There are a number of design firms on the internet which are claiming that they can develop a professional looking construction logo for $200 or less. For many, this would sound like some sort of scam. Most are used to paying at least 5 times that amount to have a logo custom designed for them by a professional designer.
Is this claim for real or is this just a scam by designers who provide substandard designs to unsuspecting customers?
The truth is there are professional designers who do provide excellent designs for very low prices. However, there are those who unfortunately provide substandard designs for the same price. So the trick is to uncover the ones who are legit.
Prices
As the adage goes 'Time Is Money'. What these affordable designers have done is simply make the design process - from start to end - much shorter. What they have done is save time on research and information gathering. There are no one hour phone calls to the clients to find out in-depth information about the company. And unlike design packages which cost $5000, those which cost $200 or less do not come with a logo usage manual once the project is done.
The designs that these designers provide are of good quality. The designers might not have researched the company in extreme detail before designing but any information provided is used to good effect. Designs are clean and in some cases very detailed.
Cues To Lookout For
The more reputable design firms, more often than not, offer unlimited revisions to their design concepts until the final design is reached. This is to ensure customers get what they want. However, in the event that they do not, many firms offer 100% money back guarantees. Money back guarantees are like a safety net so ensure that you select a design company which clearly has this displayed in their design package.
Expectations
Do not be shocked to view your first concepts in just 3 business days. Most of these designers have been in the business for at least a decade and understand different industry design requirements, and are able to conjure a quality design withing that time mentioned. Expect to view at least 2 original concepts. When the project is completed, ensure you also get your logo in a vector format which will enable you to use your logo for printing purposes if need be.
