The Quick Verdict

How LogoLabs stacks up against Design Agencies in the areas that matter most.

LogoLabs delivers the same file formats, commercial rights, and revision rounds at 90-95% less cost. The deliverables are functionally identical.

LogoLabs delivers in 24-48 hours. Agencies take 4-8 weeks due to meetings, review cycles, and scheduling overhead.

Agencies provide strategic brand consulting, in-person workshops, and comprehensive brand systems. LogoLabs focuses on the logo itself.

Where Your €1,000 Actually Goes

Design Work €250
Meetings €200
Overhead €200
PM €150
Margin €200
25%

Actual Design Work

Research, sketching, digital rendering, revisions. The part that actually creates your logo.

20%

Meetings & Calls

Discovery sessions, progress calls, presentation meetings, revision discussions. Often 4-6 meetings for a single logo.

20%

Office & Tools

Rent, utilities, software licenses, hardware, insurance. Fixed costs that every project must absorb.

15%

Project Management

Account manager, scheduling, client communication, invoicing. Coordination overhead between you and the designer.

LogoLabs eliminates 75% of this cost structure. No meetings, no account managers, no office overhead, no sales team. Your €20-100 goes directly toward producing your logo.

Which One Should You Choose?

There's no universally best option. Here's an honest assessment of who each service is best for.

Choose an Agency if...

  • You need a comprehensive brand identity system, not just a logo
  • You want face-to-face collaboration with a senior designer
  • Your brand requires strategic positioning work alongside the visual identity
  • You have a budget of €1,000+ and want a premium, hands-on experience

Choose LogoLabs if...

  • You need a professional logo without the €500-5,000 agency price tag
  • You want results in days, not weeks (24-48 hours vs 4-8 weeks)
  • You want more concepts to choose from (3-10 vs 2-3)
  • You want a money-back guarantee (agencies rarely offer refunds)
  • You need a logo to launch, not a 6-week branding workshop
