Default Have a business name ... but need help with a tagline please
Hi everyone

I'm a new VA (and already have two clients ) however I need to make sure I'm not resting on my laurels by getting my website up and running!

I have come up with a business name and would love to know what others think about it. I came up with:

"i-Assist Corporate Solutions"

Although I have purchased the domain name and am currently using this - I'm not sure if I "love" it (IYKWIM)

My next problem is what my tagline should be. I have a couple:

- Your Indispensable Assistant
- I Assist you to get the job done
- Your Success is Our Success

I would really appreciate any input

Thank you

Cathy

Maybe come up with a few "I" words -- "Iword, Iword, and Iword" ?

Question Re: Have a business name ... but need help with choosing a logo
Hi everyone

I hope you’ve all had a lovely Christmas - I certainly have! (it was my first one as a Mum )

Thank you for your comments on the tag line ... I'm still tossing a few around. Now for the next dilemma!

I have received the first round of logo concepts from LogoNerds and I’m looking for your thoughts / opinions / comments please.

You can view them here: http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/..._11382_-01.jpg

My order of preference is Concept 5, Concepts 4, Concept 3 and Concept 6 – I’m not too keen on Concepts 1 and 2.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to comment.

Cathy

I like concept # 3 -- just gives me the impression of taking flight to accomplish a goal...

I am fond of Concept 4. Love checkmarks and also like your thoughts for "Your Indispensable Assistant"

So we're not going to make it easy because so far each of us are picking a different one. My favorite is #5, although I think I'd like it even better without the dark blue background.
I can just see a lot of branding potential for that letter 'i' in the teardrop, plus you wouldn't have to be locked in to the red, but could change out the color whenever you wanted. (I'm a big fan of making little changes like that to freshen things up).

I'm with Tina and like #5. I also agree with everything else she said about this logo. Also, having it without the background opens up a lot of color options, with it, you are stuck with the dark blue.

For my second choice, it would be #4.

Great logo concepts!

I also like concept #3. Though, make sure you also request a version on white, because you'll want that for inclusion in any documents you create (proposals/quotes, contracts, invoices, etc.).
