A KILLER Logo Project by Michael Alden + Theory 9 Design. Pledge a little, get a Logo! Pledge a bit more, get a whole lot more!

Overview

Let's not reinvent the wheel, here...

Hey! Thanks for stopping by to see what's up =]

Inspired by the brilliant concept put forth by Brandon Eck in his blockbuster "Let's Make a Bunch of Logos" project (and with his blessing), I have decided to challenge my creativity in a similar way! My typical design projects are websites, websites, websites (fun, but monotonous). Much of the time, the client provides the logo...and more often they just don't care about their branding (what?!?). So I want to design a TON of logos for as many people as want them! I love logos. You love logos! Everyone LOVES a memorable logo. So let's join forces and make a cuss-load of them.

Every backer of this project will receive their very own, one-of-a-kind logo. Whether you want to see your name branded or you have a company, band, book, e-book or other hard product in need of a branding, this is the project for you! All logos will then be on display at kickcusslogos.com with YOUR LOGO LINKED to the destination URL of your choice (let's keep it SFW, people!). The more backers, the more logos. The more logos, the more links. The more links the more -- I dunno -- but it should be fun =]


About the Rewards...

It's all about the logos! Every backer will receive a client questionnaire, upon successful funding, providing the opportunity to give me a little guidance in creating their logo(s). At the $25, $50 and $100 LEVELS, there are no revisions...though at the $100 LEVEL I will provide TWO quality, one-of-a-kind logos from which to choose. Not to worry...I am here to protect my reputation in the marketplace and build a stellar reputation as a KILLER logo designer for Kickstarters! What this means to you is, even at lower funding levels, you're assured of getting my very best efforts with each and every logo I create! I have little doubt each and every backer will be exceptionally pleased. My reputation is at stake!

I have also offered Pledge LEVELS with much sweeter Rewards! Need to get that website off the ground? I'm the man for that! Check out a few samples below...

Sample 1, Sample 2, Sample 3, Sample 4, Sample 5

Take a close look at the rewards and see how to best utilize your pledge. And if you have any questions -- at all -- please feel free to just ask! I am here to serve you.

Also, please note: in the event this project does well...and I mean REALLY well...my projected delivery date *may* change a bit here or there. Remember, my first priority is to create a QUALITY logo for each and every Backer. That being said, I am sure you'll all rally around me and allow the creative process to happen naturally. And I thank you in advance for understanding it's really about the quality, not the quantity =]

A little bit about me...

My name is Michael Alden and I'm a 14 year veteran of the design game. I started out in 1998 by accident and when I found out I could earn a living, working at home (oft times in my underwear), I was hooked, NO LOOKING BACK! I quickly earned a reputation as a reliable, dedicated, meticulous and highly creative designer. I've taken the occasional stint working in-house for various entities (you can check out my resume here) but have always maintained "my own thing." And now I want to share my creativity with YOU.

Thanks for stopping by and investing a bit of your time. I'm looking forward to working with each and every one of you who choose to believe in me!
