5 Easy Steps to Creating a Logo for Your Small Business

Creating a logo for your small business is an important step in establishing your brand. It’s an image that will be used to represent your business and should reflect the values and mission of your company. TeamShirts can help you with the hard work of creating and printing branded products. But don't worry, it's not rocket science...unless your business happens to be a rocket company! Here is a simple process for coming up with a logo:

1. Brainstorm

Start by thinking of ideas that represent your business. Think of themes, colors, and shapes that capture the essence of your company. For example, if you're a yoga studio, you might brainstorm ideas like lotus flowers, green and blue colors, and a peaceful-looking font.

2. Research

?Look at other logos and designs that have been used in your industry. Or browse TeamShirt's gallery of 1000s of designs and fonts. This will help you narrow down your options while still creating something unique.

3. Sketch

Draw out a few of your ideas. Try different variations to see which ones you like best. If you aren't artistic, you might need professional help. TeamShirts offers free professional graphic design services for orders of 5 or more items. If you have any special wishes or ideas, we’ll create them for you.

4. Refine

Select the design you like best and refine the details. Try different color schemes and fonts until you’re happy with the look. Upload your logo design to TeamShirts' easy-to-use design wizard, and choose a product. This will help you visualize your logo's appearance on your desired products. And if you're unhappy with the look, you can always start over again and try something new!?

5. Test?

Show your logo to colleagues and people you trust to get their feedback. Use our handy “Poll” feature before checking out to let your team vote on the logo they like best. This will help you make sure you’ve created something that resonates with your target audience.

Once you’ve created a logo you’re proud of, you can use it on custom apparel, and promotional materials. With TeamShirts you can create custom logo t-shirts, hoodies, and more in a variety of colors, sizes, and fits. After all, nothing says success like having your logo plastered all over your clothes. Your logo will become a key part of your brand and help you to stand out from your competitors.
