Thanks for your comments Wal, Jan, Lina and Tom.

@Wal have you had check out the Youtube video I linked to. It’s quite good at going through all the steps involved. I even learnt something that I wasn’t aware of after all this time.

@Tom interesting feedback about the logo design competition. I’m still not a fan though. You can’t expect people to give you their best results if they’re not guaranteed payment.

Hi David, I’m really enjoying your posts. Very clear, and practical advice for those who (like me) could use a more professional touch when it comes to branding.

Interestingly, when I saw Armind Moran speak in Sydney recently, he said his preferred method was using logo design competitions, but that he would always ensure that he was offering the highest prize money at the time on whichever site he was using (I dont’ think it was elance). No doubt with more money on the table, there would be a much larger number and quality of responses.

What a great topic for a blog post, David. Thanks for sharing your hot tips. Your logos look pretty cool! Not a 5 buck job, hey? I've heard a lot about elance, although haven't yet tried it myself. You're doing well with the blog, David. Keep up the great work. .-= Lina Nguyen´s last blog ..Why you should get slapped on the head for logic thinking =-.
