Step 1

The Conceptual Minds team started by getting to know the Wiygul family and their organization.

This allowed us to understand exactly how the Wiyguls wanted to be remembered by their customers and the type of logo that would be ideal to help shape that impression.

Our savvy design team created several logo versions for the Wiygul Automotive Clinic team to react to and select based on our initial assessment and the goals we came up with together.
