In today's presentation we cover the ins and outs of crowdsourcing a logo with 99Designs or Crowdspring vs. using a do-it-yourself logo maker.

1. Logo Design: 99 Designs, crowdSpring,
and Logo Garden
by FitSmallBusiness.com

2. Fit Small Business recently redesigned our logo. We chose to
run a logo design competition
with 99designs. You can get an
excellent logo created for under
$500 with 99designs or its main
competitor crowdSPRING.
Old Logo
New and Improved Logo

3. Prior to using 99designs for Fit Small
Business, we successfully used them to
create a new logo for a dental office.
Having two good experiences with
99designs is the primary reason why we
are recommending them.

6. How do 99designs and crowdspring work?

7. Brief
Contest
Feedback
Choose
and Pay
You submit a project brief, which
includes:
● The words appearing in the logo
● A description of graphics or
images that you want to be
incorporated
● The style of the logo
● Examples of logos you like

8. Brief
Contest
Feedback
Choose
and Pay
Once submitted, the competition
becomes open to the thousands of
designers which are registered with
99designs or crowdSPRING.
Most of the designs are horrible at
first. However, the designs get better
as you provide the designers feedback
on the work being submitted.

Feedback
Choose
and Pay
When you get a design you like,
you can choose a winner and
pay the contest fee. If you don’t
like the designs, you don’t have
to pay anything.

10. Logo Designers Versus Logo Design Tools

11. With Logo Garden or similar
companies like Logo Maker you’re
designing the logo from pre-made
components. With these design tools
and the investment of several hours of
time, you probably can come up with a
generic, but professional looking
company logo.

12. Most of the logo design tools
advertise themselves as free. This is
very misleading. The tool is free to
use, but if you want to download a
high resolution file of the logo the
cost is anywhere from $20 to $50.
