Methods Organizing
I am just launching my own business as a professional organizer. My background has been in project management but my passion is helping people to simplify their lives. I get a high from walking into a room that's cluttered and out of control and then walking out when it's neat, orderly, and organized in a way that will make the clients life easier. As a mom of two children under 6 I feel I can apply my experience in my own life to help other families function better.
** Another note. I asked for some feedback from some mom friends on all the designs and I'm getting a lot of comments that the logos just don't seem family oriented. The challenge is to come up with something that reads family but is still professional (without being to corporate).
*Addition based on submissions. I'd like to clarify that my business will be mainly about organizing clutter in the households and providing systems for people to feel they can better manage the chaotic schedules that often come with kids. Many of the designs have featured logos that seem to imply organizing lots of people rather than stuff. I just wanted to clarify for future submissions that it's not so much about organizing groups of people.
I plan to focus in the beginning primarily on families with children. My intention is to only do residential organizing as opposed to small business but if the business is run out of the home I could tackle that too. I'm envisioning my audience to be everything from expecting mothers trying to get their nurseries together to moms of teenagers trying to keep track of all the kids activities. Within the home I'll be working on anything from kitchens, to bathrooms, to playrooms, to closets, to offices, to garages to family rooms. Anyone who feels there is to much madness in their life and just needs a helping hand to get a grip on things would benefit from my services. Finally, it is my intention to leave my clients not only with a more organized household but with the tips, tricks, and systems to maintain the organization on their own.
For this project I need a logo in versions that can be used for both print and web. It should have a transparent background and look good on both light and dark backgrounds.
The logo should have the following company name and tagline:

Managing the Madness
I have gathered some designs that appeal to me at the following link but I'm really open to your expertise and ideas.

My favorite colors are natural ones like sage green and chocolate brown so I'd like to see something in those colors. However, again, I'm open to other colors. I'd say they just need to be soothing rather than to bright and overwhelming.
I have envisioned something that captures the idea of managing the madness in a simple visual. Nothing to cluttered as simplicity in the clients life is the goal. I plan to use this logo for my business cards, my website, my t-shirts and any other marketing materials I may need.
I'm excited to see what you can come up with!
