What do our logo and branding packages cost?

Three fixed prices. A logo with its colours and fonts is $890: a main logo with two variations, a colour palette, two brand fonts and a one-page brand sheet. A full brand identity is $2,400: a logo system, a full colour and type system, a brand guidelines document, a social media kit, and business cards and stationery. Brand plus content is $4,900, which adds packaging and print, and a photo and video shoot.

Every package is on the pricing page, line by line, and on our branding page.

What is a reasonable price for a logo design?

For a business that plans to be around in five years, $500 to $2,500 is reasonable for the logo alone, and more if you also want the colours, fonts and rules that make everything match. Below $500 you are usually buying a picture, not a design someone thought through for your customers.

Is $500 too much for a logo?

No. $500 is at the bottom of what a freelance designer in Canada charges. It is too much only if you are still testing whether the business will work; then a simple text logo you make yourself is fine until it does.

What does a brand identity include?

The logo and its versions for small and large spaces, your colours, your fonts, and a short guide that says how to use them. The point is that your website, sign, van, social posts and invoices all look like one business, without anyone guessing.

Can ChatGPT or an AI logo maker design my logo?

It can make a picture in seconds. What it cannot do is check that nobody else already uses something similar, think about where your logo has to work, or give you a file a printer can use. If you trademark your name later, a logo that looks like someone else’s becomes a real cost.

How much does logo design cost in India?

Common questions

How long does a logo take?

Most of the time goes into rounds of changes, so ask for the timeline in writing and reply quickly. The design itself is rarely the slow part.

Do I own the logo?

You should, fully, with the editable source files. Ask for that in writing before you pay anyone.

Do I need a new logo when I get a new website?

Not always. If your logo is clear on a phone screen and you have it as an editable file, keep it. If it only exists as a blurry picture, fix that first.

How do I get a fixed price for my logo?

Tell us what the business does and where the logo has to work. Ask for a fixed price, and see what our branding work looks like.
