Simple is always trending:
Like they say, simplicity never goes out of fashion and the same holds true for the logo too. The simpler your logo is the higher the recall value. For example, to take the very famous Apple logo, the old version designed by Rob Janoff was rainbow coloured and after that was the stark black look in 1998 followed by the current flat/white and gray versions as we see today. This simplicity is what everyone can easily relate to and needs to no add-ons to it.
Brand Consistency:
Your logo will convey your company’s message to masses, so make sure it speaks well of your brand image and what it stands for in the long run. Take for instance, Apple logo which denotes its free and innovative spirit along with being a friendly user-friendly technology. Then there’s Nike swoosh logo which remains almost the same since its inception except few changes denoting the Greek goddess of victory.
Make it easy to remember/ High recall value:
Easy logos are always the favourite ones, if something isn’t too fancy then it’s easy on the mind to remember and recall. Perhaps, this is the quality check of a brand logo, if it’s easy to recall and remember – then chances multiply that it will lead to repeat customers.
Uniqueness/ Makes your brand stand out:
Does your logo makes your brand stand out from the rest in the clutter of the market? Well, if it does, you have made the right start.
