Tiling I just drew 2 circles overlapping and coloured one orange and one black,looks great but I think it would be money well spent.

The graphic designer got back to me today - he's done me a cracking deal and although it is a non productive cost, I am 110% confident he will produce something fantastic His portfolio speaks for itself:smilewinkgrin:

I used to be a graphic designer but got fed up of people not wanting to pay for what I could achieve, I also got out of it just as the economy dipped and company's wanted less things designing. I still do things for myself and friends but I like keeping things clean and simple

Hi,
It depends what you are after I guess. you said you want something special but most graphic designers and most successfull logo's are based on a really simple design!

They certainly dont come cheap but i suppose if you pay top doller you are paying for a professional to brand your product with a prven track record.

As with anything you probably get what you pay for!
