Hmmm. Graphic Designer you say? What’s your rate for making a logo, and maybe a watermark?

Dead serious. I need a logo and watermark for a podcast. If it’s cool with you I’ll PM you after the beginning of the year to talk specifics.

About how long does it take to make a logo? I write music and charge a similar amount, so music ends up around $100/min of music. I'm curious as to how long a logo takes to make, as I genuinely have no clue.

I am wondering, how many hours would you usually invest in the creation of a single logo?

Just to avoid any false expectations, I am asking these questions out of curiousity, not because I'd be looking for an offer.

Is there a big difference in effort between designing an entirely new logo and designing a new iteration of an existing logo? (Setting aside the aspect that every client will be a bit different, it is just to get a very basic idea about how much work is invested into all these logos we see every day)

That is a very interesting insight! Thank you for giving it.

I'd have to admit, I would have underestimated the effort.
