I prefer a white background for the logo. Also, I am finding that I don't care for black in the logo. It has its place, but whenever I see it in this contest, it does not seem right. I like the uses of blue, aqua and red. Grey has been used successfully as a secondary color as well. I am also finding that yellow and orange don't seem to be working well with this concept. Thanks!

Design inspiration

It is fitting for its purpose. Fairly clean. I don't personally like the colors, but that does not necessarily matter. It probably works well for why it exists. The soccer ball is small and hard to read. Otherwise, pretty sweet.

Nice typeface. Creative use of paint drop splashing and forming a crown. It works. It looks upscale, which is good, if that is what the company is.

Color and head of squirrel works well. Tail and middle don't read as well. There is no typeface, so I don't know what this is. I think the colors work well together.

This has a nice initial appeal. I like the colors and how they work together. There is some complexity, so it might not read well when it is small or far away. Especially the yellow lettering.

I like the colors and concept. Good typeface skills. The leaf, looks a little weird, but once I realized that it is a box it made more sense.

The graphic looks very professional. Not sure what it is without text.

Cool retro look. Design is great. The spacing and design of image and type is very well done. If the company matches well with the retro, trendy them, then I would think it is a very successful logo.

Not sure what the concept is, but this definitely gets attention. The graphic is nice and fits well with the type.

Nice design work. Not sure what it is for, but if the product brand needs to be clever, trendy and creative, this should work very well.

This has a very positive initial impression. The design works well.

Other notes

Greetings!

I am excited to get your submissions. Below is some information that I hope you find helpful.

Please base your logo on the brief and avoid "generic" logos as indicated in the links below:

Rapid Iteration
Rapid: happening in a short time or at a fast pace.
synonyms: quick, fast, swift, speedy, expeditious, express, brisk;
Iteration: The repetition of a process or utterance.

The logos I like so far, I would describe as subtle, sophisticated and simple.

The ones that are not working as well tend to be, complex, busy, and overly literal.

Less is more seems to work well.

VISION
The purpose of this company is accelerating growth - both personal and business. The idea is to help people help themselves grow into the version of themselves they want to become.

Rapid Iteration is there to inspire, facilitate, and encourage people to reach that goal. Often this is done in a collaborative fashion. Getting people together who can solve the bigger problems such as the NM Water Genius Group.

Also, I have attached a little sketch of the process used in all our endeavors (Learn-Think-Create-Share). This does not necessarily need to be incorporated into the logo, but it should help to give an idea of what we do. We are mainly an idea company.

It is ok to do the Rapid Iteration logo with or without the slogan.

Some logos work great with no mark - only text. This is an option as well.

Target is:
Someone who is very interested in improving themselves.
Often a business owner.
Invests in themselves.
Is already interested in reading and learning business and or personal development.
Positive.
Has a sense of purpose.

No website yet. Working on logo first.

This is a new company and the company itself is undergoing rapid iteration. I expect it to evolve quickly. The vision and purpose will get stronger as the company develops.
