2. Complete Worksheet B<br />

Each participant in the branding strategy session should complete Worksheet B<br />

by making a check on the scale for each attribute, with the middle circle being<br />

neutral. There is also a line beside each attribute if participants want to give an<br />

example of another brand’s logo to better illustrate their stance.<br />

3. Group Review<br />

As a group, you will want to go through each attribute listed in the worksheet<br />

one by one and discuss each in detail. Going around in a circle, ask each participant<br />

what they rated each one on the scale and why.<br />

There are no right or wrong answers since they are all personal opinions. It is the<br />

job of the moderator to lead the discussion and have the group all come to an<br />

agreement.<br />

You’ll want to come up with a final worksheet with everyone’s agreed stance for<br />

each attribute and possible examples for each.<br />

Note: There should be general agreement on each criteria but all opinions don’t<br />

have to be exactly the same. The purpose of this worksheet is to bring everyone<br />

together on the general tone you want the logo to convey.<br />

4. Create Your Logo<br />

Now that you have a better idea of the attributes you want your logo to convey<br />

as well as keeping in mind your brand pillars, it’s time to create your logo.<br />

There’s lots of different ways at different levels of cost to create a logo for<br />

your new brand. Traditionally you would go to a designer and pay anywhere<br />

from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand dollars for several logo concepts<br />

and revisions. If your budget supports this, this is definitely a great way to go,<br />

however, for most of you bootstrapping your new business, a designer won’t<br />

be a viable option.
