Target Audience:
Many factors shall come into play at this point. For example your specific niche in what your company deals; the age group of your customers, social and economic strata of your audience.

Use of Colors and Graphics:
Green goes well with nature; Stars are meant for Solar System; Binary works well with digital space. Experiment with thousands of colors and shades before you select your final one. You cannot change your color scheme too often especially for your company logo. This will establish your company’s brand identity.  Be mindful while crafting theme for your logo. Experiment before the world sees and start recognizing your brand in a certain color and picture patterns.
Visibility Medium:
How will people see your logo; through a website or blog / TV News or YouTube Video / Newspaper or Magazine advertisement or business cards? A picture looking awesome in one medium may look terrible in another medium. Brainstorm before you toss the image in front of those rolling eyes. Beauty wins hearts, so does your logo. It should be worth to watch for.
Brainstorm with your logo designer before printing a picture as your company logo. A winning picture will have the potential to win more customers for you.
