New Logo for Cart business Tue, 02/19/08 7:28 PM (permalink)
My concept is selling high end sausages ( from local butchers ) and some exotics..I have suppliers for pineapple bratwurst, stout and carmelized onion sausage, leek and pepper, and irish whiskey and apple sausage. Plan on really going after event catering with street sales as a 2nd priority. I wanted my logo to project a clean, warm , feeling, with some country quality and goodness thrown in. I used logodesignguru.com and they delivered as promised.

    Very nice.

    Nothing beats a good graphic artist (or service).

          The design certianly looks professional enough. Question is, will it appeal to your target demographic? More importantly, is this the image YOU want to project?

          I'm not so sure log cabins exactly project "high-end", but then again I live in the South where "kountry kitsch" is done to death. It may well have more favorable connotations is other parts of the country.

            Hey Gary, I like it. Very professional looking and still cute and kitchy. I think your right about it being a sort of downhome comforting type logo. If you've got the personality to match then your most of the way there. How do you look in a plaid wool shirt and a beard? Kidding, I think your menu is great and in time you'll do well.

              Its nice but it doesn't really speak sausages to me. I know it says "sausage" in it but the logo itself wouldn't catch my eye and make me think of food. (it does resemble a maple syrup logo for some reason.)

                Perhaps the smokehouse in the logo should be constructed out of sausages ? As one poster put it ..You can way over think these things. I'm assuming (and hoping) that people will really remember my product,not so much my logo. I kinda picture someone ( after enjoying a spicy pineapple bratwurst w/ cream cheese ) telling a friend about the cart "with a little log cabin on it". at least thats the way I see it in my perfect daydream world. I certainly don't think the logo will drive people away from me.

                  Smoke houses are not made of sausage.

                  And what with the logo being on a sausage cart, its use will accomplish the point and set the classy mood you are looking to convey.

                  Using the logic that you need a sausage in the logo would extend to saying you'd have to have a cart in the logo to make sure passers by really get the point.

                  It is very good work.

                  Congrats.

                    I was Joking about the "Sausage Smokehose" I appreciate your kind words.. For a guy trying to start out ..its frightening and overwhelming all the stuff you have to do, just trying to do everything right. Thanks
