As a team and on our own we hate telling someone when something is bad. Especially, when I could have designed it myself (and mind you …. I can barely draw a smiley face). So, today when we get asked to look at someones logo – and it looks like something I could have done (did I mention you do not want me designing anything?). Hire a professional. My typical response is … “you know it could be better, right? Today’s response … .maybe slightly more blunt. My advice? Always hire a professional … and this also means not redoing the work that they have done.
