Logo Design Brief
I need a simple modern logo (WITH or WITHOUT symbol) for my business 'property groom'.
We provide a service that makes a RESIDENTIAL property (IE a HOME) more appealing to buyers, and their owners. Our hands-on service includes gardening/landscaping, house washing and water blasting, minor painting and repairs. We also are total management of house preparation (exterior & interior) through to successful sale & handover to new owner.
The design of the logo should clearly communicate what we do, in a style that promotes professionalism, attention to detail, clean & uncomplicated, and differentiation. (font style).
In terms of other elements within the logo, it would be of value to communicate that we can provide services that groom the exterior and interior, for property that is being sold, re-tenanted, or lived in by it's owners. .(see attached files of my amateur attempts).
Our internal mission statement is: Whatever service we provide, for whatever market or purpose, we always create valued impressions.
I have used a 'cut of this' in my signage in the past: Creating Valued Impressions. I would consider using this (again) as positioning/strengthening/communication statement in certain marketing applications, but not in my logo.
