Thank you very much for your design submission. Honestly, your logo was the first to jump out at me as the most relevant. Having said that, I fear while they are professors and we focus on furthering education we worry we might be a little too collegiate. I can't honestly say how I would change it as I like the cap on the dollar sign but if you are interested in continuing down this road with us, we would love to see a couple of options around this design that might give us a little more leeway. I hope this is helpful and we thank you for your efforts. I look forward to your future designs.
As you can see, you are in the top five of our design ranking. We chose the top five based on the designs but also the quality work of the designer.
Thank you for your explanation of the circle. Some of the comments we received from a focus group was they were not sure if the circle was a bucket of money, black hole or a coin. Any design clarity on that would be great to see.
Also, could you put a placeholder for a tagline and the tm mark in this next round?
Thank you so very much for all of your wonderful logos. We appreciate your efforts and have had your logos in our top 3 throughout this process. After focus group feedback, we had to decide on the logo that spoke to the majority of our target audience.
We wish you the best and appreciate all of your great work.
