5 Practical Tips to Boost Self Esteem
Incorporate these simple tips into your day to give your self esteem a boost.

9 Keys to an Effective Logo
The right logo, with the right characteristics, will boost your visibility, credibility and memorablity – which means more business for you! These characteristics include:

When To Use A Text-Only Logo
A text logo (also sometimes called a logotype or word mark) is a logo largely made up of the text of the company's name. This type of logo can have some graphic elements-lines, boxes, borders-that interact with, surround, or even form the letters. However, the graphic elements should be used as an accent to the text, not as a major or equally-weighted part of the logo.

When To Use A Symbol Logo
A symbol logo is the opposite extreme in design from a text logo. This type of logo includes neither words nor letters-only symbols, images and shapes.

Why Combination Logos Are So Popular
A logo that in some manner combines both a symbol and the company name. The symbol and text can be integrated together, side by side, or with one located above the other.

Is Your Business Ready For A Logo?
You're just starting your business. Opening a bank account, getting a business license, and setting up your office are top priorities. And, of course, the question of stationery and marketing comes up. If you're starting a business, you need business cards. And probably stationery. And a website. All this means you need to design a logo immediately, right?

What Your Logo Designer Needs to Know About Your Business
If someone asks me to design a logo based on a tiny bit of information, then I have to make just as many assumptions about the personality of the business, its customers, and the owner's personal taste as I do in creating my hypothetical dinner. And the logo I design winds up being more about me and my preferences than about my client's business.

How to Get the Logo You Want
Are you having a hard time getting the logo you want? If you're working with a designer and looking for "just the right" logo but getting sketches that cause nothing but frustration, don't despair. I've worked with many clients on difficult projects and come reasonably close to reading their minds without having ESP. Here are some tips to help you get your logo done right:

A Logo Without Your Name... Can Be A Big Branding Pain!
I often get asked to develop a small business's logo as a symbol-only logo. But for many small businesses, this isn't the right choice for a couple of reasons:

No Logo? Launching a Business Without a Logo Can Sabotage You
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 reason.

Time to "Get Over" the Rainbow (in your logo, that is)
Rainbows are wonderful, but if you try to bring that natural beauty into your logo with tons of color, you'll be setting yourself up for unnatural disasters.

Why Entrepreneurs Divorce Their Logos (And Why It's A Bad Idea)
Remember how excited you were when you first designed your logo? How beautiful you thought it was, and how you couldn't wait to get your first batch of business cards printed so you could show it off? How you excitedly described its meaning and subtleties to your mom (and your clients?) And the rush to the trademark office to get your new love "made official"-what excitement when the papers finally arrived!

The Domino Effect of Changing Your Logo
What does redesigning really mean? Think back to the first time you designed your logo-the work, time, expense, and thought you had to put into the project. Just because this is a redesign doesn't mean that it will be any easier than the first time around. In fact, it may be more difficult since you're more invested in your business and brand than you were when you first launched it.

Signs It's Time To Redesign Your Company's Brand
When you first start a small business, you create your brand based on your hopes and plans for the future of the company. Sometimes this is based on experience, but more often than not it's based on a guess. Then once you actually start doing business, you may find that your business isn't following the same path you set out on.

Rebranding Is an Excuse to Party in Your Business
Once the redesign is done, many small businesses launch it silently. They change their logos, business cards, and websites one day-sometimes without so much as an announcement or a "By the way... " to their customers. Not only are they potentially confusing and alienating them, but they're also missing out on a great excuse to party!

A Logo Isn\'t A Tattoo! Why Your Personal Tastes Have Nothing To Do With Your Logo
I designed her first round of the logo to reflect the brand that she'd been setting up for herself. But, when she got the initial designs, I got an almost immediate call back - she hated them! We talked a bit about her brand, her clients and their tastes, and all of the things that I take into consideration when designing a brand. And we talked about how the sketches reflected those considerations. But then the real problem came out - she actually had a bigger vision for her logo.

Logo Files Versions of your logo that you should own.
Your logo is the most important graphic element in which you will invest for your business. You should own the logo in many file formats. Having a library of logo files will enable you to send vendors the types of files they need (for example, other designers, printers, or other service providers).
