Interest Works
We are a financial services company that is focusing on both the residential and the commercial mortgage markets with our emphasis on catering to small business owners. Our goal is to help small business owners grow their businesses. We will do this by providing content on our website in response to their expressed interests as well as some consulting services and of course our mortgage services. We will add other financial services in the future so please keep the logo open to multiple financial services and not just mortgages.
We would like to be able to use the logo on both black and white backgrounds but we are open to other background colors for the right design. We want a clean, high quality, original design so that it can be seen clearly on everything from large banners to fax transmissions and business cards. We do want some sort of original symbol / icon in our logo and are leaning away from using the first letters of our company name as the symbol / icon in our logo but are not opposed to it. We like the idea having a few colors in the logo and are open to anything that looks professional and yet stands out as original and memorable. The logo must be able to stand alone as it will be used on everything including corporate literature, business cards, letterhead, marketing materials, advertising, and the website.
We also want to have letterhead and a business card front and back designed. However, we don’t want anyone to spend time doing all of this work up front. First, just submit the logo. If we are interested enough in the logo to award 5 stars, we then ask that you resubmit your design with letterhead and business card designs. This way we aren’t wasting your time.
