Is there any service that can help with developing a Brand Name and logo?

Whilst i can write, keep organised, due diligence, marketing etc. I am not very artistically creative.

I am looking to start importing again to sell on my own ecommerce store together with Amazon, Facebook and market through my extensive list of contacts all involved in Martial Arts of varying disciplines.

I want to launch my own brand, I have no idea of what to call it as the usual 'action' type brand names are already taken. I have sourced factories in a number of countries and tested the quality of the items which I will be focussing most of my efforts on.

I also have a number of top competitors in various disciplines who are willing to market and endorse my products which will help with marketing.

I am stuck at the 'Brand' stage. I have brainstormed, asked others but just can't seem to come up with the 'right' brand. Design of the items is not a big problem either. I have tested numerous factory supplies and mad comments on how to improve on design. I have access to designers that will make the designs 'pleasing on the eye'

The only problem I am facing is with the actual brand name. Anyone have any ideas of a service that could help?

Regards

Lee

    We like using short, memorable non-dictionary words. For example, we just launched our own brand name of men's wedding bands and chose the brand name 'Zilo Rings'. Even being in a "sports" niche I don't think it's necessary for your branded name to actually be a real "action" type word. Make up something short and quirky and memorable and call it good!

    BTW, before you put a bunch of time and effort into this, check the trademark database to make sure your name is unique within your industry. You wouldn't want to spend a ton of time branding something, just to have it yanked from you because someone already TM'd it!

    Well, it sounds great that you are thinking to start an online business with your brand. Before moving to this, you need to decide a perfect domain name for online business and a perfect logo as well as banners. After that, you need to take an assist from a good ecommerce platform firm, which provides you a number of services for setting up your business.

    Yes, the more information you put on paper the better the results, really depends on your budget though, if any.

    Well, I am completely in favor of all the above comments. First you do some paper works regarding your product as well as business plan and strategies, after that move for the logo as well as banner, which is the key factor to attract any visitor. After that, think about the features and facilities what you will provide to your customers and also write the unique content for your products as well as domain page. When, all the task has been done, then move on design a website.
