Web Design Review from Paula Higdon
I hired Mothershed Design for a rebranding project encompassing social media campaigns, a new website, and logo design. The outcome exceeded our expectations. Our website and logo turned out better than we could have imagined. The agency's level of organization was impressive, offering us several options to choose from and ensuring that the final products aligned perfectly with our vision. Its reliability and commitment to meeting deadlines were impressive. Working with Mothershed Design was an excellent experience. The agency made the entire process straightforward. I have no reservations in recommending Mothershed Design for any branding or marketing needs.

El and team were amazing. They took me on a journey to create my brand’s voice and message. I am delighted with the results. It was a transformative experience. The sprint concept keeps focus on the process and removes distractions. I wouldn’t do this any other way.
Rob Jackman's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Eleazar at Odd Notion was genuinely one of the best decisions we made for our business. We came in with a rough idea and he helped us transform it into a brand that truly captures how we want our clients to feel. There's no way we would have landed on what we have without his guidance. Every time I look at our branding, I feel proud and excited - and that's not something I take for granted. Eleazar isn't just a yes-man. He pushes back when it matters, gives honest direction, and has a real ability to take the wheel and steer things in the right direction. If you're looking for a creative partner who genuinely cares about getting it right, look no further than Odd Notion. Highly recommend.
Cynthia King-Guffey's Review Sourced from Google
There is so much to love about Eleazar and his creative, caring team. They inspired us. They rewired us - not only our brand identity, but also our focus, and elements of our app design - all in a few months. They then have walked alongside us as we have implemented, improved, and innovated. It has been like Christmas on repeat. Eleazar is willing to go to the mat on behalf of our product, which is a founder and creative director’s dream. We will work with his team again not because it’s easy work (it isn’t) but because Riza is the better for it. Our colors are more colorful. Our characters are warmer and bolder. Those are metaphors for a product that is stronger, more interesting and clearer in its intended mission. Thank you Eleazar, Rommel, Alexa, Greg, and Paul!

Sherry of JV Media does outstanding work. The process that we went through was quick and efficient and the website looks great, is easy for navigation and completed at the quotation price. The two way communication during the website design and coding was very clear and concise. I highly recommend JV Media.
Scott B.'s Review Sourced from Google
Our law firm has been working with JV Media Design for about 13 years. Sherry and her team helped us to develop a fantastic web site that was truly customized to our business. The website has generated a large number of good clients for us over the years and helped us grow significantly. Sherry is unique in that she is true designer and also is practical when it comes to helping businesses present themselves most favorably. She is also extremely responsive to requests/emails. Overall, we would strongly recommend JVM Design and Sherry. Really a great team to work with!
Jay Bell's Review Sourced from Google
I’m a fairly tech-savvy guy, and for the past decade, I’ve been using a web site for my business that I cobbled together using purchased themes. I’ve tried a variety of them, but they never quite did what I wanted them to. My frustration increased until I basically stopped using my site entirely. This meant the customers stopped going there too. Embarrassed of my company’s public appearance, I finally decided that it was time to bring in a professional. Sherry and the team over at JV Media Design turned out to be the perfect choice. Their reputation was stellar and the price was competitive, but I got so much more than a pretty new site. Sherry encouraged me to really start thinking about what I wanted my website to accomplish. That sounded simple enough. I wanted customers to arrive and be dazzled. What then? Did I want the flow to direct them straight to my new eCommerce store? Or was I more interested in newsletter sign ups? Which aspects of my business did I want to prioritize? Working together, we were able to come up with a new layout. My site used to be a confusing mess of options. Now it’s streamlined to get the results I want most. Best of all, it finally looks good on mobile devices, which is absolutely crucial these days. Hiring a professional also helped me save time. I used to lose days if not weeks to updating my site, when I most definitely had more pressing matters to tend to. Working with Sherry and her crew, I was still involved in the process, but all the hard work fell on their shoulders. The result? A very happy customer with a stylish new site that is seeing plenty of traffic again. I cannot recommend JV Media Design enough!

Passion for your work is a guarantee of success, and this is evident when working with Bake Agency, where creativity, quality, and attention to client needs are always top priorities. Furthermore, they were able to rank my website highly on search engines. Highly recommended. Thank you!
Luca Perini's Review Sourced from Google
L’unicità della differenza come vantaggio competitivo e strategico. Un rischio da correre e che Bake Agency corre molto volentieri nonostante i tempi tecnicamente riproducibili spesso anche in termini di soluzioni da offrire. Risposte uniche e irriproducibili come il valore, quello dei propri clienti, da tradurre in esperienze di comunicazione che fanno la differenza. Una strategia d’ascolto che si fa marketing nel re-design di una nuova consapevolezza del proprio essere sul mercato come brand responsabile della propria immagine. La capacità di riuscire affidata ad un team di professionalità affiatate e capaci di ottenere il massimo dalla propria integrazione. Tecnicamente e creativamente.
Vito Inserrato's Review Sourced from Google
When we first met Bake, we were quite wary. We thought that, after all, for 15 years we'd been doing it ourselves and had always found the ideas and skills to communicate with our clients and associates internally. Then, almost against our will, they created a new logo and a coordinated graphic design for all our publications, presentations, images, reels, and anything else we could think of. It took us no more than ten minutes to decide to adopt the new logo, despite our affection for the old one. Furthermore, without ever lecturing us, they began to explain and make us understand the effectiveness of intelligent communication through media and the web and how easy it is to throw money away without achieving results. They expertly follow us on social media and constantly monitor our results. They're always ready to create new graphics or develop new ideas. I must confess that sometimes I'm a little afraid to share even a half-baked idea, because the next day Daniele or Massimiliano send me proposals for how to implement it. To close with a metaphor, I must admit that communicating with Bake Agency's expertise today allows us to effectively reach and communicate with our potential clients, making the most of the available media. By comparison, our previous work was a bit like leaning out the window and shouting into a megaphone. A heartfelt thank you also for your patience in explaining and sometimes re-explaining what we don't understand.

Since November of last year, SCHAU & HORCH has been supporting us in the further development of our brand – and we couldn't imagine a better partner. From the very beginning, the team not only understood our industry and our company, but also engaged deeply with our values, our goals, and our strategic direction. This is evident in every step we take together. They don't create short-term solutions, but rather a brand with a clear strategy and a long-term perspective. We particularly value the honest, collaborative partnership. Ideas aren't simply implemented, but developed further together and critically examined – always with the aim of achieving the best possible result. Communication, accessibility, and reliability are consistently top-notch. As a company in the event technology sector, a professional and authentic brand presence is of paramount importance to us. SCHAU & HORCH accompanies us on this journey with a great deal of creativity, strategic expertise, and an exceptional feel for brands. We look forward to continuing our collaboration and can recommend SCHAU & HORCH to anyone who wants to not only design their brand, but also develop it sustainably.

I had an absolutely incredible experience working with David Martin Design! Dave went above and beyond to help me get my website cleaned up and perfectly optimized for my customers. Collaborating with him online was an amazing process—I could see the synergy between my ideas and his actions unfolding in real-time. His ability to take my vision as an inventor and transform it into compelling, customer-focused must-haves was truly inspiring. Thank you so much, Dave, for your exceptional dedication and expertise!
Conner Pockette's Review Sourced from Google
Collaborating with this graphic designer has been absolutely game-changing for my company. From the start, they understood what I was seeing better than I could possibly explain, and he brought it to life in a manner that exceeded all my expectations. The imagination, attention to detail, and ability to take ideas and turn them into dynamic, shiny graphics are, quite frankly, next-level. Not only is their design absolutely fantastically insane, but their communication and professionalism made the entire process stress-free and seamless. Deadlines? Always met before schedule. If you're looking for someone who's going to take your brand to the next level and make you appear legitimate, this is the designer you want. 10/10 would recommend again and again.

When you hire such a company, you're investing in a strategic asset that shapes how your business is perceived, trusted, and remembered.
First impressions are crucial, and a custom logo helps you make a lasting one.
Logos directly influence purchasing behavior, making them a critical asset to any brand.
In highly competitive markets like New York City and Los Angeles, where thousands of brands compete for attention, a professionally designed logo becomes even more important for standing out and building recognition.
According to statistics, 56% of U.S. Gen Z consumers have purchased a product because the company had an interesting logo.
A 2024 analysis of visual communication research found that visual elements drive 80-90% of initial consumer impressions.
It means your logo is often one of the first signals customers use to evaluate your business, so you need to work with experienced logo design companies to ensure a memorable logo design.
While a logo maker can be useful for quick, low-cost solutions, it often lacks the strategic thinking and customization required to build a strong, differentiated brand.
Poor or unappealing design has immediate negative consequences.
A logo created by a professional firm is designed to work within a consistent brand system.
According to Lucidpress's State of Brand Consistency Report, companies with consistent branding saw revenue increases of up to 23%, and 68% of businesses reported revenue growth of at least 10% from maintaining brand consistency.
Logo designers ensure your logo is not just a standalone asset, but part of a system that drives consistency and revenue.
A well-designed logo can last for centuries, making it one of the longest-lasting business assets you'll invest in.
Take Stella Artois as an example. The brand has used its logo since 1366.
Recognition is where logos deliver measurable value.
The Apple logo is among the most recognizable symbols in the United States, while the FedEx logo has received more than 40 design awards, reinforcing how professional logo design contributes to brand clarity and memorability.
Even logo updates can have a widespread impact.
When Pepsi invested $1 million in its latest redesign, 42% of United States consumers noticed the change, demonstrating how visible branding decisions are at scale.
Hiring a logo design company is ultimately about building a brand asset that performs.
The quality of the input heavily influences the quality of the outcome.
The more clearly you communicate your business, goals, and expectations, the more effectively an agency can translate that into a logo that performs in the market.
Providing structured, relevant information upfront also reduces revisions, shortens timelines, and improves alignment from day one.
Start with a clear explanation of what your company does and where it's going.
This context helps logo design companies create a logo that reflects not just what you do today, but where your brand is heading.
A logo should resonate with the people you want to reach, so you should share:
Setting clear expectations around budget, timeline, and decision-making directly affects project efficiency, output quality, and overall ROI.
Share your budget range with the logo designers, as it helps them determine whether to allocate basic execution resources or a full strategic team.
Research shows that companies often rebrand due to ineffective initial design, which can cost 5 to 10 times more than getting it right the first time.
You need to define how your brand should feel and be perceived.
Without these, logo design agencies may create something visually appealing but strategically misaligned.
A good logo must function across all platforms where your brand appears.
Let the agency know where the logo will be used, whether it's a website, packaging, signage, or apps. Offer information about any technical requirements, such as horizontal vs. vertical layouts, icon versions, etc.
Logos need to be scalable and versatile, considering that consistent visual presentation across channels can increase revenue by up to 23%, according to research.
While logo design companies lead creatively, your input helps guide the direction. Provide the agency with the following information:
A professional logo creation project follows a structured workflow that combines strategy, creativity, and iteration.
The logo design process begins with a structured discovery phase, where the logo design agency gathers information about your business, audience, and objectives. This includes your positioning, competitors, and long-term goals.
This stage directly impacts project success.
Research from the Project Management Institute shows that organizations waste 11.4% of their investment due to poor project performance, often driven by unclear requirements and misalignment at the start.
Before any design work begins, a serious agency takes time to understand what your logo is competing against.
Professional logo designers analyze competitors' logos, identifying patterns in your industry, and mapping where brands tend to look similar.
This step is critical because differentiation directly affects recognition.
A study published in the Journal of Marketing Research found that brands with distinctive visual identities are significantly more likely to be recognized and recalled by consumers, which increases choice likelihood in competitive environments.
Once the strategic direction is clear, designers begin translating it into visual ideas.
At this stage, logo designers typically create 2-5 distinct concepts, each representing a different way to visually position your brand. One concept might emphasize trust and stability, while another focuses on innovation or boldness.
When concepts are presented, a professional agency explains the thinking behind the visuals.
Each logo is tied back to:
You'll often see the logo applied in real-world contexts, such as on a website, product packaging, or social media, to demonstrate how it performs beyond a blank screen.
After selecting a direction, the project moves into the refinement phase.
Logo design companies improve the logo through structured feedback and iteration, across 2-3 rounds.
Adjustments may include fine-tuning typography, spacing, proportions, or color balance.
This stage is often underestimated, but it's where good logos become great.
Small refinements can significantly improve clarity, scalability, and overall perception.
Once the design is approved, the agency prepares the final deliverables, including multiple versions of the logo and file formats suitable for different uses, such as web, print, and large-scale applications.
This stage ensures that the logo designer has delivered a good logo that's visually complete and technically usable across all platforms.
To choose the right agency for your brand, follow these steps:
Ask agencies the following questions before you sign the contract:
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding logo design companies.

Professional logo designers offer the following services:
For logo-only projects, many logo design agencies charge between $2,500 and $10,000+. Some boutique agencies offer a logo package ranging from $5,000 to $20,000, often bundled with visual identity assets.
Pricing varies depending on the agency's experience:
Some agencies may also include a satisfaction guarantee or even a money-back guarantee within premium packages, especially when offering a comprehensive logo package with strategic support.
A strong portfolio should demonstrate creativity and strategic thinking, so look for the following elements when you start evaluating a logo design portfolio:
It depends on the complexity of the project, the agency's process, and the level of strategy involved.
In most cases, logo design companies can deliver first concepts within:
Some agencies may also offer unlimited revision options, which can extend timelines but improve final outcomes.
Several variables can speed up or slow down delivery:
For example, logo designers offering 3-5 initial concepts typically require more development time than those presenting just one or two directions.
Yes, it can. Businesses that have outgrown their current brand or need to stay competitive usually ask logo design companies for logo redesign and refresh.
Logo refresh includes subtle updates to typography, color, or proportions while keeping the core identity. It is typically used when you want to modernize without losing recognition. A full redesign involves a completely new visual direction, often tied to repositioning or rebranding, and is better suited for major strategic shifts
By default, the designer or a logo design agency owns the copyright to the logo until it's formally transferred to the client in a contract.
Under copyright law, the creator of the work retains ownership unless rights are explicitly assigned. To transfer ownership, agencies include a copyright assignment clause in the agreement. Top logo design companies provide full ownership upon project completion and payment, often as part of a structured logo package that may include a money-back guarantee for added assurance.
In most professional agency engagements, clients are actively involved at key stages to offer guidance and provide feedback. You'll be most involved at the beginning of the project, when you'll provide input on your business goals, target audience, competitors, and brand vision. Once the agency presents logo concepts, you'll review 2-5 design directions and share structured feedback.
After selecting a direction, you'll help refine the design. Logo design agencies will adjust typography, color, layout, and details based on your input, and you'll have the final say approving the final logo design and any variations.
