Priorities

Just to kind of reach out again, I think we need to come to a consensus as to what this company is actually going to be. Right now we are doing tshirts, but it has been suggested that we do more than just that. I think that is an awesome idea, but we need to make sure not to get ahead of ourselves. Also, please join me in trying to get a hold of aj. I don't want him to stay out of the loop about what is going on and have to choose a company name/logo without his input and just make him slave at making shirts with us. So start heckling him with me.

GOALS:

Continuing to say the same thing, everyone should try to comment on this post just what exactly they want this business to be/represent. Are we smooth, are we snarky, are we sly, are we boisterous, are we in someone's face, are we subtle, are we classy, or what? What kind of look do we want?

Currently, I feel we have three genre's of shirts: Geek/nerd(games, sci-fi movies, science), internet, and stylistic abstract. When we get a name and logo I'd like to add shirts that just have our cool logo on it maybe smartly designed or surrounded by cool things.

Post pics or scans of logo ideas and names. Something that will be addressed at meeting.

Finally, email me, or talk about when we can have a skype meeting. I'd like to have everyone together and talk about things. Shane, you should get skype if you dont already have it. You and I will probably just gtalk when we can, but nick does not have that, and needs to use skype.

TIMELINES: I think it is possible for us to conclude brand name/logo, and finish touches on two or three shirts. What I mean is that they have been well drawn, we all agree that they are cool, or at least will sell, and then photoshoop it to pleasing. These designs should be able to put on shirts if we go online outsourcing, or easily shifted to us doing them by hand and looking good over winter break.
So we should be ready to move into working mode by Dec 15th. I would really like to be selling shirts online to kids back at kohler during xmas. Take their money while sympathies are still there and they fear/respect us.

  1. Logo Ideas:

    Asteroid tree?

    I could whip something else up in GIMP with relative ease.

  2. From personal bias I like this idea. I would love it if we could work to make it a little more recognizable/clean. Or maybe we want it to look a little more hand done.
    I was actually thinking of

    Acorn Squash as name/logo. Just to put that up there. I'll have pics hopefully tomorrow.
