Making a powerful logo can often be a complicated process. The end goal is something that easily represents your brand in a simple yet striking way. Despite some of the best logos being nice and simple, it can be hard work to brainstorm ideas for a logo, and it’s certainly hard to find something that everybody in your business is happy with.

However, there are certain tips to ensure the end result is both something that will set your business up for success, and something that customers will easily remember.

The Various Types of Logos

 
There are various types of logos that may work for different types of businesses. If you look at the biggest companies in history, their logos are usually very simple and font-based. For example, both Microsoft and Samsung literally have just their name in their logo. This style can be very effective and work well with many forms of media.

Another type of logo style is the use of a symbol. When brainstorming symbol ideas, it would be wise to think about the services your business provides, instead of the name behind your business. From here, you’ll want to work on a symbol that clearly shows the kind of services you can offer. A symbol can also be linked to the tag line or slogan. Just make sure that the end user “gets it” and that the two marry well together.

With more help on brainstorming ideas, try to think of what your business offers to your community in one simple sentence. This should be used as the basis for your brainstorming. Don’t feel shy to check out other logos from businesses in your industry for ideas, either – successful businesses rely on good brand recognition, and a powerful logo is as important is it gets when it comes to branding.
