Have you been dreaming of a fresh, new logo for your business? Well today’s your lucky day because the Signature Worx Suckiest Logo Contest is officially open!
Win a 100% custom designed, one-of-a-kind logo tailored around you and your business. This ain’t no template or clipart mishmash. You’ll receive the same tender loving care, thought-provoking process, and 436 questions from Signature Worx as does paying clients. No favoritism here!
Submit your current, crappy logo so I can look at it and use some of my patented non-scientific methods to determine just how bad it really is. Once all submissions have been received, we will post the absolute worst ones to our blog where our readers will point and laugh and vote on which one they think is the worst logo in the entire world. The logo that gets the most votes is the one that will receive the logo makeover which will include a completely new, 100% custom-designed Signature Logo. That’s a $349 value!
But wait – there’s more.
Rebranding your business with your new logo is bound to get expensive – even with a fancy schmancy new free logo. Think about it. You’ll need new business cards, stationery, maybe a new brochure, and possibly a better looking website to match your spiffy new brand. Plus, you should be compensated for having been mocked by your peers after submitting your crappy logo.
The winner of the 2011 Suckiest Logo Contest will also receive one of the following (should you choose to accept the mission):
- 50% off any of our Creative design services including custom quotes (does not include copywriting services)
- 30% off any of our Website design services including custom quotes (does not include copywriting services)
Note this is NOT a requirement for entry or to win! The winner can take his or her fabulous new logo and disappear, never to be heard from again, if he or she so chooses.
If you know someone who needs a brand boost, then be sure to send them here to submit their sucky logo for a chance to win!
