Standard of ValueLogo Design Contest

Thank you for participating in my logo design. This is the first of two designs that I will need ... the second is for a related business.

BTW - I am currently driving around the US in a Winnebago with my wife and two dogs. While I understand the importance of feedback, it is likely that most of my comments will come at the end of the day. For the duration of this contest, I will be in the United States Central Time Zone.

Having reviewed a few entries thus far, let me give you something else to think about. In the field of business valuation, "standard of value" is something that all else is measured against. Think what the "gold standard" means to people in business and finance. SOV is a yardstick or measuring stick that tells the reader of a business valuation report the single most important assumption upon which the value of a business is based.

I have started moving entries into the non-interesting column - NOT because I don't like them, but because I am trying to narrow down the ones that are still in the running. Do not take offense if you are in this column - I am just trying to move some entries out of the first column!

Hi! 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 are going to 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 designers hard work.
~~ Designers earn points for designs ranked in the top 10. We like to earn points.

~~ NOTE: While in JUDGING mode, the designer ranked in 1st can still submit revisions.
