LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT US:

We are a software development firm located in San Diego, CA. We are getting ready to release web-based mobile meeting software that will place us adjacent to companies like CISCOS Web Ex, Fuze Meeting, and GoToMeetings.

HERE IS WHAT WE NEED:

We need a Logo to use for all product branding. Our software will be used in a cloud hosted internet interface as well as being translated and used on all major smart phones. The Logo should convey many aspects of the Samurai while still being professional and non-violent. The idea being that our software will help you to become a master of your meetings.

OUR TARGET AUDIENCE IS:

Working professionals between the ages of 21-80

WE LIKE THESE EXAMPLES:

Some words, phrases and ideas we have that should help you to get a sense of what we are looking for:

The Samurai has: Power, Control, Leadership, Respect, Sophistication & Calmness (Japanese Tea Ceremony). We want to emphasize power that doesn't have to be exercised because people respect the samurai too much (not fear based). Non-Violent - this is for professional meeting software - Walk softly but carry a big stick

The Software is for meetings where people are in attendance together. So it conjures groups of people sitting around a conference table, or a facilitator at the front of a large group of people. These kids of settings bring the meeting aspect into focus.

The software will highlight:

being on time at start of meeting / ending mtg on time (dont piss the samurai off)come prepareddont hog the conversation / everyone participates - dont hidebeing accountable - followup on all action items from last mtgdealing with conflict / dont drive it underground / deal with it in the open get to a better decision by getting all ideas vetted / make evidence based (not emotion based) decisions

WE ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE THIS IN OUR PIECE:

Be original and creative, we have no set expectations and are still working with the idea ourselves..... Please dont copy anything from a current online meeting corporation, while we will be in the same market we will not be competing directly with them and want to be seen as something different.
