Logo Design Process for New Brands


The logo design process includes three main phases:

Discovery Phase:
Learning about the client's product or brand. It's important to also know the target audience.  The more you understand about the brand, the easier it is to visualize a logo concept.
    Conceptualization Phase:
    This is the fun part, in this phase you put "pen to paper". I like to rough in 3 different concepts for the client to choose from.

    Here are the applications used:
      • Google Chrome (industry research)
      • Sketch pad (a.k.a. pencil and paper)
      • Adobe Illustrator (vector based illustration)
      • Gmail (email communication)
      • Google Fonts (downloadable typeface)
      • Adobe Fireworks (drop-shadows, bezels)
    Refining Phase:
    After determining which style the customer prefers, it's time to finalize the logo. This includes experimenting with color combinations, and minor position tweaks, letter kerning, etc.

    Cost:
    Typical small business logo design cost is $200-$400, this is ballpark estimate of course.

    Universal Search / Blended Search

    Image
    If I had to recommend one thing regarding SEO/inbound marketing...embrace the social media tools like blogging, Twitter , Facebook, YouTube, etc. Google is transforming the way it ranks content: http://www.wired.com/magazine/2010/02/ff_google_algorithm/ You can already get a hint at what's on the horizon with universal or blended search (Websites, video, images, local maps, and even social "mentions"). According to Google, "The ultimate goal of universal search is to break down the silos of information that exist on the web and provide the very best answer every time a user enters a query." If a potential customer has a question...it makes sense to provide Google with your "very best answer".

    Bacon Wrapped Strip Steak

    Image
    Bacon Wrapped Strip Steaks My first attempt at cooking bacon-wrapped steaks on my propane-fueled Weber grill.  They turned out great! I started by prepping the steaks. I seasoned them with a bit of salt and pepper. Next, I wrapped each steak with a strip of bacon, securing it with a toothpick. I grilled them for about 6 minutes on each side until the bacon was crispy and the meat cooked to a medium rare temperature. I removed the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Then, I sliced them into thin strips and served them up. The bacon-wrapped strip steaks were delicious. It was the perfect summertime meal! The bacon added a salty and smoky flavor to the juicy and flavorful meat.
