Wow, thanks guys ~ it's cool to see this come to life!! The chess piece is interesting ~ definitely something I haven't thought of! I think I like it,... let me sit with it for a little while. For now #2 is my favorite. I can't wait to see what all you wonderful creative people have in store for this brand! Thank you!!

I just uploaded an AI file for you all... it's got the colors I've been using in my branding along with the flower that it also used in my company's brand: Motive Marketing Group. We don't HAVE to use it, but I wanted to put it out there in case it inspires greatness. One of my brand challenges is to determine if/how I tie "Strategy Girl" (my public persona) to Motive Marketing Group (my marketing consulting company). Thoughts?
Thanks

Thanks Melisari ~ interesting logos! I like the idea of the avatar/superhero (#4)... I do run around town with my MacBook pro! Can you give me one that's less "corporate" (Austin is a very alternative / creative community and although I consider myself fashionable and fashion-forward, I rarely wear business suits... perhaps just a pencil skirt with a blouse or sweater or something.) Could you also give me a version where she's just standing there looking smart/powerful? Maybe with a "S" or an "SG" on her chest? Or maybe one that's just an avatar of my head shot. (See: www.twitter.com/strategygirl) Just some ideas. Thanks.

I think #5 is interesting but the person running up the stairs looks obese. =) Since I work in the fitness industry, might be better to look strong and lean. Thanks for your efforts!

Hi Guys ~ thanks to all of your for your wonderful ideas! They're all so different and so wonderful. This is going to be a hard decision!!

I wanted to give you the color formulas from the artwork I've been using so far to create this brand. I'm certainly open to tweaking the color palette, but I at least wanted to give you all a place to start. I'm not a designer and I know nothing about color theory so take this for what it is and work your magic. Thank you!
