Help with Business Logo

Therrin

Well I'm trying to work out a logo for my business. Thought maybe you folks could give your input as to what you think looks catchy/noticeable or just sleek looking.

Any comments are welcome

Logo 1


Logo 3


Logo 4


Logo 5

Give a man a match and he'll be warm for a moment, but light him on fire and he'll be warm the rest of his life.

Logo 4 is the best

Where's a TreeWorld one?

Yeah, what ever happened to the Tree World Logo??

Last version of it I saw needed a little more work.


My brother's brother-in-law is doing my logo's, met up with him at a mother's day dinner and found out he's got a degree in web design or some such. We're kicking across ideas right now.


#4 is the pinnacle I've reached so far... Can't figure out what to do from there.

On my truck decals, the logo is dark green text over a black background for the header logo. I decided at some point that it isn't visible enough, so I'm experimenting with other combinations.

Black and white looks a little drab, but alot of colors don't mix and stand-out well.

I think no 4 is the best out of the bunch aswell, It's not easy working out a good logo. It comes to mind straight away or you sit there twiddling your thumbs.I've been trying to do one for Treeworld but everything I do Johno just pulls a face at...LOL.Ah what the heck here's a simple one I done for Treeworld, Hope you dont mind Ken putting it up in your thread.Please forgive the writing I did it freehand with a touch pad..LOL

<Ken reaches up above his head with both hands cupped and waits for a moment>


Nope, still didn't get it.



It looks like a good logo for BushWorld..... aren't trees supposed to look like things that can kill you?

It can and should be rearanged to suit,But just like Ken's logo,It doesn't matter how good or bad it is put it on the table or we will not have one.
It's all food for thought, It might inspire some one elses idea to come forward!
OK, Ken I just read your reply,mate its not that easy, While your mucking around with yours try and do one for Treeworld aswell,What type of Tree would you use..There's heaps...Let's face it it's probably going to be similier to one thats are out there.I've been taking notice as I get around and you either go abstract or picture like...It's not easy to do.However it does present easy enought just like tree work!

Why don't you put voting buttons on it?

My pick is number 5 - would look great on a truck and it's cheap to print too

Ekka

Good idea, poll added.

i voted for #5.

Not much in it between that and #4, but im not sold on the brown......

"Earthy".....

or

"Pooey".....

Mmmmm, dunno.

But nothing about the black one gives me doubts. It will work on any colour background too. The brown would be lost on anything red, orange or yellow.

Importantly, what is ITSA?

Does it stand for something?

Or are you saying in short, It is a Tree Service?

Going beyond a logo, have you given any thought to a USP?

Like a slogan that is your Unique Selling Point.

What do you do better, different, cheaper, faster, safer etc than the others?

It's actually a little fluid at the moment.

The DBA was set up as "ITSA Tree Service" as is.

I was toying around with the Intelligent Tree Service of America

or Intranational Tree Service & Arborists, or any mix of the two all though the latter is a little redundant and confusing.

Mostly just that "its'a tree service" is kinda catchy and people remember it. I know because they've told me so, so I decided to stick with it.

As far as the numbered pics, I went back and edited to remove one of the pics as I realized it was actually misspelled (how embarassing!) =)

USP..... USP... um...

I've got an H&K USP .40, does that count?

No really though, I'm still nailing down stuff like that. I'm not sure what I'd say, since I'm not entirely decided as to what sets me apart from those around me. I haven't really met them, never see them at work, and don't know which aftermath is who's labor... <shrugs>

I'll have to think of something I suppose, but till then I'm winging it without a slogan.

Around here,several people are afraid to hire a climber for thier trees?I think the guys who work strictly out of bucket say something to thier customers.

I've heard things around here like... "the cherry picker guy said that those climbers are all ????ing idiots. They don't know what they are doing and one can never know if the tree is gonna come down by itself or not."

I KNOW I'm gonna take a shot at this guy with a throwbag someday...

newguy18

Why not,they probabley say things like,we can do it better,i've even had guys undercut my bids and not fufill thier contracts with the customer.they also say climbers are idiots and such and even say that we're just thrill seekers and an unnessecary liability.there's a few of them i'd like to beat the hell out of.

They all look good. A little like the ISA logo, ITCC, ICIA, & some others. Easy to remember.
