Have you ever finished a logo that you thought was high quality for a client, only to have it rejected? I know I have! That’s what happened with the Taconic Valley logo that you see above. The good news is, just because it didn’t fit with your client’s needs, doesn’t mean it can’t be perfect for someone else. It’s that principle that has led to the creation of logo branding sites like IncSpring.

IncSpring is a beautifully designed social site where you can buy or sell a brand. This is fantastic news for graphic designers like me. Another awesome reason to visit IncSpring is to be inspired by the quality design that is being shown; most of the logos there are gorgeous. You can also meet other designers on the site, leave comments and rate their work.

You can check out my logo for sale on the site. I’d love to hear what you think. Drop me a comment here or there, your opinions really help me improve as a designer!

    some people can be very picky about what they want, all depends how much there paying for a design, then time can be dedicated to it over other things if there paying a decent price, when im designing i never try to get my hopes up, i put in my effort but sometimes the results are not as desired but working with a client can help ammend designs to how they want them which can also be time consuming. i work to the saying giv’em what they want haha.

    just i few things i was thinking while reading

    Thanks for the comment Max. I agree, you definitely can’t let a rejected logo knock you down. It comes with the territory. And it usually only makes you a better designer in the long run. Plus with sites like IncSpring, it may be even more profitable!

    Wow, this is such a great idea. I think it’s been done before where you can sell unwanted graphics, but this looks more promising. Nice find!
