Logo Design Brief
We are a tax company focused on helping people improve their financial life. Attached is the logo of one of my alliance partners. I'd like it to be complimentary, however, I want a palm tree as the letter "i" or other creative integration using a palm tree.
We will be competing with these. please look at hteir logos.
