With guides on everything from naming your business and designing your logo, to business cards and font creation, we strive to help you maintain your brand message within your organization.

What’s In A Name?

A lot when it comes to your business. Your company’s name is one of the most important branding decisions you’ll make — and it takes a great deal of forethought and research to get it right out of the starting gate.

How do you choose a name? Should you get super creative or play it safe? And how do you secure your domain name? We answer these questions and more in our article on how to name your startup.

Creating A Captivating Logo

A catchy, polished logo gives customers an easy way to connect with and remember your business. But if you don’t have a ton of money to spend on a talented graphic designer, what are your options?

With an online logo maker you can create the perfect logo for your brand at a fraction of the cost of hiring a design firm. See which ones we recommend in our reviews of the best online logo services. Our reviews include pros and cons, pricing and more.

Are Business Cards Still A Must-Have?

In our digital age, you might think that business cards are no longer necessary. Not so. Business cards are still an excellent way to boost your brand recognition, often giving potential customers a visual introduction to your company’s name and logo (and, of course, all of your contact information).

See the best places to order business cards online — these sites have tons of customizable designs and can save you a lot of time and money over visiting your local office supply store.

Do you have any tips on how to develop a cohesive business brand?
