Design Your Logo With Stitching In Mind



Example of Embroidered Logo

One of the major parts of starting a business is designing a logo. This might seem a bit trivial, however your logo is going to represent your business, and it’s going to be on all of your products, your business cards, and even your employees’ clothes and hats.

Where Is Your Logo Going To Be?

If you have employees, you might want to have them wear simple uniforms made up of T-shirts and hats. Depending on the sort of capital you have at your disposal when starting out, you might want to consider embroidering your logo instead of having it screen-printed. It may cost more upfront, but it will last longer, and it will make your employees look more professional.

It may be helpful to keep the following in mind when designing a logo:

     Colors - If your logo involves colors, make sure they won’t clash with or blend in against various colored t-shirts and hats. If you have white letters with a black outline, they will show up easily on any color background. Alternatively, you can design a colorful logo that will stand out against a black or white shirt.
     Lettering - There are several documentaries available that discuss how different fonts impact us from a psychological standpoint, and how logos need to utilize certain typefaces. You should also keep in mind what kind of font you are choosing for your embroidery. Logos with lots of spaces are not generally good for stitching, and overly flourished logos can get lost in translation.

Of course, you need to choose a logo that is best for your company, and then you can translate it to print screening or embroidery from there.

Having embroidery merchandise can really be an asset for any company - especially a start-up. It provides a cohesive look to your workforce, helping employees look polished and professional, and can also help put your clients at ease.
