Publicity materials<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Your logo lets church members know who the event is for as well as who is hosting the event. (It can be rather awkward when men show up at a women&#8217;s ministry event &#8211; trust me! I know!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Visibility and Consistency<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Your logo connects all the materials (publicity, program, notecards, t-shirts, mugs, etc.) that your ministry distributes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Professionalism<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Successful corporations do a lot of things well \u2013 branding is one of them. Who doesn\u2019t recognize the Nike swoosh?! Logos communicate you\u2019ve got your act together and you have a plan (even when you don\u2019t!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Community<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Your logo gives women the sense that they belong to something. Who doesn\u2019t want to fill included? Think of all the other places women join the Y, Bootcamps, and community groups \u2013 many of them have logos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Now that we established the need, let\u2019s talk specifics.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>How do you make one?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What should it look like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can I just copy something I find when I \u201cGoogle\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I&#8217;ll answer all those questions and a lot more below. Stay with me!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also notice I\u2019ve found a bunch of great women\u2019s ministry logos to inspire you \u2013 35 in all! <em>Just don\u2019t miss the notes on copyright laws in #2!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8 Tips for Designing Your Ministry\u2019s Logo<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Pray<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask God for guidance. Ask Him to lead your brainstorming session. Talk with your team about what it is you want to communicate in your logo. Is your focus studying God\u2019s Word? Maybe it\u2019s discipleship? <strong>Your ministry\u2019s logo should communicate your ministry\u2019s identity.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Copyright laws<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>While I am not a lawyer, I\u2019ve spend a lot of time researching the proper use of logos and images for this site so I don\u2019t get surprised with a letter from lawyer demanding I pay a fine or be forced to go to court. (Yes \u2013 this really does happen!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a church has paid a designer to create a logo for them, that logo is the property of the designer and the church has purchased the rights to use it. If the church has purchased the image you would also need to purchase the image for your church to use it. If the image was downloaded for free from a reputable site that offers free images, you should be okay, but still read the fine print of the usage license. If you see something another church is using that you really like contact them and find out where\/how their logo was created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google-ing &#8220;free images&#8221; does NOT guarantee that those images are free of copyright protection. I know someone who got one of those threatening letters after innocently using a &#8220;free&#8221; image they had found on Google. Please, please do not that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Usage<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>What will you use the logo for? There\u2019s printed advertising, social media, and merchandise (tote bags, pens, cups, etc.) to consider. I suggest formatting the logo in as many different ways as possible. You might want to use it as a watermark on a photo you share on social media. A black version or a white version can be helpful depending on the background you\u2019re putting the logo on. Are you going to make embroidered t-shirts or bags with the logo? Maybe you&#8217;ll want to order some customized travel mugs from&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shareasale.com\/r.cfm?b=770492&amp;u=908706&amp;m=61323&amp;urllink=&amp;afftrack=\">Positive Promotions<\/a>&nbsp;(affiliate link). You want to get at least a JPG, PNG, and SVG file.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1100\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7972\" srcset=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos.png 1100w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos-300x191.png 300w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos-1024x652.png 1024w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos-768x489.png 768w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos-640x407.png 640w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Womens-Ministry-Logos-700x445.png 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Style<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about the logos everyone knows \u2013 Nike and McDonalds for example. Just like they do, keep it simple. You\u2019re going to want your logo to look fresh and up-to-date for the next several years. Clean, classic lines. Think graphic, not artistic. It will be much easier to print a simple, clean design than one that is extremely detailed \u2013 especially on any promotional materials you may choose to purchase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to choose something that will appeal to a wide range of women. When we created our new logo in Kentucky we specifically stayed away from graphics that were super-girly. We didn\u2019t want lipstick or high heels. We wanted something a touch feminine, but not over the top. Decide if you want letters, an image, or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Branding<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Your church may already have a set font and color scheme that you will be required to use. Ask before doing a lot of work that won\u2019t be approved. Let your Pastor know your team is looking to create a new logo \u2013 they may have resources or guidelines that they will share with you. Even if your church hasn\u2019t embraced the idea of branding across all ministries, it\u2019s still a very good idea to have your logo compliment the church logo (unless it\u2019s outdated or will be changed anytime soon).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Hire a Designer<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re blessed to have a great graphic designer on staff then by all means use them! If not consider <a href=\"http:\/\/tracking.fiverr.com\/aff_c?offer_id=1712&amp;aff_id=25285\">fiverr.com<\/a>&nbsp;(affiliate link).&nbsp;You can work with a designer to create a logo starting at just $5. Expect to pay extra to have the logo in multiple formats and do purchase those! See #3 for file types you&#8217;ll want to purchase. You&#8217;ll also want to know the exact color (often a code)&nbsp;and fonts they used so you can replicate them in other parts of your publicity. Hiring a designer helps to ensure your logo is unique and doesn&#8217;t look just like the logo at the church down the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7971\" src=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1100\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos.png 1100w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos-300x191.png 300w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos-1024x652.png 1024w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos-768x489.png 768w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos-640x407.png 640w, https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/More-Womens-Ministry-Logos-700x445.png 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/>7. Tag lines<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>You may wish to have a tag line. However, your ministry should be recognizable without it. Tag lines need to be strong, clear, and short. Taglines should reflect your ministry\u2019s mission statement. Tag lines shouldn\u2019t be a sentence. They can even be two or three separate words \u2013 IE Love \u2013 Serve \u2013 Learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Get approval<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Get approval from your entire team before presenting it to your church staff. You may want to even show it to a few non-church friends to see what they think. What may seem obvious to you may not be so for others. Where you may see a flower, they might see something else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What other questions do you have about designing a logo for your ministry?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Resources to Investigate:<br><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/tracking.fiverr.com\/aff_c?offer_id=1712&amp;aff_id=25285\">Fiverr<\/a>&nbsp;(Affiliate Link)<strong><br><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stockunlimited.com\/#eyJpZCI6IjI2OTQwIn0\">Stock Unlimited<\/a> (Referral Link)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.graphicsprings.com\/category\/religious\">Free Religious Logos<\/a> &#8211; &nbsp;Also offers custom designs for a small fee.<br><a href=\"http:\/\/hello.ekklesia360.com\/blog\/8-key-tips-pros-use-when-designing-a-church-logo\">8 Key Tips Pros Use when Designing a Church Logo<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You may also want to read:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/mission-statement\/\">Your Mission Statement<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/publicity-form-free-printable\/\">Publicity Form (Free Printable)<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/updating-publicity\/\">Updating Your Publicity<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/womensministrytoolbox.com\/publicity-checklist\/\">Publicity Checklist<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently I had a leader email me with some questions about selecting a new logo for their women\u2019s ministry.
