Company Name: Cynthia Jenkins Consulting Slogan: College by Design What We Do: I help high school students find their 'best match' college, put together a strong college application, and prepare to have a successful college experience. Our Industry: Education Formats Accepted .EPS only Top Three Things to Communicate through our Logo: #1 - It is a personalized service - each student is unique in his or her approach to finding and applying to college. #2 - That there is a dynamic process to searching for, finding, and applying to college #3 - That this can be a fun and exciting (but very important) time in students' lives. Our Target Audience: High school students and their parents. Styles that we are interested in: Wordmark A wordmark consists of the company name in a stylized type and may include small abstract or pictorial elements. Famous examples include: Pictorial Mark A pictorial mark uses literal or representative imagery to symbolize the brand. Famous examples include: Abstract Mark Uses abstract shapes and symbols to convey an idea or attribute about the organization. Famous examples include: Please note that the above brands are in no way, shape, or form associated with LogoTournament. They are cited as examples under Fair Use for the enrichment of the general public's knowledge of the graphic arts. Color Preferences: Please no gray or brown. Black only for very small elements. I don't envision primary colors, but bold 'variations' (for lack of a better term.) For example the Skype 'blue' is a strong blue, but not primary blue. Our Ideas and Additional Information: I really wanted "College by Design" to be the actual name of the business, but a state regulation prohibits the use of the word "college" in a registered business name. While "Cynthia Jenkins Consulting" is my official registered name, I want the focus to be all about College by Design. Perhaps the business name can be very small relative to the College by Design logo. I have an additional tagline: 'Expert guidance for creating your college path' - I would like to see if this could be worked in without cluttering the logo. Perhaps some versions with it, and some without would be helpful. I would like the essence of it to be engaging, but not 'cutesy' - to appeal to high school students and their parents as a professional, but not staid, business. The logo will provide the basis for the look and feel of my website. Where we will use the Logo: Web, Print, Billboards & Signs, Mugs, T-shirts
