Entrepreneur Kid
Entrepreneur Kid is a publication and children's book series about real kid entrepreneurs with real businesses! We profile real kids under the age of 18 who have launched and grown real businesses that solve problems, have customers, and turn profits.
Our audience is parents and aspiring kid entrepreneurs.
Above all, we DO want our logo/brand to feel:
- Fun, kid-like feeling
- Colorful (maybe 2-4 colors), but with the ability to be printed in only one (1) color
- An entrepreneurial spirit
- Young, but sophisticated
- Innovative and new
- Hopeful
- Business-savvy
- Successful
- Credible/established
We DO NOT want the logo to be:
- Too childish
- The stereotypical kid logo (with rockets, books, calculators, atoms)
- Money-obsessed
I'd like to explore the following colors:
Let designers make suggestions:
Below are four illustrations of kid entrepreneurs who we will be writing about in our four-part children's book series. They are a diverse group of entrepreneurs (gender, race/ethnicity, age, and industry) with unique personalities. As you can see, it will be a colorful series. We hope that you can glean insight from the color palette we've used in sketching our entrepreneurs. We'll likely be changing this up to be hues of: Red, yellow, blue, green. The red, yellow, and green are represented here (and the orange depicted in the attached image of the entrepreneur with devices here will be changed to hues of blue).
Also attached is a two-page invitation sent to one of our entrepreneurs, with information about the mission of the book and some insights into our aesthetic.
Finally, you'll see a quick look at some children's logos we like.
