i liked number 4

had to edit. I liked number for but feel it needs the success you can measure slogan put in somewhere

 

[myroundbox]

The first 2 remind me of Frankie and Bennys. I like 5, its the most professional looking out of them.

 

[Richie N]

2 or 5 for me

 

[Martin P]

3 but that's because i'm a fan of caps

 

[.Spiralling.]

5 for me - more professional looking

 

[Fernhurst Solutions Ltd]

I voted for option 1 ... something a different, which is what you sometimes need in marketing (imo anyway)

 

[jamesy boy]

i think it depends on who your audience are to be honest to accuratley predict which is best.


I had the same problem with my business and after 15 logos we made a tricky decision to choose one based on the most votes from the demographic we were targeting and the image we were trying to portray of our company.

Our company targets 90% guys so effectively the votes from girls were only were 10% the overall score.


Hope that helps

Based on Option 4: I would put the 'stamped' effect of 'fully booked' over the word 'marketing'. (Like 'Sold' goes over 'For Sale').

 

[pchonour]

2 for me because; more professional looking

 

[ginantonic]

Definitely number 5, looks more professional. Hate the font on the cursive ones, sorry! Looks like a child's written it.

 

[mycateringjobsdotcom]

Thanks everyone, keep the votes coming. Its evenly spread at the moment.

 

[James W]

Option 5. More professional.

I also prefer No.5, however I think it would would look better with the "FULLY BOOKED" text in the heavier font used in NO.3, as the bottom bar looks too heavy in proportion to the font used.

Hi before I comment can I ask what the business will be targeting as its clearly a departure away from what you currently do?
I actually like number 5 but it really depends what the exact business proposition and USP are.

 

[MyAccountantOnline]

Looks like I'm on my own on this but I thought 6 was best - hard choice though I think they all look very good.

 

[.Spiralling.]

I still think #5 is best, although looking again, I like #3 too. It looked familiar to me though and after searching through what's left of my mind, I realised it reminded me of the Total Publishing logo of the 90s (no idea what their logo is now).

Sorry, the logo is for a new business which will help independent restaurants with their marketing.

keep the votes coming

Out of all option 5 is your best effort but there is no kerning of the text and this gives it a feel of being unprofessional and home made.

With all the time you have spent on this you would have had a better result and probably cheaper too using a professional designer

[dare]

I like No 1 although No 5 is bit professional

 

[Monica_ChilliApple]

Hi,

I liked Option 6

 

[Dot Design]

mmm, the red and black colour palette don't work for me, its quite eighties, I think your designer could do alot better the first few with the curly font are straight out of the window.

Is there anyway of getting an idea into the design, sometime that would set you apart and that could continue into your branding/visual identity? You say that...

the logo is for a new business which will help independent restaurants with their marketing.

so could there be an element of this in there, even if it was slight. just that in my opinion it could be any type of company, it suggests a ticket agency or seller to me at the moment.

Just my professional opinion though!

 

[David S]

I think option 3 is professional, and for me is very appealing. Unless you are settled on your motto, I may be able to offer some alternatives. If you dont like them you dont have to use them.

 

[David S]

For some reason I cant PM, might be because I'm a new user.


These are just a few options I have put together, I actually really like the first best.
1. Preparing Your Success - preparing – getting food ready, quite catchy
2. Seasoned for success
3. We know the score – score refers to marks that are made with a knife when preparing food, which I’m sure restaurateurs will pick up on.

Simon

I'm with Simon on this one - you got some good advice from branding and design experts a couple of weeks back - whilst some of these look better at face value - from a professional design perspective, they don't stand up.

 

[Mattonella Tile Studio]

1, 4 or 5 would be where I'd go.

I don't like 2 or 6.

3 is ok, but not 1,4 or 5

 

[FelixSilver]

Option 5 is the best effort.
Option 4 would be Ok if the 'booked' was capitalised.

An improvement on the logo could be to have an icon or image (to the left of the text) representing the business, for example a clipboard with a list of ticks.

I voted for 5 myself, but Simon made a valid point about the text needing kerning.

You could try number 5 with the "fully booked" in lower case, if you don't know how to do this.

 

[Timmo88]

I like 4 and 5.

 

[David S]

I would consider presenting the most favoured options to some businesses you have good relationships. Its about what appeals to restauranteurs.

 

[Ebrissa]

option 5 looks the most proff imo

 

[sjt]

no.s 2&6 look like a big company's logo - can't put my finger on which.... Possibly Holiday Inn?
