<p>First off, thank you all for the hard work and amazing designs!</p><p>I have added $100 on the reward and have extended the contest an extra 7 days.&nbsp;</p><p>I am downgrading the designs one star each, example: logos ranked with 3 stars will get a 2 star rank.&nbsp;</p><p>The reason I am doing this is because I need to free up the 4 and 5 star rated categories.&nbsp;</p><p>After seeing so many designs I know for sure that the "STARTUP" should be emphasized over the "SMART UP FOR THE".&nbsp;</p><p>I like the symbols so far. Arrows, rockets, brain, star, glasses, gear, etc.&nbsp;</p><p>More than one symbol per design is not something that I have really liked.</p><p>Also, please do not copy any other ideas unless you have something that is really great.&nbsp;</p><p>This book targets the startup community, it has to be simple and professional.</p><p>Please do no delete any entries either.&nbsp;</p><p>Please submit the design on a book cover and maybe another form of use so I have an idea of what it would look like on different environments.&nbsp;</p><p>I would like to give you all one more opportunity to submit an idea.&nbsp;</p><p>I look forward to some more amazing designs. Thank you all again!</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

The design should have the following

<p>I need the design to be simple and to the point. Startup business owners are our target. I need a clean and simple design. I would also like a symbol that is possibly integrated with one of the letters of the title "SMART UP FOR THE STARTUP". The symbol would be used on a plethora of other products.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I would like to see cleverly embedded symbols within the name or next the the name. Symbols such as arrow, lightning bolt, rocket, brain, pair of glasses, light build, light ray/beam, gears etc. </p><p><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">Please take a look at the&nbsp;</span>deigns<span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">&nbsp;I rate a 4-5 stars before&nbsp;</span>creating<span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">&nbsp;a design. I am&nbsp;</span>looking<span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">&nbsp;for&nbsp;</span>uniqueness and something very clever. Please be as clever and creative as possible.<span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">&nbsp;</span><br></p><p><br></p><p>Please read all of the fields of descriptions to get a full understanding of what I am looking for. I have attached some symbols that catch my eye, some white board drawings of what I am thinking about, a few designs that I commissioned a designer to create, and a cover from the book "BUILDING A STORY BRAND" which is a book cover that I admire greatly.&nbsp;</p><p>Lastly, I have posted an image of a logo style that has been used a lot. I would like to see other styles that this style only. Thank you all for the hard work!</p>
