If you are looking for a good logo design along with a few other services like stationary design and web design, For Logo Design might be the best there is! Not only did they provide me with a great new logo, they surprised me with their customized additional stationary and web page all at an affordable price. At first, I was doubtful and thought that they might just design a logo and stick it everywhere whether it’s business cards or pencils but for every stationary item, they altered and scaled the design so that it fit and looked great! Will definitely keep your excellent service in mind for the future!
