The premise behind eLogoContest is simple: Companies needing a new brand create a "Logo Design Contest", providing all of the information they can on what they do and what they are looking for, they also select the "prize amount" they wish to pay the designer whose work they pick as the "winner". The project is then presented to thousands of designers, who each create a design based on the information provided. These designs are then presented to the Company, who rates and comments on each of them before selecting one as a winner. The designer whose work gets selected as the winner get paid the full amount of the prize.
eLogoContest holds and facilitates the contest with it's simple and easy to use interface. Live support staff is available for any questions.
ABOUT "CROWD SOURCING": Crowd Sourcing is an increasingly popular way of getting design work done: multiple service providers compete for the full amount being offered for the project, resulting in increased variety for the customer and a large payout for the winning designer. Although Crowd Sourcing has come under heavy fire from some conventional designers no one can deny it is gaining popularity among the masses.

Logo design, in today’s world, can prove to be an important factor for the success of a business or organization. Everyday we come across plenty of different types of logos. Some of them are quite popular like the ones of Coca Cola, Nike etc. These logos are, in fact, so popular that the company and its products cannot even be visualized without their logo. Then there are some logos that might not be quite popular but definitely creates a long-lasting impression on the viewer. And then there are probably plenty of more logos which we overlook and forget. Whatever the case is, the bottom-line is almost every company, product, website or service today uses some sort of logo, designed to target specific audience or create an impact.
But we hardly know how the concept of logo came into being. We hardly try to find out where this concept was first started or who masterminded the design of the first ever logo. Well, there are some pretty interesting facts about the origin and history of logo design.
As an entrepreneur, one of the most important business decisions is choosing the right logo design. Irrespective of the fact whether a logo is designed by some hired professionals or is an in-house development of the organization, certain crucial and important decisions has to be made. Whatever happens, an entrepreneur will always want his logo to work well for his company. And it is true that a logo can prove to be an important factor for the success of a business or organization.
However, many entrepreneurs make the mistake of choosing their logo on the basis of their personal preferences. But personal preferences should rather be left alone when deciding on the right logo design for a company.
While designing a logo certain factors should be kept in mind. And these factors become more important than personal preferences or likings. It would decide whether the logo would actually work well enough for the company and help spread its visual branding successfully and smoothly.
An organization might not have been in the business since107 long years, but if it has started of by investing in building a brand identity with a good logo design, the word "success" is not far away from it. Most business ventures start with a negligible market share; it is only through the application of good marketing strategies, smart management decisions and constant dedicated effort at all levels small business eventually turns out to be a big brand. For a new business start-up or a small business, a well-planned marketing strategy is perhaps a pre requisite from the day one itself. The business logo design forms an indispensable part of a good marketing strategy and the first step towards the making of a powerful brand.
