Majority of the  consumers get familiar with the logo of a brand before its name because  shoppers rely on their visual instincts when picking up a product from the  shelf. With so many logo fails in the industry, (remember the London 2012 logo  design and the criticism it received?) businesses have grown more cautious and attentive while choosing the right logo design for their business.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top:40px; margin-bottom:40px;\" align=\"center\">\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/logos\/search?utm_source=logo-maker-vs-custom-logo-designers&amp;utm_medium=topbutton&amp;utm_campaign=ctatracking\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"cta-button\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Try Our Logo Maker<\/a><\/div>\n<p>A debate ensues whenever it comes to the  question of whether to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/blog\/professional-designer-or-diy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>hire a professional designer or go DIY<\/strong><\/a> to design a custom  logo for a business. I say choose a logo maker software to design your own. Majority of the people might  disagree with me on this and argue that by designing your own logo you can\u2019t  look professional. Who says you can\u2019t? The objective of looking professional is  to gain trust of your consumers. And you are the best person to do that.<\/p>\n<h2>The Risk Factor<\/h2>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/The-Risk-Factor.jpg\" title=\"The Risk Factor\" alt=\"The Risk Factor\" width=\"600\" height=\"\"><br \/>\nImage: ThinkStock\/IvelinRadkov<\/p>\n<p>Shelling out big bucks to logo designers doesn\u2019t guarantee  that you\u2019ll end up with an amazing custom designed logo for your business.  So why take the risk eh?  If you are really dedicated to your company  and serious to enhance branding then a smart option is to design and create  your very own logo by yourself!<\/p>\n<p>I  have seen plenty of logo disasters of small businesses and even big ones  who made the logo themselves. Don\u2019t let that discourage you though. Did you  know that Google\u2019s co-founder designed its logo so it cost the company nothing!  And we all know about the positive response it has received. This proves you  can design your own logo with the help of so many logo design tutorials  available online.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"font-text1\">Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/blog\/smbs-misconceptions-about-designing-logos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">All that glitters is not gold: Common misconceptions of SMBs about  designing their logos<\/a><\/h3>\n<h2>Explore Your Creativity<\/h2>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.designmantic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/Explore-Your-Creativity.jpg\" title=\"Explore Your Creativity\" alt=\"Explore Your Creativity\" width=\"600\" height=\"\"><br \/>\nImage: ThinkStock\/SergeyNivens<\/p>\n<p>Discover  your creative side by playing with colors, font sizes and designs until you  settle on the perfect one for your company.
