Partners Financial Services, Inc.Logo Design Contest

Example #1: I'm not particularly fond of the "cellphone" tower stepping blocks. I would like to incorporate more navy blue over the green. I also am not liking the green lines around "Your success is our success". They seem more medical geared than financial. We are also Partners Financial Services, Inc. and not LLC.

Thank you for your quick response.
PFS

Example #2 & #3: I really like the separation of the logo and company name & font choices. I'm not particularly fond of the "cellphone" tower stepping blocks. I would like to incorporate more navy blue over the green. I would like the green to be more of a highlight. I'm also not liking the green line to the right of "Your success is our success". That seems to be more medical geared than financial focused. We are also Partners Financial Services, Inc. and not LLC.

Thank you for your quick responses.
PFS

Example #4: Could you give me some more examples or ideas of what you can do with the logo. I like the separation of the company name and logo as well as the font choices of the right side of the logos presented. Some of my colleagues are not fond of the green/blue circle.

To all artists - Please see the uploaded picture of the handshake. Our image has always been a strong handshake and I would greatly appreciate feedback and creative ways to incorporate that.

#5 - We're liking this more but the line blip next to Your success is our success is still to medical and not financial. We are not an LLC. We are an Inc.

#6 - We're liking this more but the line blip next to Your success is our success is still to medical and not financial. We are not an LLC. We are an Inc. We really like the font choice on the right side of this logo but it does not match the logo picture. It has to have a coherent feel to it and mismatching fonts does not give us the feel we're looking for.

#7: Do you have anything else you could show us other than the blue circle?

To all artists - Could you gear the colors to a lighter green/yellow and more of a navy blue instead of royal blue? Could you also provide some logos with and without the motto?

Thanks,
PFS

Hello! Here are some hints for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses:

~~ You, the Client, are very important! Your active participation is the single greatest factor influencing this contest. Active participation by you, the Client, helps you get the logo design you want!
~~ What's active participation? It's updating the brief with more information for Designers to work with as the contest progresses, providing feedback to Designers on their entries when they're submitted, and ranking designs at least once a day.
~~ When you provide feedback to Designers, you increase the chances of getting the logo you want. More feedback = better results!
~~ Leave private feedback by clicking on a design. Feedback will be made public upon contest completion.
~~ Rank designs at least once each day -- this will encourage Designers to submit more entries!
~~ Ranking prevents your contest from going idle! Active contests attract more Designers.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed. Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Please note: if you're asking for a design that will require several hours to create, to attract Designers willing to invest that amount of time the prize should be at least $400-$500. All "Character" style logos fall into this category.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested." We'd like to know what you don't want so we can give you the design you do want.
~~ The first phase of the contest is the "Open" phase, and everyone can submit during that time.
~~ After your contest's initial "Open" phase closes, it will enter the "Top 5" phase; only the top 5 ranked Designers will be able to submit revisions at that time.
~~ The "Top 5" Designers are the first 5 Designers in a contest, not the first 5 designs.
~~ When "Top 5" ends, the "Judging" phase begins. The Designer of the 1st place design will be the only Designer who can submit revisions at that time.

So far #19, #12 & #18 are in the lead. We really like the cleanliness of those designs. We are still looking for someone to WOW us with a handshake inspired winner. We are looking for a sleek, clean, imaginative take on a Handshake.The colors in the top three designs are looking great. Those are the colors we are looking for.

#51 - Thank you for an inspired interpretation of a handshake. Could you possibly provide the same design with darker/richer color & an underline under "Services, Inc." to add separation between the motto and company name? Could we also see one corrected version with the right side font in black & another one in blue?

Thank you,
PFS

#52 - Thank you for an interesting interpretation of a handshake. Could you possibly provide the same design with an underline under "Services, Inc." to add separation between the motto and company name?

Thank you,
PFS

#39 - Our team really enjoys this logo design. It allows for great name recognition with the PFS. We were wondering if you could provide us with the same logo with a handshake of some kind in the lower right hand box instead of the "cell tower" bars and check mark. If you were able to do something like that and make it look good you would definitely be a top 5 contender.

Thank you,
PFS

#43 - Could you provide the same logo with deeper/richer blues and greens and the change the Company name & Underline to black? We would be interested in seeing if that would make the logo cleaner in appearance. Could you also provide the same logo with the silver ring fading from green to blue from left to right?

Thank you,
PFS

#31 - Could you please provide the same logo with deeper/richer blues and greens?

Thank you,
PFS

#7 Could you please provide the same logo with "Inc." instead of "LLC". Remove the line before "Your success is our success" & underline "Services, Inc.". Could we also see a one corrected version with the right side font in black & another one in the blue?

Thank you,
PFS

#62 & #61 - Both of these remind me a lot of the alarm/security companies we currently do business with & I do not feel the shield portrays what we do as a company.

#63 - This logo was not posted prior to our meeting this morning. That is why it was not included in the recent ranking. I can give you some feedback on trends that I'm noticing with management before our afternoon meeting though. The handshake will score extra points with the design. It may be a little to literal of an interpretation though. The font choices are great and underlining of the name provides good separation of name and motto. I will update this again if this logo is ranked by my management staff this afternoon.

TO ALL ARTISTS -

Please stay away from using trees in the logo design. In our industry there are many companies that currently use trees in their logo and we do not want our new logo to be white noise.

Thank you,
PFS

# 70 - We did not feel a connection between our company and the logo choice. It's nice, modern and a cool design but it did not feel like something we could use.

#71 - We did not feel the connection between your logo and our company.

#69 - I like this logo. It is very clean and modern. I also feel as if it is two pieces coming together to make a whole like our handshake. I will take this to my management for input and respond with more input after I speak with management.

Thank you for your suggestions,
PFS

#72 - This logo is a bit to blocky and we feel that it does not match the clean image we would like as much as your entry #68 which we are quite fond of.

TO ALL ARTISTS -

Today we narrowed it down to the current top 5 and ranked them in the order of most liked by management. I'm hoping to get many more inspired creations to create some active competition against the current top 5 in the next few days! If you were not chosen to be in the current top 5 it was because we did not connect with your individual logo concept at this time. That is we did not connect with the overall concept and not colors or anything that we know could be changed within the current design that was put forward.

There is still plenty of room to squeeze your way into the top 5 spots. I'm still waiting on revisions for #51, #39, #43 & #18. If you can come up with something better I'll be happy to bump you up in the rankings.

We're still looking for deep greens, blues and blacks combine with an inspired interpretation of a handshake, our company name, motto and possibly initials if you can make it work with the design and still make it look good.

Thank you all for your hard work so far. I look forward to reviewing and giving more feedback over the next couple of days!

Thank you,
PFS

#103 & #102 - Thank you for your logo entries, but they remind us more of an oceanic themed design. We clearly see the handshaking individuals but we think that is because we are looking for it in the designs. We are not sure if others will see what we see.

Thanks,
PFS

#104 & #105 - Thank you for your logo submissions. We don't feel a personal connection as a company with these logo designs. They are esthetically pleasing but they are not our company. They gave us the impression of a moon more than a handshake.

Thank you,
PFS

#99 - I like this design and will move it up to a ranked entry. I really have not critiques on it at this time. My management will decide if they like it or not during our meeting.

#100 - The two people shaking hands are a bit broken up. It does not have the flowing design we are looking for.

#101 - This is a very simple and clean handshake. My management team has moved away from literal interpretations of the handshake so far, but I'm going to move it up in the rankings to be judged at our meeting today.

#39 - We very much like this entry. It is clean, professional and will look great on letter head. We would like to see the bottom right hand box in the design changed to a handshake or interpretation of a handshake. If you can make that work and look good I think you may have a winner.

Thanks,
PFS

#43 - Could you provide the same logo with deeper/richer blues and greens and the change the Company name & Underline to black? We would be interested in seeing if that would make the logo cleaner in appearance. Could you also provide the same logo with the silver ring fading from green to blue from left to right? We really like this logo and would like to see these changes.

#89 & #90 - We are not visually attracted to the "V" shapes.

#88 & #87 - Could you see if you could work "PFS" into the people shaking hands?

#85 & #86 - These logo designs make us think of a dance academy and do feel that they fit our company.

#84 - This logo is interesting to me. I would like to take it back to my managers to see how they feel about it. I will let you know.

#83 - We are not fond of the swirling shape that they two individuals make in the design.

Thank you for your entries,
PFS

#78 - We like the design, but we do not like it as much as #74, #75 or #51.

#79 - We are not fond of the logo leaning the direction it is. We like 74, 75 and 51 over this.

#76 - I'm fond of this but some of my colleagues think it looks to much like a flower. I'm going to take this to our management meeting and will re-rank it later.

#77 - I appreciate your interpretation of a handshake, but this design feels a bit dated.

#82 - This logo reminds us of a very famous painting and we don't want to be that close. We are also not fond of the "chat" bubble look of it.

#80 & #81 - I like both of these, but I like the colors in 81 more than 80. I will take 81 to my management meeting for review.

Thank you for your logos so far,
PFS
