If you are starting your own brand one thing that you would want is a logo for your company; it is a design that will become the face of your brand and will represent you everywhere.

Now getting a logo designed according to your preference and requirements is not an easy job there are certain hurdles and criteria to get your brand a customized logo.

And here the people who play the most important role are the graphic designers, they are the people who can either make your identity or can break your identity.

Now a common question that comes in your mind is how to find a graphic designer. When looking for designers the biggest mistake that brands make is that they only search for the best, however, what they should search for are designers who are in close vicinity.

Usually, the most common platform used to search for graphic designers is Google and new brand owner search for ‘best logo designs’, however, instead they should search for ‘custom logo design near me’, this way with the help of your location Google will filter out all those options which will be suitable for your brand.

Hence, when you search ‘custom logo design near me’ you will see a lot of options, which will confuse you because now another important question that arises is how to select the best graphic designer from the options available. The answer to this question is simple, start scrolling down the list, shortlist three to four graphic designers that you think will be good for you.

Moving forward, the next step after you have shortlisted some of the designers will be to contact them. Try out numbers or email addresses mentioned on the websites, fix a meeting with them and go and meet them one by one. Also, make sure you ask them to bring their portfolios along with them.

When you meet them try to get an idea of how creative the designers can be. While having a conversation with them try to observe if they are creative enough to think out of the box, are they daring enough to take risks and explore new ideas? This is an important step because one should not completely rely on the portfolios.

Now, that you have an idea and if you feel that the graphic designer is competent enough to design a logo for your brand take the conservation forward and discuss payment and other details.

Always try to have clear conversations, tell them what you want from them, and ask them what they would require from you, their service charges, and duration for the project; also another important thing that should be made clear during the initial stages is that the designer will not make a concrete decision on his/her own. It should be mandatory for them to discuss their ideas with you before finalizing anything.

What usually happens is that the graphic designers go ahead without taking the brand owners' feedback, they decide on the design, color and everything by themselves without involving the input of their client.

The last step is to finalize everything; preferably it should be in a written form in order to avoid any unforeseen situation arising later on. Things like charges, duration should be clearly mentioned in the contract and it is also advisable to mention that the designer will give you legal rights of the design because a lot of times these designers sell one company’s design to another so just to be on the safe side mention this clause in the contract as well.

After the contract has been signed do not think that the responsibility at your end is finished you should constantly check the progress with the designer and give feedback at all levels so that the final product turns out good.

If you have a competent designer half the battle is won there and 90% chances are that your logo will be an amazing piece of design and will impact your business positively.
