Hiring a freelancer to design a company logo can prove to be challenging for many. A good logo needs to be relevant to your business, timely, simple, and relatable. It also facilitates company branding, which is essential for creating a reputable company image. Businesspersons unfamiliar with the concept of logo creation are advised to seek consultation from professional logo creators. Logo creators can guide you every step of the way when creating a company logo and brand image.
There are two types of logo creators; freelancers and established logo companies. Which is better between the two? Let’s see below:
Rights to use
One of the most important aspects of getting a business logo is earning the exclusive rights of using it. Freelances may not have the proper channel to acquiring such rights through trademarks and copyrights. On the other hand, established companies have a wide variety of pre-designed logos, which, upon customization, are explicitly trademarked for you and deleted from the database. An established company also gives you the source file of the logo to ensure originality.
Resources
Established companies have greater access to finances than freelancers. This gives them the upper hand when it comes to resources. A freelancer may have one or two computers to work with, which may slow down the progress due to machine downtime. Established companies have a pool of resources to tap when creating pre-designed logo ideas for clients, such as hiring logo creators who exclusively work in an agency capacity.
Efficiency
Freelancers often wait for the client to approach them to understand how best to design a company logo. After all, you have the branding idea that the freelance logo creator relies on to design the logo. Therefore, it takes a longer process to bring your logo idea into a reality. On the other hand, established companies have a pool of vetted designers that constantly create pre-designed and customizable logos. All it takes is a simple survey of available logos in your field of interest and a little customization to make the logo relevant to your business.
Inspiration
Freelance logo creators often prefer creating a logo from the client’s perspective. They wait for the client’s input and build up from there. While there is nothing wrong with this, coming up with an inspiration for a logo could prove to be challenging. On the other hand, established companies have a pool of pre-designed logo designs that you can source inspiration from. You get to choose pre-designed logos from various fields such as technology, medicine, the food industry, etc. The good news is, they are highly customizable to blend in with your brand idea.
It is as clear as day that one is better off working with an established company compared to freelancers. Logo Is Us is one such established company.
