Consulting
Color Preferences
Navy Blue, Orange (bright or "warm" bright) are the two main colors.

A light tan (type) color (to be used as a background of marketing materials and website behind the verbiage. It'd be sweet to have this be a very light, almost watermarked, old world map (think pirate or treasure map)! This can be incorporated into the logo if you see fit.
Our Ideas & Additional Information
I'd like the logo to be able to be used in three (3) ways. 1) Full color detailed. 2) A simple, but full color, version (modern'esque) . 3) A simple black and white (or 2 color) version that can be printed or embroidered as small as 2 inches! THANK YOU!!! I'm SO excited for your help! I've lots of other plans and websites currently, this is my first time on 'Tournament, and there is a bunch of work available in the near future! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I'm now feeling the "iPhone button" or RSS Feed type for the Anchor. Use of a nautical star or compass rose (or a part thereof) is a plus

Let's try IT LIKE THIS: S.E.C.U.R.E.
and coaching smaller than S.E.C.U.R.E. and probably in a much different font than secure, maybe even a hand writing???

I'm digging the #14 & 15 button logo element, Can it be combined with the # 2 one for a larger/simpler look? I don't know exactly what I'm asking here, though I am really feelin' the #15 button

THANKS!

The positioning of the button in #13 looks great, Thanks

We like the font used in #34-37, and we also like how the two words are side by side. However, we'd like to see the word SECURE in all caps, with the dots in between the ackronym being smaller than the size of the letters themselves (so the dots are not overbearing). We'd also like to see the word "S.E.C.U.R.E." in the gold/orange tone, while the word "coaching" (in all lower case, and somewhat stretched a bit, with character spacing) is in the navy blue color. This is because "S.E.C.U.R.E." is an ackronym that most people will not immediately know, until they read/learn more. But we want the word, "coaching" to stand out and be more pronounced, since this is the crux of the business. Secure is essentially an adjective, but we do not want "coaching" to be lost, but rather a promiment piece of the logo. Finally, we will not be using either the "grounded guidance" tagline (at least not incoporated into the logo), nor the secure ackronym/mission statement...this logo will be purely the "button" / image to the left, with the two words "S.E.C.U.R.E. coaching" at the right. We love the button in #23 et. al., and we also like the modern look & feel of the font in #s 34-37. We are interested to see what others come up with.

Let's try this a couple of different ways - either the word "secure" or "coaching" is modern font, while the other one is more hand-written / scripty (but not to the point that it isn't clean, legible script that can also be embroidered or read from far away, etc.) Just some kind of contrast in the type of font between the first and second words. Please bear in mind, again, that "secure" is already pronounced because it's an all-caps ackronym, whereas "coaching" needs to stand out in order to quickly and easily illustrate that it is the star of the logo; the business is built around this alone. Does that make sense?

Thank you,
Charles (and Kelley)

I like #44. Nice work, everyone - it's interesting to see the difference that a few slight changes make. The font on #44 on both words is nice.

Thanks guys, This is getting very cool!

The font of "S.E.C.U.R.E.:" in #45 is great (or getting very close), and the font used in "Coaching" from #47 we're liking. Let's try "coaching" with and w/o a capital C, and make the words (stacked or not) in the logo the same height as the circle element (with layouts similar to these configurations like #45, #19, & 17)

We're digging the modernism of #35 & 37, but it hasn't quite hit it on the head. Please keep it up.

We're excited, loving the progress, and have no doubt we'll get the perfect logo very soon!

Here's to the day you desire, Charles & Kelley

Boy, we're getting close, THANK YOU! Let's take #44 or #47 and:

"secure" in same font as "coaching" from #13 and in a grey color. (going easy on/sizing down the periods of the acronym)

"coaching" in all lower case, in a clean font (still blue) not quite as scripty as #47, though can still be a handwriting or architect type of font

Goal is to feel modern/cutting edge

Slightly reduce the size of the button, only by 5-15%

Lets try all the above, with four (or more) different types of fonts for the word "coaching"

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, This is a rad process and we're really excited! Charles & Kelley

The Colardo font in #270,, #199, and #149 would be neat to see similar (or same) for "coaching"

THANKS

This post was used on a different competition to highlight some rules of the LT (previously posted by Dazzle - Moderator for LT)

How are you doing ? hope you are doing great. As this contest is about to come to an end, and you will be choosing the best new logo for your company, i just wanted to have your attention to some important point that you might be aware of or might not. I hope i am not miss understood by pointing out this to you and that you understand.

When the contest ends and you have made your mind and decision about the winner logo, the winner gets the 1st place, but the 2nd and 3rd place and going on forward, 4th, 5th, 6th , etc , each one or slot should be filled with a separate designer and different concept you found second best, third best to follow etc.

This helps towards us designers ranking and also it is a way from you to show your appreciation to the hard effort and trails put from the beginning by one designer or appreciating a nice design concept put earlier by a designer that led to developing on right direction for others and you getting the best you could at the end.

It feels frustrating for other designers and pointless of giving all the top rankings for same winner designer, while those were just a small variations of the winning design and therefore the other places 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc are not filled with different designs from a different designer.

So i hope you understood my point i was just trying to point out to you here and all the best of luck in choosing your winner logo, there are really good ones out there.

Best Regards,

Kareem "
