Good Name ConsultingLogo Design Contest

Your reputation precedes you.

UPDTAE 2: I added a slogan. If you think you can integrate it with the logo in a clean manner, please do so. The company is based upon this quote by Socrates:
The way to a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear.
- Socrates

UPDATE: please avoid using “GNC” as these are the initials for a health supplement store in North America. Additionally, this consulting firm is focused on digital advertising and technology, so if anyone can incorporate some symbolism for that, your logo will be highly considered. Thanks

I need a new logo for a consulting business called Good Name Consulting Corp. It is a Consulting company that will help Startup ad tech companies gain a reputation and grow via sales and marketing.

The target audience is small, brand new advertising and technology companies that need assistance generating awareness and selling their product.

I would like something clean looking, with masculine colors like navy blue, black, white.

The inspiration for the logo is the following quote:

Regard your good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of -- for credit is like fire; when once you have kindled it you may easily preserve it, but if you once extinguish it, you will find it an arduous task to rekindle it again. The way to a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear. -Socrates

Blue, Black, White, Grey (or any combination)

Partnership / handshake is one way
maybe something around Socrates /ancient Greece
The company does sales consulting, so visuals around success and upward trends are important
