Thank you so much for the amazing support! Honored to finally give back the love to this amazing design community! Planning to do a lot more in the future so I would really appreciate your LIKES/SHARES and Channel Subscriptions! Jeroen
I am super grateful for this. Have always loved seeing your projects on behance and LinkedIn and super super love your micro style guide. Is there a specific format to it or you go with what you feel at a moment? Because I notice you sometimes change it on your dribbble? I find them super helpful and looking forward to incorporating them in my process and designs.
Hoi Jeroen, ik kwam via een artikel in Medium op jouw kanaal. Ik ben bij toeval terecht gekomen in het logodesign. Heel blij met je bijdrage op het net. Dank je wel.
I know you in my national design magazine! I searched you in google, youtube and followed you instagram. I am also working as a freelance, you're my best teacher!
Super happy to hear about that! These steps would benefit you as a freelancer very well. You can always switch or skip steps which don't work for you. But in general these steps are a perfect guideline for a successful project.
I love how simple the video is and more direct into the content, no big fancy effects just straightforward! can you teach us more about Grids and style guides? Thank you :)
Thank you! It took me some time to finally get it like this, but I really love the feel of a micro style guide which helps me bring over a specific concept. All in just one image/shot. :)
Thank you do much! Super happy to hear that from you! I will sure continue and do my best to talk trough more insight subjects for designers and freelancers specifically.
Adolfo Teixeira thank buddy! Exactly what I felt when starting out and so this video was created to make life for starting freelancers (and perhaps also more experienced) much easier. It’s good to follow design principles and take steps which leads to a specific result. Eventually the creative mind plays a big role in this part as well. But it’s sure a great guidance to start from I would say.
Amazing video! Every step was well thought out and your presentation made it feel like I was taking a personal class. I hope to see more of your videos in the future!
Herbert Neves thank you so much! I never shared this much of my process and it’s really scary too haha. But in the end it’s all about passion and pushing the limits to become a better designer. This is something all designers should know about.
i learned a lot from this short video, well done. and for the next video i wish i you could take us through all this plugins you have there and tell us more about the tools you use and what fasten your work flow
Thank you! Yeah, only things which is missing may be the individual skillset of the designer and their creativity expansion. So many more ways I could talk about on how I come up with specific and slightly different concepts lately. Excited to put myself out here a bit more and give back to the design community!
Hey Jeroen--thanks so much! With all the Coronavirus craziness everywhere (I am in NYC) we are teaching completely online now. I am going to show your video in the first online session of my portfolio class at Bronx Community College. Thanks so much!
summary is a noun, and "summery" is an adjective, but they sound alike and both describe something short. A summer feels like a short piece of a long year, and a is a short statement about a longer piece.
Really awesome video! Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Looking forward to future uploads! Also, that plugin at the end blew my mind! 🤯
When I started out as a freelance logo designer, this specific video I always wanted to see from a designer I would admire. So happy to finally had the courage to make this video and I believe this is very valuable for any starting freelancer in the creative industry. Super excited to hear those kind words from you. Please subscribe and hit that alarm bell for any new videos. I would really appreciate your support so I can reach a bigger audience on this platform as well. Take care and thank you so much!
@@jeroendesign Sure, I've just subscribed! Thank you for taking the time to answer my comment, I really appreciate it. I'm having so much fun discovering this creative world, let's see where it takes me. Keep it up with the good content on your channel, I'll be looking forward for your new videos ;) Best!
Thank you very much! I will! Soon there will also be more logo tutorials! Perhaps also includes some of the great illustrator plugins thats ive been using over the years to create a better and more efficient workflow.
How come I feel that this video is more quality than your Pro Lecture selling course? I hope to hear more from your mindset about determined how to put the sketch one in the right (customed) grid template. And how to execute more complicated rhythm, curved, and microelement in the more complex grid and logo concept. Along with the color gradient work, and other types of typeface as well not only geometry type. Wish to see more deeply and thoughtful content in your next course update. Or even a brand new Pro Lecture.
Thank you, Jeroen for sharing all this. I learn a lot from you. I always have difficulty with creating custom and detailed brand guidelines. Would you please consider making a video on the custom brand guideline. I would really appreciate that.
Great video learn alot. Please make more of these and also i have one request if possible kindly share your mind mapping and moodboarding process and one more thing what advice you will give to a new logo designer Thankyou again for this amazing video.
Thank you so much Jhonny! I will note every tip suggestions which are being made here for sure. Although colour theory I often don't get much into as I have different ways to find best colour directions for my clients. Perhaps now I think about this, might be a good thing to list this on my 'next video board' as a potential subject. Thank you for your support! :)
Great video! Very insightful! Can you please shoot another on your plugins? There are so many. And also on how you construct these awesome grids that we see on your shots? Thank you for your content, man!
Sergey Savushkin hey Sergey! Thank you so much! Happy to hear about that and I’d be happy to get more into the plugins I’ve been using. Also the grids can be soooo fun to get more into for sure! Make sure to subscribe and hit that alarm bell so you get a ping once I post something new. 💪🏻
Hello there... Thank you so much for your easy and creative tutorials. I have a question about the designing process. Would you follow the Golden Ratio when you measure a circle in the gride to draw a design? Recently I have started to view your tutorials. It's nice and helpful. Just keep it up!! Best of luck 👍
I really liked the video, it was so useful !! . I hope you continue in such videos and it will be fantastic if you make videos that talk deeply about the way you thinking when you design a logo, also how to choose colors and when you decide to use -for example- mono color or gradient ! Thanks a lot :)
Hello my friend, thank you very much for this valuable information❤️❤️. Can you show us the professional way to present the presentation logo to the customer?
Hi! Loved the video, explains everything so clearly thank you. Is it possible for you to show your presentation images next time (not just the mini one)? Also that plugin, I have to get it!
Thank you! Yeah, that plugin is pure fire! See for a link to that plugin below the video. I would strongly suggest to buy that and start using that asap. Will share more on the actual presentation files later as well. Tried to keep things briefly and clear for now. But thats actually a nice and interesting path to dive into very soon. Thanks again!
Dude, your camera is awesome! I see by your beard that we are the same age. 37? :P Nice video, keep up the good work! You encourage me to speak more freely! I have a few questions. 1. Do you build complex brand guidelines or just logo guidelines? 2. How many concepts do you show to the client? 3. Do you include color & type exploration in the initial presentation or later in the project? 4. Do you work on something else except logo and branding? And a theme suggestion for future videos, "how to build a client base". Cheers
dbworkplay haha. Seems so sharp it made me look.. OLDER?! Haha. Since my 20th I already started to get grey hair in my beard. I’m currently 33 by the way ;) 1. I often create more complex brand guidelines although I can count the many on two hands. So mostly I deliver 3-4 page style guides to only focus on logo design part, color and typography. 2. I usually work with concept rounds from 3-5 rounds. In each round there will be x-amount of concepts shared depending the project and budget of the client. 3. Yes, I focus on colors and typography as well. Makes it a full pack to use (also ui) and implement in a website for example. 4. Mostly 80% I focus on logo (re)design only. And to be honest, this is also my strongest skill and where people know me for. Other 20% is illustration work, mural (illustrations), icon design and sometimes poster designs. But I mostly enjoy the logo part as that’s always been my biggest passion too :) I’ll consider your suggestion for a next topic. Thank you!
That was a great first video, I learnt a lot of things so thank you :) I don't use plugins with Illustrator but it looks like I definitely should! I need to find a list of useful plugins. I have several questions ahah: Setting up the logo grid: I have no clue how to set it up to get a good balance… I guess it's mostly a feeling? Do you have any recommendation? Font choice: I'm always struggling picking the right font and I'm mostly going on Google font and have a look. I'm picking a serif or sans-serif, rounded, bold or thinn depending of the brand. How do you proceed? Colours: depending of the target, type of industry/entity and their core values, I'm looking at swatches on the web, how do you proceed to pick your colours like at 10:51 ? Those colours are great. I feel like I'm lacking of basic "art" and "design" knowledge, but I don't know where I can teach myself these. I'm definitely subscribing and looking forward to your next videos. Cheers!
1) Want to see video about logo quality: when and how need to make a logo (icon and font) pixel perfect, info about using grids. 2) Then video about logo preparing files (without package express): how to determine logo size for website, which format better for correct high-quality look (png, svg) and etc. 3) How and where searching clients for beginners and intermediate designers. Which platform better for searching and getting clients. P.S. Or maybe you know good articles/videos about first two questions.
Holy smokes, logo package express. bought without even reading the site details. This is the worst part of the logo process!!! Love your work. Save 33% with code "home" while everyones is stuck at home
Jeroen, what should I do if the offline human engagement research 5:35 doesn't work in my city? Because of the most percentages of people in my city are savage drunkards or alcoholics, I wouldn't never-ever rely on their opinion. Because of the country located near Russia, and the country inherited the Soviet past. Can I do online internationally instead of local offline? Thank you!
you are really amazing designer also good man... how can i follow in dribbble or instagram or others platform for get design inspiration from u? cause i don't get any link in here. Thanks man.
Hello Jeroen, I've been a big fan of your work for a very long time and I've always wanted to see the process of your work. Thanks for putting this out. I'm currently struggling with making perfect grid logos. Do you have any resources you can suggest? Also, how did you master illustrator so well?
Don't skip the sketching step! I suppose a seasoned designer can go right to Illustrator, but for all you youngsters out there, start with pencil and paper.
Gretchen Wieshuber thank you for your comment and feedback. I mentioned that I sometimes skip this step because that’s not always needed for me. Indeed for starting designers that’s really important to do because it’s part of the basic steps to start a project.
Rachid Eljid thank you! This always depends on how a client reach out to me. But in first I often receive an email first and next steps start from there. Most of the times I stay in touch via Skype and email. Sometimes when a client is local I got to actually see them 😜
@@jeroendesign Hi, firstly, I want to say that your work is fantastastic and you are truly an incredible inspiration for beginners like me. Now, talking about how you maintain contact with clients, I have a question: how do I, in the first place, can get clients from other cities / countries? And thank you, beforehand :)
I wish I could do that but I put my client works first for now. Perhaps when I produce income with this channel one day that would be more ideal. But really motivated and buzzing to work on a new video soon!
Hey Jeroen! When it comes to timescale, how do you communicate with your clients the length of time it will take? Or do you just give them a rough idea?
Oliver Swinburne I always negotiate about timelines and if there are crucial deadlines/milestones to be made. 70% of all projects clients let me take the lead on time management but expect a project delivery within 3-5 weeks averagely. Sometimes it could take longer but it’s also depends a project complexity and total requirements. After discussing the project brief I can always mention a rough indication, but I often feel creativity can’t be pushed. So always give an estimate timeline, but a flexible deadline would be ideal for this type of work.
I've been designing logos for years but I really enjoyed your presentation. There's always something new to learn and think about! Where can I find the app Logo Package Express? That's amazing! Oh! I also loved seeing that you sketch on gridded paper. That makes it much easier to draw things on a grid. I've always used tracing paper, now I think I'll use both!
Linda Winsbro thank you so much Linda! There’s a link for that plugin below the video or via this: gumroad.com/a/1008448627 and use the promo code “home” to give you a 33% discount. 🤓
My only dobt is if i got 50 percent advance and done a logo for a client and if i have sent normal file to him of his logo after Seeing it if he says no idint like return the pay what we must do return full advance or full advance ..and then if he recreates our sent logo design through another designer what we must do pls say
Do you work with a formal signed contract and standard terms and conditions? I understand that it feels safer to let clients pay in advance, especially when working for foreign clients online. But when your client is a known Dutch company and they have signed a contract, don't you trust them to pay the agreed price after you've sent them your invoice?
Wuppie62 I believe this down payment is part of all client collaborations and needs to be taken strictly. To be honest, most of the times I do not work with contracts but have clear agreements (written via email contacts etc) that a downpayment I required always. As I often have multiple projects ongoing, I don’t want to risk to waste my time in starting to work for a new client and later find out they will pause a project or cancel it. To have a downpayment been done (I always do 50% upfront and 50% when design is approved) they secure my time and know I’ll set their time/project on priority as well.
Justin Vajko I can start over or analyze how close they are and decide if it’s a concern or not. Also could depend if they are active in a same industry etc.
Thank you so much for the amazing support! Honored to finally give back the love to this amazing design community! Planning to do a lot more in the future so I would really appreciate your LIKES/SHARES and Channel Subscriptions! Jeroen

Brilliant! Thankyou!
summary is a noun, and "summery" is an adjective, but they sound alike and both describe something short. A summer feels like a short piece of a long year, and a is a short statement about a longer piece.

Rachid Eljid thank you! This always depends on how a client reach out to me. But in first I often receive an email first and next steps start from there. Most of the times I stay in touch via Skype and email. Sometimes when a client is local I got to actually see them 😜
@@jeroendesign Hi, firstly, I want to say that your work is fantastastic and you are truly an incredible inspiration for beginners like me. Now, talking about how you maintain contact with clients, I have a question: how do I, in the first place, can get clients from other cities / countries? And thank you, beforehand :)
i hope you upload everyday please haha 😅👍
I wish I could do that but I put my client works first for now. Perhaps when I produce income with this channel one day that would be more ideal. But really motivated and buzzing to work on a new video soon!
Hey Jeroen! When it comes to timescale, how do you communicate with your clients the length of time it will take? Or do you just give them a rough idea?
Oliver Swinburne I always negotiate about timelines and if there are crucial deadlines/milestones to be made. 70% of all projects clients let me take the lead on time management but expect a project delivery within 3-5 weeks averagely. Sometimes it could take longer but it’s also depends a project complexity and total requirements. After discussing the project brief I can always mention a rough indication, but I often feel creativity can’t be pushed. So always give an estimate timeline, but a flexible deadline would be ideal for this type of work.
Thanks Jeroen, how do you deal with payments?
Can you please make videos in presentation?
I've been designing logos for years but I really enjoyed your presentation. There's always something new to learn and think about! Where can I find the app Logo Package Express? That's amazing! Oh! I also loved seeing that you sketch on gridded paper. That makes it much easier to draw things on a grid. I've always used tracing paper, now I think I'll use both!
Linda Winsbro thank you so much Linda! There’s a link for that plugin below the video or via this: gumroad.com/a/1008448627 and use the promo code “home” to give you a 33% discount. 🤓
My only dobt is if i got 50 percent advance and done a logo for a client and if i have sent normal file to him of his logo after Seeing it if he says no idint like return the pay what we must do return full advance or full advance ..and then if he recreates our sent logo design through another designer what we must do pls say
Do you work with a formal signed contract and standard terms and conditions?
I understand that it feels safer to let clients pay in advance, especially when working for foreign clients online. But when your client is a known Dutch company and they have signed a contract, don't you trust them to pay the agreed price after you've sent them your invoice?
Wuppie62 I believe this down payment is part of all client collaborations and needs to be taken strictly. To be honest, most of the times I do not work with contracts but have clear agreements (written via email contacts etc) that a downpayment I required always. As I often have multiple projects ongoing, I don’t want to risk to waste my time in starting to work for a new client and later find out they will pause a project or cancel it. To have a downpayment been done (I always do 50% upfront and 50% when design is approved) they secure my time and know I’ll set their time/project on priority as well.
Are you have behance ?
For meduim level. How do i get work?
How do charge for a logo
Loving the Dutch accent 😂
What happens when you discover a concept is too close to something out there already?
Justin Vajko I can start over or analyze how close they are and decide if it’s a concern or not. Also could depend if they are active in a same industry etc.
music??????
THIER DESIGN GRAPHIST check captions. I included the music in there ✌🏻
Can I still ask questions?
Yes you can! :)
