The questions we ask before we design a logo

Crafting identities, shaping impressions

Before we design a logo for a client, it's essential that we gather as much information as possible to ensure the design aligns with their brand identity and goals. Here are some questions that we ask as part of our process:

1. Company Background:

  • Can you tell me about your company and its history?

  • What products or services do you offer?

  • Who is your target audience?

2. Brand Identity:

  • How would you describe your brand's personality or character?

  • What are the core values of your brand?

  • Do you have any specific brand guidelines or existing visual assets?

3. Competitive Analysis:

  • Who are your main competitors, and how do you differentiate yourself from them?

  • Are there any logos or brands you admire in your industry or elsewhere?

4. Logo Objectives:

  • What do you want the logo to communicate about your brand?

  • Do you have any specific concepts or ideas in mind for the logo?

  • Are there any elements or symbols that you would like to include or avoid?

5. Practical Considerations:

  • Where will the logo primarily be used (e.g., website, business cards, signage)?

  • Do you have any color preferences or existing color schemes?

  • Do you have any specific requirements regarding size or scalability?

6. Timeline and Budget:

  • What is your desired timeline for the logo design project?

  • Do you have a budget in mind for this project?

7. Feedback and Revision Process:

  • How involved would you like to be in the design process?

  • What is your preferred method of providing feedback and revisions?

8. Future Plans:

  • Are there any upcoming changes or expansions to your business that the logo should consider?

  • Do you envision any potential changes to your brand identity in the future?

By asking these questions, we gain a better understanding of our client's needs and preferences, and this will help create a logo that effectively represents their brand.
