| The
use of logos as a business tool dates back as far as ancient
Greece. Maybe, even further back than this. Traders and merchants
initially used them so that they would be easily recognized.
Today they have a similar meaning. Logos have also been used
extensively in the past on trademarks. If we go back as far
as the 13th Century we will see that many trademarks from
noble trades such as Gold Smiths, Paper Makers, Printers and
even the Nobility of the time were used to state quality of
merchandise or just plain quality. The logo was usually stamped
on to the product or displayed as a watermark. Today a trademark
or business logo is used as the pinnacle of your business.
It says everything about your company. It says that you belong
in the corporate world and in that world you have an identity
and that identity represents quality. It would be infeasible
for instance to imagine the likes of Coca-Cola with out it's
instantly recognized logo. This is what every company is striving
for. Instant recognition in it's field of expertise.The Logo
