Design Text

Beyond the Books

Tagline

Include this tagline in my logo.

Describe who/what this design is about

This is for our company, Beyond the Books. We are an accounting and bookkeeping firm. We provide the day to day accounting for small businesses. We look at ourselves as more than just bookkeepers, we want to help our clients make the best financial decisions. We are their outsourced controller. We go beyond just doing the books. We do not do taxes, we get the books ready for the CPA. We do not take ourselves too serious but we pride ourselves on our high level of customer service. So I need something that is catchy, but gets to the point quickly.

What colors would you like?

I like blues and greens, but I am open for other options. I would also want a black and white version of the logo.

How many colors do you want in your design?

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

I have two trains of thought. 1. Symbol with our name either next to it or underneath. I want the option to use just the symbol by itself or the logo and the name. 2. The other train of thought is to have the design based on the name without a symbol.
Even though I have “Books” in the company name, I am not sure I would like a book as part of the logo. I don’t want to be confused with a bookstore. But if we can cleverly combine with accounting, I am all for it.

Thank you to all of the designers. You did some great work. I am having a tough time deciding which design I like best. I will select shortly and let you call know. Thanks again.

I like the different logos like #47 and #46. Could I see those in a couple of different color options?

lykboknoylyk: instead of the lines in the paper on #19, could you use a bar graph or spreadsheet? Kind of like in excel?

Thanks for the great work! This is becoming very hard to decide what I like. I have several different ideas which are conflicting. So thanks for putting up with me. Here are some more comments. 1. I want to stay away from books in the picture. I like #8 but the icon inside “B” but it should be something accounting related. I am not exactly sure what that is, but I will know when I see it. Calculators, file folders, papers seem to be working for me. Maybe money. Please be creative here. 2. I like the file folder in #16, but could you use the color scheme in #17. Also, could you give me an example with the name stacked? 3. I like #18 and #19. The icons are great. Could you try some different fonts for the letters? And maybe try it with the name on one line. 4. I like the idea of #11 but right now it looks like a butterfly. Needs a little tweaking. #10 and #9 are too busy.

I would like to see the icon in #4 with the lettering format in #1. I like how "Beyond the Books" is not on one line. I also like the darker colors in #4. I think it looks more professional.

The logo in #4 is on the right track, but I would like to see the name in a different font or in a different style similar to the other designs.

I like the way the company name is shown in #1 and #2. I don't like the logos though. I would like to see something more accounting related.
