Dennis...thank you for the quick response and additional submissions. I like it a little more, but it's still sort of plain to me. Here is a logo for inspiration. I think the target is too big now, and I would prefer if you would condense the words a bit closer together (which will be easier if you make the target smaller).
Here is a recent logo I saw that I liked (big cap letters, unique fonts).
Also, I'd like to try to find a small font for career strategy group that is NON scripty and see if I like it. If you make it all closer together, maybe that will help.
Instead of waiting for my feedback, any chance you can start sending some other options based on your own fabulous history of designing? You can go back and read my brief if necessary. Thank you. Laura
I'm not sure where to go with on this for now. I'm really looking for your CREATIVITY now.
I feel like there has to be more to the design than this. The letters Aspire Empower have no depth to them. Isn't there something that can be done? Shadowing? Or outlining them in white? or something??? I know you are incedibly talented, but I am left feeling so BLAH about all of these. Can you try an emblem or symbol or something instead of the O for target? I know I'm probably the biggest pain in the butt, but it's just not making me excited.
I do really like the letters going across the bottom as in logo #257...looks very corporate..definitely like it.
Would you like for me to send you a bunch of designs that I like? Would that be helpful?
It doesn't have to be exact (in fact, it can't be because I don't want you to copy it), but it's similar to what I do (connecting others, networking), and I like it more than the target. If you can create something similar, and do something with more depth to the letters ASPIRE! EMPOWER!, I think we may have something!
