Contest Brief

No 3D stuff and special backgrounds. The logo should work on a plain background.

I am starting a new company named ATCM solutions.


A = assess
T = train
C = coach
M = measure

The idea is to use a software tool to assess the situation in the beginning. Then train and coach to improve the situation. And then measure the change and continuously monitor the change.

So the tool used to assess is the same as the tool used to measure afterwards.

This is a business to help other businesses to improve something in their daily activities. Could be improving meetings, workflows, team work... Over time different solutions will be offered to a specific business problem.

The tag line for the company is Simply Effective and that will then become the name for the different websites that offer a specific solution such as simplyeffectiveteams.com or simplyeffectivemeetings.com.

Color scheme.

The logo can have 2 to 5 colors from the following colors.

Red color meaning in business

Red gives people the signal to act. However, this color needs to be handled rather judiciously: you do not want the viewer to feel overwhelmed and yet you’d want to command or encourage movement. When using Red in business, use it as an accent color to tempt buyers to buy on an impulse. A touch of red to a website can help portray the business as energy- driven and exciting.

Orange color meaning in business
Using orange in business suggests adventure, fun and travel. It is a beneficial color for hotels travel companies and resorts and can stimulate social communication. Orange is friendlier, approachable and less aggressive than red. Its negative color meanings in business include loud, raucous and frivolous.

Blue meaning in business
Stability and depth are the best meanings of color Blue as far as its business usage is concerned. Most conservative corporate businesses have blue in some form or the other in their logos, business cards and brochures etc. Similarly, communication, Hi-tech, computer products, water industry, filtration, swimming pool cleaning businesses etc also always use blue. Health, wellness and travel industry typically use light blue while political and religious organizations tend to use dark blue.

Purple color in business
Wish to combine the passion of red and the stability of blue color meanings in business? Then purple is an ideal choice. Purple is a sign of wealth, wisdom, royalty, creativity and magic. It is highly recommended for women and children’s products industry while many men’s products are slowly getting attuned to this color as well. Use medium purple or violet shades to portray academic brilliance and wisdom. Lavender is considered ideal for home-based businesses which sell hand-made products, art work, crafts, lace and other items of symbolic or cultural significance. Avoid dark purple as its color meaning in business includes gloom, sorrow and frustration.

Gray color in business
Gray is a very safe and neutral color and combined with other colors it can be used in almost any business. It is ideal for legal and financial industries as well as for creating a hi-tech look by combining with blues or yellow etc. Positive meanings of grey color in business include: professionalism, maturity and dignity.

    For all submitting, thank you for the effort you put in. There is no need to do a fancy background since I need a logo that has a simple single color background and can be used against white and black.

    When starting out a rating of 3 does not really mean anything. Once I have more entries the ratings will reflect how I feel about a specific design.
