How to Find YOUR Logo

January 7, 2020

Discovering your logo is a journey, not a one-stop-shop.

Many online logo design programs present you with a limited number of clipart-like designs users can customize with color and name, but little else. Small businesses often turn to this option because of ease or pricing, but small businesses have a hard enough time standing out in the sea of big box stores and chain retailers that have branded themselves with some of the most recognizable logos that exist...and that did NOT come from an online logo design program. Working with a designer, your logo becomes an identity—not just a placeholder.

A custom logo designer, like Behind Your Design , will discuss with you your vision, inspiration and goals to create a logo that is as individual and unforgettable as your business. Our recent logo design for Interiors by Bonnie drew inspiration from a patterns found in filigree work and a wallpaper design. Inspiration can be found anywhere, but the online logo design sites don't allow that level of customization. Because of the lack of options, many businesses settle. Your logo is a visual representation of your business, and you didn't just settle on your business.

Your logo should speak your company's culture, your brand's voice, your business's story. Without words, how would you describe your business? A designer knows the questions to ask to get the answer. Your business is unique to you, and your logo should be as well. Having a designer will help you remain focused and on brand.

As much as a logohelps your customers recognize your work, your logoalso puts a value on the work you do. People want the Nike logo, not because they are fans of orange checkmarks, but because they know they are getting the quality associated with the Nike brand. A logothat is individual and recognizable lets people know you are proud of the work you do and you are willing to put your brand's "stamp of approval" on it.

Behind Your Design loves working with businesses to discover their identity and amplify their voice. A custom logo gives your clients a way to identify you and your work at a glance. Make sure your logo represents you. Contact Behind Your Design today to discuss logo design and branding options.

At Behind Your Design, we enjoy partnering with businesses that are passionate about what they do. That is exactly what we found while working with Superior Lawn & Landscape. From launching a new website to developing branded merchandise and planning a grand opening celebration, this project focused on supporting the continued growth of a company proud to serve its clients. A Website Designed to Reflect the Brand One of the first steps was creating a website that showcases the professionalism, experience, and range of services Superior Lawn & Landscape offers. The goal was to build a strong digital presence that clearly communicates the company’s capabilities while making it easy for potential clients to explore their services. Clean layouts, organized service pages, and strong visuals guide visitors through the site while highlighting the company’s landscaping expertise and portfolio. The website also incorporates content from clients and partners, allowing real voices and experiences to help tell the story of the brand. Capturing the Work Through Photography To bring authenticity to the website, we coordinated a professional photo shoot to capture the team, their equipment, and examples of completed projects. Custom photography adds personality and allows visitors to see the craftsmanship and attention to detail in each project. Extending the Brand Beyond the Website Our partnership did not stop with the website. We also created a collection of custom branded merchandise to thank clients and promote the brand. Items included blankets, flashlights, beach towels, Melin hats, tumblers, and key chains, keeping the brand visible throughout the community. Celebrating the Next Chapter With the new website and branding pieces in place, the next step is celebrating this milestone. Behind Your Design is planning Superior Lawn & Landscape’s grand opening celebration on Thursday, June 4. The event will bring together clients, partners, and community members to celebrate the company’s continued growth. We are proud to work alongside Superior Lawn & Landscape and look forward to seeing their team continue to create beautiful outdoor spaces for years to come.

When you're choosing a spring or summer promo item, the real question is simple: Will someone actually use this? If you live anywhere near lakes, boats, kayaks, camping, or summer travel, dry bags are a no-brainer. These aren’t just cute swag items. They’re so functional. You put your phone, wallet, keys, towel, inside, anything you don’t want getting wet. Roll the top down. Clip it shut. It seals everything in. If it falls in the water? Your stuff stays dry. That alone makes it valuable. And here’s what we love about them from a branding standpoint, not many companies are doing them yet. Everyone has water bottles and tote bags. A dry bag stands out. Even better? It actually lives with someone all summer long. In their kayak. On their boat. In their camper. At the beach. At tournaments. On vacation. That’s real visibility. If you're planning a golf outing, marina promotion, summer festival, or outdoor corporate event, this is the kind of promo piece people will thank you for and keep.
