Hello,

Sorry I haven't been active lately. I'm extremely busy between working full time, taking college classes and starting a side business. Business is decent. I'd be starving to death if it currently my only source of income though, :P

I'm interested in paying someone $25 for a good logo. I fix electronics but the logo just has to be memorable, simple and incorporate the name.

The name of the company is:
EZ PC Care

The logo should be simple and you can read up on good ideas: http://www.creativebloq.com/graphic-design/pro-guide-logo-design-21221


If anyone is interested feel free to post pictures. I'm only going to pay one person and only if I decide to use the logo, in which case I'll be purchasing all rights to it. $25 isn't much at all, this is more of a "thank you" than a payment.


I wish you scapers and fellow villavuian's the best!

Any feedback or tips (criticism, etc.) is VERY welcome

I dont need money, and this is just a random idea(rough sketch: needs work on the wrench):




bg is random

Could you post 3 logos you like?

I would make the 'C' and the wrench match up with the size of the rest of the word so it's more distinguishable- it took me a second at first glance. Also I think making the wrench white (keeping the other letters' shadow over it) would make it look cleaner.

I forwarded my namcheap domain to facebook because the site isn't ready.

I like your idea of the wrench being a C, pretty cool
As far as logos I like. I like simple modern/retro logos, lol (that probably did not help)

Nice glorified screen repair service haha. Aren't you just basically using these and charging a premium?

Most people dont have the capability to do it on their own… Id rather have someone locally do a repair than sending it off to china to get it repaired for cheaper. (or apple/whatever for 4x as much)

That's actually pretty cool. I think EZ should be bigger though.

Here's another interesting one someone made:

That one is actually really good, EZPC stands out and that's what you really want people to remember. It could probably do with some tweaking, such as if it were larger, make sure that "CARE" isn't as big as it is now in proportion to the C, but I really like that one.

If I may offer some business advice. Don't. Don't make yourself "cheaper than every other place by a lot". You're undervaluing yourself as a business and people will think you're doing a poor job, etc. If you have to compete on price then you don't really have a viable business. You should be able to compete on the job you do, rather than than the price. You might be able to cost slightly less because of location, but you're just cheating yourself out of money.

I started a company based on a product, and this advice is more applicable to that. But it still applies to you as a service. You are the product. Don't undervalue yourself. If you wanna throw any ideas by me I can try to offer advice. If you wanna do your thing then I strongly encourage you to. It's a great learning experience and can be a lot of fun.

OT: I like the last logo (the one Inc said he liked)
