Digital Marketing Review from Peter Bronsnick
Splendor has been an amazing partner. Their creativity, conceptual design and execution have been instrumental in bringing our properties to market and are a key factor driving the success of our efforts.
Digital Marketing Review from Eric Millard
When assisting us in rebranding our company and redesigning our website, Splendor invested significant time in really getting to understand our business and its nuances, what makes us unique, and what our value proposition is. The results were fantastic – clear and accurate messaging, excellent design, and a foundation. CS Energy’s revenues increased 20% in the year after our rebrand and we have recently been recognized as one of the nation’s top 10 companies in our industry. We attribute much of our recent success, particularly in attracting and retaining new customers, to Splendor’s great work.

steve drizos's Review Sourced from Google
I had the pleasure of meeting with Jeff Swartz recently, and I couldn't be more impressed with Ethic’s level of professionalism and dedication to their clients. From the moment I reached out to them, I knew I was in good hands.What sets Ethic Advertising apart is their genuine willingness to listen and understand the unique needs of your business. They don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions; instead, they take the time to customize their marketing strategies to perfectly fit your goals and objectives.I highly recommend Ethic Advertising for your marketing needs. Their stellar reputation is well-deserved, and I look forward to our partnership in the future.
Greg Leach's Review Sourced from Google
We talked to numerous marketing firms across the US and most were either inept or wouldn’t talk to us because we’re a startup.When I initially contacted Ethic, I was so used to having a bad experience with other marketing firms, I bluntly said “we’re a startup that needs a lot of help with brand recognition, but we’re on a very limited budget. Can you help?”. The owner Jeff said “let’s talk”. We spent the next hour discussing our business operation and different marketing strategies. We then had a follow up call in which Jeff came prepared with a full presentation and spent the afternoon explaining each line item step by step of how to execute our short term marketing goals. He did all this on his own time for nothing in return. We do not have an agreement in place and there's no guarantee of future business when working with a startup.I can't thank Jeff and the Ethic team enough. They will be our “go to” for all our future marketing needs but it's not because of the free time they gave us, but rather their level of expertise. Our company launched service in January 2023 and currently has 400 app downloads. I will give a follow up review in one year to showcase the value of this experience. If you’re looking for a high level marketing company contact Ethic.
Candice Puzak's Review Sourced from Google
We've been working with Ethic for about a year and a half, using various forms of online advertising and strategy. They have been great partners - always quick to respond, thorough in their approach and knowledgeable in the ever changing digital ad space. Their ability to scale their services to fit our needs and budget has been extremely beneficial as well. We highly recommend Ethic to anyone looking for a quality digital partner.

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 identitiesare 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.
