Over the past few years we’ve worked with multiple businesses, like yours, to create their brand’s identity.
During the exploration phase we often have our clients fill a questionnaire to establish a foundation of understanding.
Answers to this logo design questionnaire helps us figure out what you want and need from a finished design.
We will usually go through the questions below over a phone call or physical meeting but like our clients to read through them (and if possible answer them here) to get your thoughts rolling before the meeting.
The questions have been segmented into four sections to simplify the process.
Please read through them carefully.
OUR BRAND IDENTITY QUESTIONNAIRE
A. About the Brand
In this section, we want you to think about your brand and the direction you would like to take it. Explain your company’s goals, brand values, and attributes. These will help us gain a good sense of how the directions we can go through to represent your brand.
We take understanding your project seriously, and this section provides more details about your brand and values.
