Logo Designers - sell unused logos

There is a new site that talented logo designers should check out. IncSpring is a place where designers can sell unused concepts and new ideas.

http://incspring.com

 

Can you guide more on the Procedures of this Site.?

 

Wow the logos are crazily priced. Some designers sure have their heads in the clouds somewhere

 

Wow ! I am also going to check there. Thanks for the link Wilson!

 

I think REAL designers should value their work and charge the highest prices as they can. A professional designer is not like someone who just knows how to mess around the softwares. If somebody asks who made your logo, you would be able to say it was made by a professional designer. Not "I don't know, I bought it for $5, or uhh who cares who made it". Hiring a real professional aggregates value to the image of your business. That is why if you take your business seriously you shouldn't charge someone who doesn't really know what they're doing, like adding RANDOM colors or effects on a picture. A logo is the most important visual identity of a company. Whenever you see it, you're able to tell which company it's from. Strong like that. I don't think nike, coke and other popular trademarks would sell their logo for $5. Their images would go downhill. THAT is how much a logo is worth.

 

erm wrong there! Nike brought there logo for $60 from a random uni student when they first started off... So you might want to take Nike out lol.

 

1st - it was back in 1971 with completely different dollar value.
2nd - the designer was given "a gold Swoosh ring and an envelope filled with Nike stock"* afterwards.

*) after Wikipedia

 

Well back then Nike was just getting started too. So it didn't really matter what they used for the logo. Not that this was a bad design but
I think the logo only became recognized more and more as Nike became a well known company. Because this company makes great shoes and they are known around the world so is their logo known around the world.
If the company was no good then probably no none would care about their logo. I think they go hand in hand.

 

A4hire - agreed. This is the way people judge logos sometimes: big company = good logo. Which is not always true

 

I have to agree with a4hire & varelse on the latest posts....

It seems that a majority (around 80%) of my logo clients that provide samples of logo's they like, tend to be large corporations with million dollar marketing / advertising campaigns. Huge corporate conglomerates that have saturated the consumer with ads & freebies branded with their company logo & name, thus causing a psychological memory effect (Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Remembered).

Because the logo is remembered it's automatically assumed to be in style & a reason for a companies success! This is where the Not true part comes into play. It's not the logo that made the company, but the company's products / services / customer support / public relations that made the logo. One can have a logo just starting out that everyone looks at & says, man, you paid for that? it's terrible ..... Yet 1-2 years later, same logo, same company, difference is the company hit the right niche & is now a fortune 500 corporation, people start saying, WOW, nice logo, sweet, That's all you paid for it? I want one too

Funny how things work out that way.... A famous saying is: Crazy is measured Merely by the level of ones own success!

Just my 2 cents on all this

 

I don't think so, $500-800 are common price for medium company logo in offline market.

Btw interesting thread, I remember what JSB Morse said about logo :

A great logo must follow basic design principles
A great logo must be functional
A great logo must represent the company
A great logo must be unique

I agree, I mean I don't do a lot of logo design but , I ordered a logo once for a friend of mine and the cost was around $600.

 

that's really too high , I think 50$ could make something really professional

 

It based on the company

- home based/small/startup company $600 logo : expensive
- medium company $600 logo : common price
- large company $600 logo : cheap

 

i create logos for 10$
contact me

 

Head.... clouds...

 

hey debdeep1988, dont go doing that, its really stupid.. make a new topic

i reckon they cost waaay too much.. i seen the logos and you can get those types of logos here for like $25 if you know what your doing..

 

Exactly Right.


Thanks for the site, i might try sell one or two of my designs on there.
