KILLER APP NEEDS KICK AS- LOGO

CertiCall

We're a team of successful entrepreneurs w/ notable accomplishments in the Internet & interactive services markets. We've developed a patented telephone application that "certifies" a phone call; similar to a "certified letter" sent through mail. Certicall authenticates the parties (checks participants are who they say they are), records, archives, transcribes,& certifies phone conversations between two consenting parties, and allows for the conversation to become a binding agreement if desired. The caller can retrieve the call & listen back to the conversation at any time by phone or web. Some of our tag lines & concepts: "Certicall, transforming what a phone call can do"....."confirming your commitments", "revolutionizing the way business is conducted", "Certicall, your word is your deed." We envision both professionals and consumers being able to make verbal agreements on their smart phones while on the beach or anywhere on the go. It is eco-friendly because it's paperless (although that's not the main focus) and will ease the burden of needing to write up contracts. Key words: Authentication, Convenient, Secure, Certified, Trusted, Verified, Digital, Efficient, Eco-friendly, Mobile, Simple, Powerful. As a group we're modern, forward thinking, like to have fun, and can't wait to get a powerful logo to match our concept!

Anyone who wants to memorialize a telephone conversation. Doctors, Lawyers, Educators, Divorced couples needing proof of conversations! Even in everyday phone conversations, think of the last time you had a phone call that turned out bad and ruined your day, and you wished you could recall that phone call, or had proof of what was said. The target audience would be male and female 20-60 years old, both professional and consumer, business and personal calls too, so the logo must be universally appealing. Anyone who wants to "take control of their phone communications", by making binding transactions over the phone.

I'm totally open to the creative process! I love the trendy type of sequential style logos that have color, gradients & translucency (as seen on logolounge.com attch'd)& also styles with light and dimension. I'm not into conservative logos like Bank of America. I'm partial to either iconic/ symbolic/ brandmark logos but am open to a wordmark logo if appealing. It should feel friendly and approachable but professional. Use ".com" or not. No cartoons, please. We want an enduring brand & professional seal/watermark of authenticity. I'm trying to capture a feeling of "enhancing the certainty" of a phone call or showing how powerful a simple telephone conversation can be once it's certified. Maybe digital efficiency too. It can include a tag line or not. My current website is in Wordpress (Screenshot attached). I think the blues/greens combined with black is eye catching. I like something that pops! The logo should look good against a light or dark background, grey shades,and on the web too. I'll need orignal vector format, ai, jpeg or eps and all modern formats required for web, print, letterhead, business cards, etc. that will resize well and maintain high resolution. I'm not keen on checkmarks and please no clipart or stock images. I'm looking for original designs that convey some of our keywords and concepts. I will be involved the entire way and will provide feedback as needed.
