Creative Brief


Business Logo for CPA Firm

Trexler & Company, P.C. Certified Public Accountants

Certified Public Accountants

Yes

Need a professional logo for a small CPA firm in a small community. Our company name is Trexler & Company, P.C., but we also want the “Certified Public Accountants” to appear in the logo.

The firm provides accounting and tax services to individuals and small to medium-sized businesses. I don’t know that it matters, but the firm is owned by father/son combination of CPAs, Michael Trexler (father) and Jared Trexler (son). I am relying heavily on the creativity of the designers, as I have no skill and limited ideas in this area.

The logo will be used on website, stationary, advertisements, mugs, pens, other accessories, and potentially on signs for our building/office.

Finally, when this project is complete, there will be another very similar project for a 2nd related company. The 2nd company is a related (same owners, staff, building, etc) investment services firm, but it is a separate legal entity. I didn’t include it in this project, because I thought it might get confusing. I will be looking for a similar look and feel to the winning design of this project.

I am open to ideas, as long as it looks professional. Potential options (but not limited) Blue/Black Red/Black Orange/Black Open to many color combinations. Just keep in mind that logo will be used on everything mentioned above.

Just a couple of ideas, but please don’t focus just on these. I really want creative ideas from designers that I can choose from.

http://orders.logodesignguru.com/contests/business-logo-albert-hurtado-cpa-pllc - colors and design are neat, although I would have to see what it looks like for our firm. Also, might be difficult because I’m not sure initials would work for our logo (unless we used something like T&C as initials).

http://www.investmentadvisornow.com/ - like the concept, not necessarily the colors

http://orders.logodesignguru.com/contests/david-hickam-cpa - like colors and many of the submissions as staring points

Looking for your ideas!

    Hi Designers. There were some issues with some of the designs from my project, so it has been re-opened for 3 days. Thanks, Jared

    Hi Designers, I would like to see some more designs with just a "T" in the symbol. There's only 1 more day left on the project, and I won't be extending it any longer. I've rated my top picks with 4 stars. Thanks, Jared

    Hey Designers, I'm impressed with some of the designs coming in. I've extended the project 2 more days. This will definitely be the last extension. As a reminder, I like the symbol/initials to the left of the firm name. I also like the vertical bar between the symbol and firm name and the lines on each side of the "Certified Public Accountants" (i.e. #299) Thanks, Jared

    I've extended the project for 3 days. I am currently trying to decide if I want our logo to contain "T", "TC", or "T&C". If the C represented another partner, there would be no question. However, I am still undecided if I want the "& Company" to be represented in the symbol.

    Thanks again designers! I am impressed so far with the results. Please keep them coming! I will be eliminating some of the designs that either don’t meet some of the general comments or don’t appeal to me. I’ll keep a few that might not meet the general comments, but perhaps could be modified. General Comments 1) The “P.C.” must be included in the logo (even if it’s smaller, like in #67) 2) On the logos that contain just a “T”, I like the ones that are more abstract better (i.e. #99, #95) 3) If using initials T&C, I prefer the “&” to be included, unless the letters are joined (i.e. #106, #72) 4) I prefer the firm name, “Trexler & Company, P.C.” to all be on the same line (except for obvious cases such as #97 and #67) General Requests 1) Would like to see a few logos with T & C – but somehow intermix the letters with the &. 2) Anyone have any ideas with just the firm name (no symbol or initials)?

    Thanks again to all of the designers for submissions. General Comments 1)Again, I don’t like the initials/symbol above the firm name. If incorporating it into the design, I prefer it be to the left of the firm name 2)For the designs with initials enclosed in shape, I prefer the square/rectangle/diamond over the circle shape. 3)I think I like the firm name in all caps better than mixed case. General Requests (no preferences at this point, just want to see some more ideas) 1)Can I see a couple of designs with just a “T” design to the left of the firm name 2)How about a few designs that incorporate the initials into the logo text (sample: http://orders.logodesignguru.com/drafts/display/contest/156794/draft/1266432) 3)Many designs have a circle or square. Can I see a few with just the initials (creatively combined) without being enclosed by circle or square? 4)How about some designs without initials or symbol to the left (just includes firm name) 5)I would like to see some more logos with abstract initials (ie. #40, #57) 6)How about a few more red/black designs?

    Thanks to those who have submitted designs so far. If using a symbol/initials, I prefer it to be placed to the left of the firm name rather than above the firm name. I will be providing more specific feedback as more drafts are submitted. Thanks, Jared
