CASE STUDY

OLD LOGO

THE PROBLEM

We felt like this logo did not fit us as we were growing as a business. We are looking to start putting our logo on clothing items. We felt like this was more of a cartoonish logo for only the young athletes.  We knew we were entering a new market so we wanted to start attracting adults to buy our product. We had a good pacing system but knew we didn’t want to Price Match with other training services when it came to the clothing. So we knew we needed a more Professional logo. We also knew when it came to promotion from sponsorship  they were going to need a back story on why do we feel so special about our brand. So we needed to feel confident in our logo and were going to have to face public relation activities when it came to promoting our brand.  I hate the world is like this but we had a parent one time ask us “Why does the guy have to be black in your logo?” I’m pretty sure it was just a petty act on their part mainly because we are 3 young black man who started this business by training at local fields to owning the 2nd biggest athletic training facility in our city. Who cares, that was a for sure signed that we needed another logo.We have a great location for expanding to a different market. Serval Distribution stores reached out as soon as they knew we wanted to start selling clothing items. We are a family brand so we wanted the people to feel like they were apart of something more than a training service. 

NEW LOGO

THE SOLUTION

Our athletes and parents  refer to our business as “PK” They do not say the full words “Perfect Kraft” so it is a connection with them.  I have not heard of to many others things that are in reference to the letters ‘PK.” I believe it is a very unique design, that is also the only lighting bolt symbol create that specific way out of all the lightning bolts created, you will not find another one like it is created in this logo.  It bring an energetic feeling once you see those two letters and the lighting bolt.  Our athletes and parents take pride in this logo. We also advertise the full spelling of our company name on video  sometimes as some people who is not familiar with our business will know what it means. AS SEEN IN THE IMAGE BELOW.
