How to Design a Great Logo

In a nutshell

A logo is the first thing customers see and the last thing they remember. Never have they been so important, never have the opportunities for getting it wrong been so great. This course will show how to recognise what elements combine to make a great logo, and how to create a selection of different designs that will deliver impact, engagement and long-term business value. Delegates will be guided in workshopping their own logo projects on the day.
