Making Your Logo Memorable

The more important something is to a company the harder it is to really make it work. Stop for a moment and consider all the major companies you know. Now ask yourself how many of them have a logo?

Odds are the answer is quite a few, if not all. Logos are everywhere in our society, but just because a lot of companies have them, that doesn’t mean they’re an easy thing to create.

For any logo to work, it needs to have certain traits. If you look at the logos you know of, I’m sure you’ll start recognizing a trend. The first thing you might notice is that all of the logos are describable. What does this mean? The designs are going to be simple yet unique and something a person could describe to someone else. This is important if you want word to spread about your company.

You also want your logo to be memorable if you really want a person to want to describe it to someone else. Think about the Apple computers logo. Immediately you know exactly what it is, you can easily describe it to another person, and given the familiar nature of it you’re likely to remember it long after the first time you see it.

The Apple logo is also important for the next point. The size of the logo and the color scheme of the logo should be able to be placed anywhere and still be distinguishable as the same logo. Why does this matter so much?

What do you intend to do with your logo? If you have any intention to make use of business card printing you’re likely to want your logo on the card. A business card is the perfect place to insert your logo. A miniature Apple logo is just as important as a large one, and no matter what color it comes in, you still know it’s an Apple product.

Going along with the notion of business cards you should be sure to include your logo with anything else associated with your business. Use letterhead printing to ensure every letter you send out has both your company name and your logo on it. No matter what type of product you see from Apple you’re going to see their logo on it. Make sure this is true of your company as well.

While it certainly isn’t an easy thing to design, a logo can be a very important marketing tool. Giving a person a visual aid to remember you can be a very effective practice. A person doesn’t need to see the word apple to know what company their dealing with. All they need is a simple, small, distinctive picture to accomplish the same thing.
