Looking for the 99designs ready-made logo store? In 2012, they opened the shop and filledĀ it with stock logos for sale to browse and get ideas and inspiration. However, they closed it in 2016 šĀ But wait, you can still get all the benefits of browsing logos ideas and ordering your company name inserted for a great price. Read on for how to get a ready made logo for your new business at 99 designs
Ideas and InspirationĀ
Perhaps you, like me, aren’t able to describe what I wanted in a logo design. I had more of a feeling that a real idea of what it should look like.Ā Sometimes, I don’ t have a clue of what I want in a logo design. I just want it to be “good”.Ā Ā As such the ability to see ready-madeĀ logos and select one to be customized for my firm is a great help for the undecided and the inarticulate (at least in design language).

Speed
By getting your logo from a stock bank of logo designs seems like it should be faster, right? Pick the logo, give them my great business name and voila, new logo. While this may seem so, it is not so in reality. Instead, follow these tips to get a new custom logo in the same amount of time as a boring stock logo – that every one of competitor has used in the past.

Second, as part of the logo design contest order, you will be given many logos to click and submit to the 99designs artists as “inspiration”. This helps them to understand your design aesthetic and you get comfort knowing that your logo will be similar to the ones you checked.
Watch my order my new logo and see how they prompt you with visual logos, colors, and words to help you take the ideas in your head and add them to the design brief.
Third, you will find, as I did when I ordered the new logo for this site that you get so many great designs the problem will be picking just one as your new logo. Almost never do contestsĀ done with crowdsourcingĀ fail to get a great logo – that you love – created. I got over 100 logos submitted in my logo design contest.Ā
