Selected Logos / Category: Management Services / Security Service
"Power, strength, protection, determination."
What comes to your mind when you see this?
"None of the above!"
That was my Mom's response. I don't blame her because the logo that you just saw belongs to a famous security company based in Tennessee, U.S.A, and I cannot fathom why Walden and such security companies' logos don't really exude the service they provide. They actually risk their lives to protect us but their logo and symbol don't project that. The websites for these companies are bragging about how successful they are, and how efficient their service is, but let me tell you one thing, my Mom is the most protective person on earth when it comes to her children, and if (metaphorically speaking) one of these companies were to guard me... she would freak out!
Here's what Mom would say about famous security company logos in the U.S. Brace yourselves, Mom was in the advertising industry back in her days and she's pretty judgmental when it comes to logos!

"Well, well, well - a very impressive logo design for the world's leading international security solutions group. So creative, so ingenious, I must say. Have you ever heard of graphic designers? You know, those people who work with illustrations and create logos for you so that they don't look like crap?"

"Eagles, flags, shields, what is wrong with these leading companies! Does leading mean uncreative in the security industry? Is there no other symbol that you can use? And if you really want to use an eagle, can you at least make it look scary. You really want me to take out my walking stick and show you what scary is!?"

"Okay, I take back my previous verdict, eagles, flags, shields are so much better than circles. I'm sorry I called the last logo uncreative. This one's just won me over in terms of ridiculousness hideosity: , three red circles?"

"This just keeps getting worse. How is a globe with three orbits around it a good choice for a security company logo? Someone needs to tell me quick, I'm already 50 with a weak heart and need to solve this mystery before my time is over."
About the company:
The website for the company states that St. Moritz has built a solid reputation in the security industry through the high level of customer service provided by security officers.
"Pepper steak with mashed potatoes. That's what I would think if I saw this logo on its own, without the words "security services" inscribed below it. Need I say more?"
"Shame on all of you! You may be good with your services, but your security logos say 'I am a sissy company!'. A word of advice: don't be so stingy with your profits and spend some money on creating a better logo.
I understand the need for security service logos to adopt a serious identity, but I don't understand why they have to be so uncreative. All the companies mentioned above seem to be doing really well and I feel a good logo can really make their websites and uniforms look better. Why? Because a good security logo will make them look more trustable, especially people like me with overprotective parents!
