Logo Designs Business Cards Brochures Design Packages




   

A logo is a graphical element that, together with its logotype (a uniquely set and arranged typeface), form a trademark or commercial brand. Typically, a logo's design is for immediate recognition, inspiring trust, admiration, loyalty and an implied superiority. The logo is one aspect of a company's commercial brand, or economic entity, and its shapes, colors, fonts, and images usually are different from others in a similar market. Logos are also used to identify organizations and other non-commercial entities.

Logo design is an important area of graphic design, and one of the most difficult to perfect. The logo is the image embodying an organization. Because logos are meant to represent companies' brands or corporate identities and foster their immediate customer recognition, it is counterproductive to frequently redesign logos.

The Importance of a Logo

The initial lack of customers and cash flow often causes new small business owners to put off designing a logo and marketing materials professionally "until they get a few clients" or "until they get started." Unfortunately, designing their own marketing materials when they launch their businesses instead of having them professionally created will make getting those initial clients more difficult and may result in a business that will not succeed.

Many entrepreneurs choose to design their own marketing materials when they launch their businesses, especially by creating their first business card. Or sometimes they will have an amateur designer, friend, or relative create the design. There are several reasons why this is not the best idea. An amateur logo design and business card can make your business more likely to fail for a number of reasons.

You will look unpolished and rough. Not having a professional "look and feel" can make it appear as though your business does not matter to you. Customers may get the impression that you do not care about the way your business presents itself, which might indicate that you would not care about the quality of your work or the way that your work reflects upon their business.

A company's brand can be vital to its success. Dollar for dollar, it is as important and needed as any other start-up activity.

Never underestimate the importance of a first impression.

Creating a suitable logo or corporate identity does not have to be difficult, but it is extremely important. You should never underestimate the importance of a first impression. Your logo or corporate identity is in most cases the first impression your business will make on a potential customer or client, and with the business world being as competitive as ever, a first impression might be the only impression you get to make. In other words...

Your logo or corporate identity speaks volumes about your business, who you are, what you do, and how you do it.

Getting past the first impression, your logo or corporate identity is a powerful reminder, keeping your business fresh in the mind of your customers or clients.

Logos do not have to be expensive to be effective.

Your Logo is the image your business portrays. It sets the potential clients position and interpretation of your business or company. Count how many logos you see around you right now: your computer screen, radio, mouse, bath towels, T-shirt, sneakers, clothing tags, even your toothbrush and hairbrush. Every distinct image reminds you of the product or service. Next time your driving home from work notice how the world is painted with logos and images of existing entities which remind us of their products or services. The really good logos are the ones you remember because they've made an impression. They stand out in a crowd infested with products where there can be thousands of different logos and packages.

The impact of a logo is so powerful, it often means the difference between the success of your business or that of your competitor.

Small & medium sized businesses today face the ultimate challenge of creating a long lasting solid first impression. Key issues in establishing corporate identity for a starting or small business rest in establishing goals, business plans, and image. Yet, most tend to sway away or forget that the first realization of your business is brought upon by the company logo. The important consideration in creating a corporate identity will help to "kick-start" the birth an existence in your field of choice and will show others that your company cares about its image.

Your Logo comes with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee:

To begin your Logo Design process, you will be required to pay a 50% non-refundable fee. If, at any time during the design process, we are unable to create a logo that you are 100% satisfied with, you will not be liable for the remaining 50% fee.

   BUSINESS CARDS

The corporate world in which we communicate and trade requires us to have some means through which we can be recognized. This is the reason why every representative in an organization has a business card.

Without recognition, it is not possible to get any business. Our businesses are only promoted through recognition, which means that we need to be aware of the tools to gain recognition.

Most probably, you have heard of companies having basic things like letterheads, business cards, email addresses, and even logos. These are all considered to be vital tools for recognition. This is because when people see or have these before them, they can recall us easily; they will have our logos or our fonts in their minds as well. This means that when they see our symbols anywhere, they would also be able to recognize them immediately.

In addition to recognizing our trademarks anywhere, people and business contacts are able to get in touch with us through vital communicating tools such as business cards. Business cards have our contact information on them and provide recall far greater than we can imagine.

Business cards are extremely important to most organizations and individuals as well. A business card can help an individual be recognized and promote the services one provides. Whether a business card is used to promote a one-man business operation or is used to represent a particular member of a large company, it has a few basic features. Some of these features include:

A name
A logo
Contacts
Telephone number
Fax number
Email address
Website address
Key colors
Key words or captions

Each of these features on a business card is of great importance because with out these vital and basic features, a business card would fail to serve the purpose it should.

If your business card is simple and attractive, those who see it will immediately get your message. You also do not want to create something that is too plain and uninteresting, as this would not represent your creativity.

Why You Need Business Cards

Business cards make handy exchange items. When you meet a new contact person or a professional networking colleague or a potential client, you can readily provide your name, title, and contact information to someone who may use it to contact you later. In return, you may receive other people's cards to keep on file for future follow-up. They are a great way to present yourself to other people quickly and easily.

Business cards help others remember your name. When you interview someone, make a presentation, or brush elbows at conferences, you can quickly provide your business card with the correct spelling of your name and contact details to those who might otherwise forget it, misspell it, or be too embarrassed to ask again. Having a tangible reminder is helpful to someone who, after an introduction or meeting, thinks it over and decides to get in touch. Instead of searching for a scrap piece of paper with your name scribbled on it, the person can pull out a card and promptly get in touch.

Business cards give a professional impression. Having them sit on your desk, tucked into a coat pocket, or assembled with an information packet at a seminar tell others that you care about your role and the company you work for, as well as making yourself available to those that may be interested in your expertise or product line. Attractive cards represent your professional persona in your absence.

Business cards provide creative opportunities for self-expression. You can choose from a variety of colors, combine shades, select a font style and size, rearrange the design and information, add a quote or more information on the reverse side, and in general have fun deciding how to represent yourself on this small card. Obviously, you want to create the most effective design that will help others see you in the best possible light.

Business cards can accompany mailed letters, sales materials, and proposals. They serve a variety of purposes and interests. If you are serious about the business you are in, business cards may be a good investment.

   BROCHURES

Why does your business need a brochure?

First and foremost, a brochure is just as important and basic a tool as your business card. However, where your business card simply introduces you as an individual, your company brochure introduces your entire company. It is like an executive summary of your operation and offerings. It is an important marketing and sales tool, one in which you can do a little bragging and shamelessly present your credentials in the most favourable light. It is your opportunity to create a lasting impression. Make sure that it is a good one.

A business card to a potential client can present only a tiny amount of information about your business. It may get their attention to begin with, but then may be forgotten later on. Potential clients are often swamped with business meetings, and daily routines. A business card may be scanned for a couple of seconds then placed in a never-ending pile. A face-to-face meeting is a great way to talk about your business, but that's not always possible. Or, what if someone you've met weeks ago suddenly becomes interested in your service but can't match your name with your business card in their never-ending pile?

A brochure will take care of all these problems.

Brochures are a great way to package a lot of information about yourself, your business, and expertise into a format that is easily mailed or handed out at a business meeting, or given to current clients to pass on to potential referrals.

Brochures can be as simple as a two-fold design or as elaborate as a pocket folder. Good brochure design involves not simply producing a flashy design, but a careful analysis of your target market, what level of sophistication is needed, and consideration of your market niche in order to make a great first impression. And, last but certainly not least, your brochure should leave a potential client with something he or she is hesitant to throw away.

In today's business world, it's easy to assume that a website can take the place of a printed brochure. Having a web site really can't replace the immediate visual impact of placing a brochure into a prospective client's hands. Instead, they should go hand-in-hand together.

A Good Brochure must leave the reader with the impression that yours is a solid, reliable company and therefore its products must be equally as good, solid and reliable. It is a corner stone in building trust with your prospective customers. It must leave the reader wanting to learn more about your company, thus leading them to your website!

A Bad Brochure Is Like Bad Breath.

No one will tell you what is wrong, but they will avoid you, or in this case, your company. Your brochure, along with your phone number, will simply go right to the trash.

When that happens, you will find you have done more than just waste your money and time. You have turned a prospect into a permanent no sale without even getting a chance to get in the door. If you saved a few hundred dollars on producing your brochure, was it worth it?

A badly done or cheap looking brochure reflects badly on you, your company and your products. Do not scrimp. A company which economizes on a brochure may also be seen as scrimping on its products or services.

Let Dacia's Artistic Solutions take the worry out of your brochure design today!

All of our custom designed brochures include unlimited revisions and full unlimited colors.
