How do I create a logo?

Recently just got done helping a friend that owns a catering business rehabilitate their website. We didn't do much besides add a blog and re-arrange the pages to flow more smoothly and look more professional.



The big part was that we were able to show him how his website was built. Someone had purchased, as a gift, a website package for him from GoDaddy. Now anyone that knows anything about building web content knows, GoDaddy is not the best platform to build websites with.

Not only do they limit what you are able to do and hide access to key parts of your website, but every time you try and call them, they will try and sell you something that should be included.

And more than that, their website builder is cookie cutter and not very dynamic.

Anyways, now that I'm done with my GoDaddy rant.. which I could go on and on about, let me get to how to create a most perfect logo for your business.

Like many others my friend did not know where to start when he asked me, "How do I create a logo?" It seems pretty clear cut, especially if you are reading this, since you are likely already an active Googler!

But maybe your friend or someone you know isn't and you can print this article out and hand it to them :) or e-mail it to them!

Or even better, instead of buying them a crappy GoDaddy website subscription, buy them a consultation with Jumpswell so they don't get stuck with something they don't like.

So I told him, Google logo generators. Here is the actual conversation that took place.



Hey I need to work on this logo on the gift a chef page.. Where should I go to do that
Okay i googled logo generator and found this site http://www.logogenie.net/business-domain/food-restauration/chef and pinterest https://www.pinterest.com/explore/chef-logo/ and the search logo generator gives me this site http://www.designmantic.com/index12?utm_expid=68723407-23.SLdNNZJlRqWI36f2cKxbOA.1&utm_referrer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com that looks good... like i was saying.. get a good idea of what you want and screenshot it on mac is command key + shift + 4 and send it to me and i can remake it for you

Ok sounds good lemme see how far I get

Oh this is tight player !

So you can generate whatever I like off here ?

Hows the logo search coming?! Theres a lot out there huh?

Yeah still working on it, I need to find some progressive style logos, everything i see is VERY elementary
Yeah just keep in mind simetimes a simple logo can say the most.
.google cool food logos and look at the images that google finds
"Cool food logos
Ok so in a nutshell, using Google to get ideas is the best place to start. There are tons of options and customizations that can take place but just getting an idea of where to start is a lot of times the hardest part.

Your logo has to be something you are proud of. Also, it needs to be something that represents what your company stands for.

If you are a catering company that caters to high end customers, you want your logo to look professional and clean cut. If you are a caterer that caters BBQ events and parties, you want your logo to look maybe animated and loosely put together.

However you go about it, Google images, Pinterest and logo generators are going to be your best bet to put your creative foot in the dirt and start getting feel for the course.
