Great customer service turnaround time was great done within a few hours. I really love my logo. It’s nice and clean and any extra questions that I had. They had no problem with walking me through everything. I highly recommend.

Lanaya Jones-ParkerGoogle review

After many hours of fruitless efforts trying to create my own logo I finally decided to hire a professional. My only regret, is not calling sooner. Would have saved me much time and heartache.
I had the pleasure of working with Zee. In just one afternoon, he was able to create my logo. It turned out absolutely beautiful ! Even better than I could have imagined! I am still in awe at how perfect my results turned out. The experience was sweetened by the fact that I did not have to sacrifice quality for an affordable price. Amazing!
I Highly recommend Logo in hours, and Zee in particular. Thanks so much for everything!

Charlotte BennettGoogle review

I highly recommend using this company to create your logo. They are truly artists, and the process went smoothly with the changes that I made, which were quickly turned around for review. The customer service was always attentive and great. Search no further. You have found the best company.

01 · Custom logo design

A logo built for your business. Not recycled from someone else’s.

Every project starts with a real conversation: what you do, who pays you, and what a customer should feel when your truck pulls up or they walk past your storefront on Woodward. Then a designer goes to work in Adobe Illustrator, drawing original directions from a blank artboard. You compare real options side by side, pick the one that feels like you, and sharpen it together until it’s exactly right.

2–4 original concepts, each a genuinely different direction
Revisions straight with your designer by phone, text or email. No ticket queue.
Licensed fonts and hand-built icons. Never clip art, never templates.
Full ownership, plus every vector and source file

03 · AI logo to high resolution

Got an AI logo? We’ll make it ready for the real world.

AI gives you a promising picture. It doesn’t give you a file a sign shop, embroiderer or printer can actually use. Those images are low-res pixels, often with misspelled letters and shapes that turn to mush the moment you blow them up.

We treat your AI image like a sketch and rebuild it by hand as clean vector artwork: correct lettering, balanced shapes, exact colors. The result stays razor-sharp everywhere, from a phone screen to a billboard on I-94. You keep the idea you love and lose the problems.

What AI hands you

About 1024 px, pixelated when enlarged
Letters that are misspelled or melted
Uneven curves and extra specks
Colors that change between versions

What we hand back

Vector artwork, sharp at any size
Correct, clean typography
True curves and even spacing
Defined HEX, CMYK and Pantone colors

04 · Small business logo design

Big-league branding on a small-business budget

Most of our clients run small businesses: a two-truck plumbing outfit in Warren, a salon in Southfield, a startup in Midtown. You need a logo that looks established on day one and still holds up when you open the second location or put the third truck on the road.

Honest pricing: custom logos typically run $125–$200, quoted before we start.
Cheaper to print: one- and two-color versions that keep sign and shirt costs down.
Readable everywhere: from a tiny Google Maps pin to the side of a van.

06 · Logo copyright

Your logo. Your property. In writing.

Ownership questions always show up at the worst time: when you’re ordering signs or filing a trademark. We settle it up front, in plain English.

Ownership transfers to you

Once your final logo is approved and paid for, the rights to that design belong to your business. Print it, change it, trademark it, or hand it to any vendor you want. No licensing fees, no strings.

Original, clean artwork

Every mark is drawn from scratch with properly licensed fonts. No clip art, no stock icons, nothing that could come back to bite you when you register a trademark.

Copyright vs trademark

Copyright protects the artwork itself. A trademark protects the logo as a brand identifier and is registered separately. Speak with a trademark attorney about registration.

Read our plain-English guide: logo copyright and ownership explained.
