The Logo Farm is a logo design business that I've set up to service local small businesses and organisations, start-ups, sole traders, clubs and events.

I've done my time in the corporate branding world, and now I want to use my skills and experience to help the real people out there who might not ordinarily have access to quality branding and design for their business. I'm a professional, I don't use jargon and I can price my services to suit any budget

It's an exciting time for small business in the construction, tourism and hospitality sectors – not to mention all the people our there growing, making and crafting artisan products. And for anyone thinking about how to get noticed and get a share of the action, a sharp logo and fully crafted brand look and feel is one part of that puzzle.

Check out my website to find out more about my services and pricing, and get in touch if you want to discuss your small business branding needs.
