Logo Design Business

[Steve-O]

I was just wondering, how many of you (members of the board) actually have a design business? Like one with clients and making money and such. Or how many of you belong to a business like this? I am very interested to see the results. I am thinking of a career of some sort that relates to logo and identity design so I am just wondering. Thanks for your time.

I voted no because although I have done some paid logo work under SyPhi Creations, I have never advertised (except through this board) and don't actively pursue logo jobs.

I voted no because although I have done some paid logo work under my name, I have never advertised (except through this board) and don't actively pursue logo jobs.

same here.

I voted yes. I have done quite a few corporate logos, and hope to someday bridge into some sports work.

As some of you know, you can see my portfolio at Cobalt Cube

i'm in the crowd of 'thinking about it.' currently no, as doing original logos is usually hit or miss for me, more on the hit side lately.

[fiasco!]

i voted yes, my wife and i have gotten paid for alot of work under the fiasco productions guise. you can see a partial portfolio here.

[slapshot]

I voted yes, even though my website is in the "perpetual/eventual" state of re-design.

Wicked stuff guys! Anyone else have anything to say? I was hoping someone like Nitro could just post to tell us how and when he got started and what it took to get him there. It's interesting to see how many of us are professionals, how many arent and how many aspire to be.

I'm currently doing graphic & web design for a company but I'm getting closer and closer to doing it independently too.
