Logo Design Brief

We need a logo for a new company that offers fully managed offsite backup solutions for small business (like architects, lawyers, engineers, nonprofits, tech companies, online businesses, or any small business that relies on their data to get work done). Our goal is to provide reliable backup protection that goes beyond the self-service cheap online backup services (carbonite, backblaze, mozy, ibackup).

Our services that standout:

- free remote installation service
- free hard drive seeding (we send a drive to backup your data to so you don't use all your bandwidth for a week)
- guaranteed 48 hour data restoration by free overnight shipped hard drive (it can take 24 hours to copy data to drive and another 24 hrs for delivery). Individual files and folders can be restored immediately online as fast as your internet connection can download.

Very Simple Pricing Structure:

$10/month Account Fee
$10/month for each Device (server, desktop, laptop, etc)
$10/month for every 100GB of Data (data is shared across all your devices)
{the minimum monthly fee is $30/month}

The domain name we have is: 48backup.com
The name focuses on our promise to get your business data back to you within 48 hours.

It would be great if the logo could deliver this message:
48backup (primary)
managed offsite backup (secondary)
48 hour guarantee (tertiary)

"managed" implies that one of our employees helps to make sure they are backing up all the data they need and that our software is installed correctly. This is done during the free remote installation process.

"guaranteed" speaks to our promise to get them back to work ASAP - often faster than they can get a new computer setup and running.


As for colors, we don't have any planned so you can do anything you like.

It would be great if the logo would work on a white and black background (though white or light color is definitely the more important). I mention black because there is a theme that we found and kind of like: http://pixelgrapes.com/demo/sublime/ The logo in this theme is on black but we can probably modify the theme or find another. White is definitely more important.

Thanks! We look forward to working with you.

PS. We are based in USA (New York City area) and our services initially will only be offered to US clients.

!!! IMPORTANT !!!!
PPS. Please no generic shapes like arrows, arcs, swooshes, or common font faces. If it only takes you 5 minutes to create the logo, then you aren't getting the job. Please put some thought into. Please read: http://justcreative.com/2010/08/24/logo-design-mistakes/

PPPS. I attached a logo that I like of a competitor.

Target Market(s)

Small to medium sized businesses. Often professional organizations who rely on their data to work everyday. A small business who could afford $30 to $100 month in data protection to prevent a week's loss of productivity (traditional online backup solutions can take weeks to restore their data).
