Branding

Once you’ve hammered out your remote work income plan and acquired the domain name for your new brand, you’ll want to have a professional logo designed to represent your new work venture.

You can use a logo/brand designer you already know or we can assist you with your brand design. It’s important that whoever designs your brand does not infringe on anyone elses trademarks. That means no clipart or stock images can be used in the design. Be careful of designers using clipart and keep in mind that if your new brand gets big someday, you could be sued if your brand contains someone elses copyrighted/trademarked materials.
