Our latest blog post reveals the 5 crucial lessons I wish someone had told me when I first started designing logos. These insights could save you months (or even years) of frustrating trial and error.
What You'll Discover:
Why your initial concept probably isn't your best one
The client isn’t the expert, your hired for a reason

Bonus Tips:
Lesson #1: Your first idea is rarely your best
When I started designing logos, I'd fall in love with my initial concept and stop exploring. The best designers push past their first ideas and develop a process that leads to truly distinctive work.
Lesson #2: Scalability matters more than you think
A beautiful logo that only works on a billboard isn't a successful logo. Develop technique to ensure every design works across all applications.
