Would you pay a mobile app designer with a percentage of profits in the future if you don't have the cash to pay upfront?

After 40 years managing designers, I have a diferent point of view. First class designers are not gamblers. I do not know any reliable designer that will accept a risk condition and sustain the drive to commit himself aoo%. Do not make such an error. Invest in design and your start up will give your expected future profit. If you want to discuss my view, do not hesitate to call me. My site www;marcarbranding.com

When it comes to Naming an existing business we have to be more right to the point. No BS. My recomendation to you is keep alive the DNA of your current name and revitalize it. How to do it? Alternative 1. Hire a Naming professional, someone with an impressing and relevant portfolio. Alternative 2, Create yourself a new name: "scramble" your current name, combining letters and silabes. In hours you will get several name possibilities, hundreds. Make a first selection,Ccheck the legal and domain names, Check the linguistics in all your future markests idioms. When you have the 10 possible candidates get my consultancy for a profisional evaluation. Then, take a firm decision. The dame is over. Les jeux sont faites. Go ahead, you got a new KODAK brandname!. Enjoy !

Branding & Identity

Is it ok from a brand perspective to have different color schemes for your logo for different purposes?


Marco Rezende

Naming/Brand Identity. Focus on Brazil

BRANDING IS NO A BLACK AND WHITE FIELD. iT IS ART AND SCIENCE. You need experience, as I have after more than 30 years serving small to large brands The idea of a fixed color for a logo is valid for medium or large size corporations. A start up may be smart and client focused. The logo color is an instrument to talk to the customer heart. As long as it is consistent and planned in advance, a logo may have a color palette (an expessive one) and use it according to diferent audience. There is exempoles of Fortune 500s logo that follows such policy, for exemple: Apple, Citi, Coca Cola, Yahoo, Googlr. This is what I call the Camaleon Law. In America, use red and blue, in Brasil, yellow and green, and so on. I will be very happy to give you insight about how to build an effective brand identity. Marco Rezende
