Rand Thompson ConsultantsLogo Design Contest

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

~~ Rank designs daily -- this will encourage participation.
~~ Rank and re-rank a variety of designs to get a variety of new entries.
~~ Ranking gets your contest noticed! Unless your contest is Private, 1st place entries are posted to the portfolio page: https://logotournament.com/portfolio
~~ Ranking designs daily will also keep your contest from getting cluttered.
~~ The more feedback you provide, the better results you will see.
~~ Designers are not offended by "Not Interested".
~~ Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.
~~ Ranking is a non-monetary means of showing appreciation for the Designers' hard work.
~~ Designers earn points for ranked designs. We like to earn points.

#1: I really like the idea of a name emblem. Can we try a couple of different presentations? First, can we try moving the R to the left of the T so that it reads more RT than TR? Also, can we try making the R blue and the T grey? And, finally, can you try adding the C to the emblem?

#2 and #3: I love the tie. It's funny and whimsical and we definitely want to convey that. Can you try putting some different options of borders on these? Also, can we try playing with different colors? And, finally, I think I prefer it with the tie clip.

Thanks so much, designers. We're very excited about all the different options.

Thank you for making those adjustments. Although some of the Rand Thompson team love the tie, others believe that it may be too geared towards men and that it may not convey the message of what we do. We also may have steered you a little astray with the word "fun". I guess you could say that our idea of "fun" is more creative, abstract, out-of-the-box thinking.

We want to tell you a little more about who we are and what we do to give you a better idea as you move forward...

We work with high-powered executives on career placement from both sides. In other words, we find jobs for those professionals seeking employment, but we also search on behalf of those large institutions for potential job candidates. This places us at the hub of career information.

Our clients are large financial institutions, such as banks and hedge funds, that are looking for a thought partner to present ideas of who they could bring in to build a strong team. These businesses look to us to match the right people with the right position. They look to us to know their businesses and know the people who would be good additions to those businesses. We want to convey confidence, professionalism and strength while also showing that we are creative thinkers.

We hope this helps as you all go forward. Thanks again for the wonderful ideas thus far. We look forward to seeing what else you come up with.

#7: Really great, but we have the same issue with this one as we did with #1: The 'T' is on the left of the 'R' and we would like the 'R' to be placed left of the 'T' to read RT (Rand Thompson), not TR (Thompson Rand). Also, can we see a version with a 'C' (for Rand Thompson Consultants)?

Designers,

Can we also see options with a globe or an arc/bridge? Something to convey that we connect people.

Thanks!

Contest has been extended. Key decision maker away until next week.
