MyTechGuy : In-Home Computer Care
The new brand for my business needs a fresh and friendly business card/ stationary design. I've come to 99designs to see what you guys are really all about. I want the designers in this competition to have fun, to be creative and if there is something about my colors,design or even what I'm asking for that you think would be better your way, prove it - You're the creatives and I am aware of that.
The core strength of my business is that I am trustworthy and friendly. I'm also easy to talk to and I pride myself in my ability to not only fix problems but to explain the solutions to the clients so that they themselves feel smarter at the end of the appointment instead of perplexed and frustrated.
***I have given feedback to some of these entries that I feel will help all designers understand more of what I'm looking for. Please be sure to look over my comments***
Thank you for all of your hard work.
My ideal client is aged 40 - 65. Typically female head of a household, married. My business is built on referrals more than anything so I hope that my business card will get passed around from one client to the next. I also meet with contractors and consultants from time to time and I want to feel professional when handing these out as well.
You can see my current advertisement on my website http://www.mytechguynj.com
As you can see in my current ad, sometimes I have alternated the colors inside the logo design to stress the pronunciation of the name and to break things up and make them feel fresh.
Feel free to take ANY liberties that you feel will lead to a stronger design. I'm looking for something different but also the design must speak to my ideal client and the strengths of my business.
Please don't worry about matching the card to my current advertisement as that ad is likely to go through some very strong changes as I am not completely happy with it.
One additional item that I'd like included is a design for a small sticker or decal that i can attach to clients computers with my phone number and email address.
I've toyed with the idea of making the card double sided, with my logo large on the back of the card. (feel free to include this)
Please request more information if you think I left anything out.
