Ok. It's time for me to start advertising ect. I'm in the same boat alot of us are in. For years the work found me, never advertised. Now I need to. Going to start with a logo then a website, flyers and so forth. I picked an online company from someone here on CT's recommendation.

They sent me five choices with unlimited changes after I pick one. I have narrowed it down to these two. I like the bar and shield (guess it's a H-D thing). But I don't like the funky structure thing in the shield.

I like the modern look of the second one. Color changes would be in order as my truck is red. They were aware of this but s*** happens.

So what changes do you guy's recommend ? I'm all ears...........er.. eye's.

Except for the color red, I would pick the second one better. Maybe light red, blue, green or other color mix better then. :thumbsup:

First one looks like a hockey team logo. I'm like you--not sure what the h that structure is.

Both look very sharp
Should they say Construction AND Remodeling?

I like the second one, except for the bright red and yellow. Looks good overall, though.:thumbsup:

Don't feel stuck with the first five either. The Logo Company will start from scratch again if you're not happy...I got 15 before I found one to start working with....then had about 10 variations of that one done before settling in on one...:whistling

I vote #2. I like it, definitely have it say construction and remodeling, or just construction.

It is a pain in the a$$ to develop a logo, make sure you get exactly what you want. As far as the website, check out a ton of them, then write down all of the features you like and have someone build what you want.

I really like www.handyservices123.com and wish I would have seen it before mine was developed, the simplicity is what I really need for my line of business.

I recommend Footbridge, my site is getting me business.:thumbsup:

Number 2 has a more welcome feel to it, the first one is kinda cool looking but I dont think it has a friendly appeal to it. Plus the framing or whatever that is on the top one looks kinda weird

I like number 2 also. The first one is to Harley. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with Harley, but they have their logo, now you need yours.
There is a company around here who use the harley logo exact, just different text. Every time I see that truck I laugh to myself, it's like "ok dude we know you like harley's".

#1 you could make arm patches for the guys. Then give them stripes on the sleeves for seniority like sargents. :thumbsup:
