It is not just a mere identity for your company but also shows the class, strength and uniqueness of what your business represents. Many customers and clients will associate your business with the way your company logo makes them feel. So this tells you that how your clients perceive your company logo is vital to your business in terms of sales and branding.

The well thought out logo you design for your company today will be used for many years to identify your business. The logo may in future be used on T-shirts, prints, websites, emails, banners etc. in creating more awareness for your business. This is one good reason you should not think just cheap in your company logo development. The cheap logo may not properly relay all your company’s strength and uniqueness, thus the need to look beyond where you are now and think of what your business will look like in the years to come.

WHY IS A LOGO SO IMPORTANT TO YOUR BUSINESS?

Q: Why is it important?
Q: Does it matter what it looks like?
Q: Is your brand professional?

These are good questions to ask when considering getting a logo design or looking to rebrand your business.

The truth is, a logo speaks volumes about your company, straight away it tells your “future clients” if you are reliable and instills trust in them. Although offering a good service or quality product is highly important, how you initially present yourself is what will win you their trust and in the end win them as a client. As I have already mentioned, how good your service or product is will decide if you are successful long term, but the initial image of your company says many things to potential clients / customers:

1. Are these guys professional?
2. Do they seem to care about their business (which in turns means do you care about your clients)?
3. Does their business seem to be one I can trust?

A good logo design is highly instrumental in establishing a business brand and creating a long lasting impression among its customers. It should be able to create a powerful impact on the viewers and successfully exude the nature and attitude of a business. Ideally, a company logo design should be able to communicate your company ethos, principles, mission and the nature of product or service offered.

A professional logo design will establish a professional image of your company and strengthen your brand. Actually, in most cases the consumer gets the first impression about your company through your logo. Your logo should build a brand that is strong enough to give your consumer a visual imagery of your company. People should be able to identify your company on sight of your logo.

A professional image can be as simple as a text logo with a different colour letter in it to give it a unique twist, or a logo with a complex symbol to represent the company ideals and it’s philosophy. Making it unique and professional is what is important, a poor quality logo can be negative to the image of your company and may do more damage to your business than you might care to think!

Above all else, remember one thing – First impressions last!

GOOD DESIGN IS GOOD BUSINESS

Many people today invest in good design for the same reason: They want their company or product to be identifiable, credible and manageable to their employees, customers, competitors and peers.

Good design has become a real differentiator. Thanks to a myriad of factors (price, technology and lower manufacturing costs), we’re living in a more commoditized marketplace making aesthetic appeal, “the look and feel,” an even more important means of differentiation. So much so that companies are now taking aesthetics to a whole new level. Consider how companies like Apple or Sony have successfully merchandised design to the masses.

Here’s how good design can impact your brand and your business:
Good design helps shape experience. Aesthetic appeal is an integral part of a customer’s experience of a company or product and plays a key role in building brand image. The “quality” of experience that your audience has with your company is the most influencing factor in shaping their attitude towards it.

Good design helps establish trust. Professional design helps to establish a company as trustworthy. According to a recent report by Nielson/NetRatings, 77% of respondents reported they were more likely to make a purchase from an unfamiliar business with a “quality” brand when compared to a poor looking brand. Consumers are often wary of businesses that “look” unprofessional.

Good design stands out from the competition. Pick up any magazine and thumb through it. You’ll find that bad looking brands far outweigh the good. Or drive down the street and look at all the signs. If your business invests in quality design, you will stand out from your competitors. As business management guru, Tom Peters once said, “In a world loaded with stuff that looks like all the other stuff and performs like all the other stuff, design is a way to stand out.”

Good design helps improve stickiness. It costs far more to get a customer than to keep one. Good design affects loyalty, trial and word-of-mouth. When your customers become your sales people, you get far more sales than you would without their recommendations.

Make good design a true differentiator and you’ll be rewarded with the advantage over your competitors.
