How To Create A Brand Logo Online?

Creating a brand identity requires a lot of things. Asked about where to start when creating a brand, I would definitely start with a brand logo. Now, you may agree or disagree with me, but in my opinion it is definitely an important item on the menu of designing your brand identity.

Obviosly before anything else, you should already have a pretty good understanding of “who you are”. While designing your brand identity is extremely important, your mission, vision and values are all part of the big picture when marketing and connecting your brand to your customers.

With that said, designing your brand identity or logo for short, is first and foremost something you have to worry about as it the visual aspect of your identity. While logos solely can not make a brand, it helps very much in buidling a visual recognition of you.

How To Create Your Logo?

There are many ways you can create your logo. You can go through the expensive route of hiring a logo designer or use your creativity and build it yourself. Creating a logo can be easy and fun, or complicated and boring. I rather it be easy and fun than the latter.

4) At this stage, answer some question to help the logo maker understand and get to know your style better. Simply hit “dislike” or “like” and move on to the next. You will be given five choices to like or dislike. Once you are finished the logo maker start “thinking” and …

5) You are presented with some options to start with. Don’t worry, from here you can customize the logo.

6) If you don’t like the icon, click on the “change icon” above and search for whatever you like. Type in a keyword. As an example I am looking for a Scorpion Image

7) Click on the edit button and change the appearance, alingment, shape, font type, size of your icon, color and opacity, etc. The possibilities are really a lot.

8) Once you are done with your editing, you can click on the “right” and “left” arrows (located above the logo) to see how it will look like on a business card, a paper bag, etc…
