If you clicked here after reading "Consulting Business Logo" kudos to you - because that can't sound overly exciting!
I have recently started my own business as a Compensation/Total Rewards Consultant. I'm looking to have a logo created to add to my emails, create a business card etc.
I mainly work with clients in any/all matters of compensation - from benchmarking and evaluations to creating new compensation structures and everything in between. It's all computer based, nothing exciting unless you are on the receiving end of these projects. In fact - let's face it, most people I know don't really understand exactly 'what' I do. It's exciting if you are a Comp or HR professional - beyond that it's a whole bunch of glazed over eyes as I talk :)
I'm open to anything really - I'm typically drawn to monochromatic palettes, symmetry and non "glitzy" pictures.
I do have a sense of humour and am very laid back generally - not something often seen in this line of work - and I would love for that to show a bit ... but nothing too 'out' there in terms of splash or way out there colours etc.

- Clean, symmetrical design - I've included in the upload a sketch section some logos that appeal to me (I cannot draw not am I creative enough to come up with a concept for you!)
Should not have
- glitz, 'pizazz' or anything that could be in the same family as 'jazz hands' :p
