Company logo design

Any freelance grahpic designs on here that can produce company logos?

I've no idea how much this service would cost.

I run a commercial heating installation and maintenance company in London and branding is something that has been very neglected over the years.

I have a mate who does this. No idea on cost though, I'm afraid.

Do you want me to put you in touch?

Branding in not just a company logo, it's a whole science in itself.

If it's of interest I can put in in touch with the MD

This is part of what my firm offer but strictly to our own industry(s). However as a guide you are looking at £350 or so for a one-man-freelancer, which is probably the most suitable option, up to around £1200 for an agency to spend a day or two on it with some proofing.

Happy to offer guidance or input if you want - I'm a media man of some 20 years, just won't be able to do the actual design without charging you £5000 upwards!

Thanks all. I'm considering lots of different designs at the moment from other similar companies I have found on the internet to get the ball rolling before speaking with a graphic designer.

My dad started the company in 1985 and since then we have never really produced a proper logo.

I have just purchased some new company vans so want to get the logo and branding correct for the van sign writing.

The fiverr.com freelance option as above looks good. Thanks again also for some of the other options also which are of interest.

Again, happy to help if you want guidance. It's amazing how some designers will really miss obvious problems - my day job is to tell them what they've missed

Been sent 10 or so logos thus far after my initial brief. Not bad but not what I'm after. I now have a much clearer picture myself what I'm after so they are working on that. I've become obsessed when driving now looking at company logos and slogans on lorries and vans etc

I have spent hours trying to design a "perfect" logo. I am not very creative, so am influenced by other people's logo's.

I have now completely given up. I would say, keep it very simple and just have a coloured/fancy typeface with the company name. It does depend upon the industry though.
