Logo for new division consistent | separate identity

Hudson Valley Message Bureau / Berkshire Communicators

Berkshire Communicators has been providing telephone answering services for over 70 year. We have developed an excellent reputation over the years. We have acquired a new company in a different market and want to portray in our logo the same message - excellent service, long standing company.

The target audience is diverse anyone who uses dispatch and wants professional friendly and accurate message taking while they are out servicing clients. We also do home alarm monitoring and personal emergency response systems. In addition, paging and voice mail services for individuals and companies.

We recently acquired a new company which is not separately incorporated so we need to include a small "division of Berkshire Communicators, Inc." to ensure that our audience is aware it is a a corporation. The real issue is the length and size of the logo based on these requirements. The logo needs to be able to be reproduced in newsprint and other ads/mediums. We have tried ourselves but logo has been too big (see attached current version)
- definitive, eye catching
- incorporates look and feel of Berkshire Communicators logo (see attached)
- uses "blue" in existing logo
- be able to be used on biz cards, letterhead, invoices, ads and website
- please do NOT use the word "Academy" in the new logo. The name in the logo should be "Hudson Valley Message Bureau"

We would also entertain refreshing our existing Berkshire Communicators logo but we like it enough to stay with it. Either both logos need to have consistent look and feel.
