The Best Designers NEEDED!

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by chris123, Apr 3, 2008.

    We're looking for some quick feedback from the digitalpoint designers.

    I run a marketing and design company that supplies logos to real world clients. I run contests on here regularly with mixed results; sometimes I get the best of the best posting and sometimes I get the designers who's logos look like they were made in Microsoft Publisher with some clipart!

    What I'd like to do is assemble a small outsourced team of the best designers I can find that are highly skilled and reliable.

    When a client comes to us wanting a logo we'd contact the team, issuing them the specification (and any ideas the client has) and the designer would come back with a concept logo (or as many as they are willing to create).

    We then send the concepts back to the client who then picks one. That designer is then paid.

    What I'd like to know is;

    1) As a designer, is this idea appealing?
    2) What do you think is a fair price per logo?
    - The average seems to be about $20-30 on digitalpoint.
    3) How many logos are you averaging per week currently?
    4) Any other feedback is appreciated!

    Post some examples of your work too, then I'll know who the best designers for the team are!

    1) As a designer, is this idea appealing? neutral for me.. as we dont know whether there is a continous work per week basis
    2) What do you think is a fair price per logo? Depends upon the company and their budget along with other aspects, i think anywhere from $20 - $400[ which i see in 99designs]
    - The average seems to be about $20-30 on digitalpoint.
    3) How many logos are you averaging per week currently? one a day , becuase more will damage the thinking and output
    4) Any other feedback is appreciated! -- I think its better to hire on weekly or monthly basis assigning/agreement [ i mean this many logo per week or a month]

    This is my thought , please reply yours :)

    Idea sounds good,

    I think anywhere from $25 to say $250 is good,

    I usually do anywhere from 3-10 a week
