How much should a logo cost?
The right budget depends on what you need. A simple starter logo is a different purchase than a full business identity system.
| Budget range | What you can usually expect | Main risk |
|---|---|---|
| Very low budget | Fast starter work, limited refinement, fewer deliverables. | Generic results or missing source files. |
| Mid budget | Better communication, more revisions, more tailored work. | Still depends heavily on brief quality. |
| Higher budget | More strategic thinking, better systems, broader deliverables. | Overbuying if you only needed something simple. |
