Who We Are: We are a small company that sells a wide variety of supplies to big truck builders, boat builders and many other manufacturers. We sell stuff like nuts and bolts, nylon zip ties, electrical connectors, etc...
To get an idea of what we sell, check out the following:

What We Are Looking For: We want a logo and stationery package that we will be using to build a brand. We will be using the logo extensively both on the web and in print in all sizes. The logo must be able to scale really well in a wide variety of applications and uses.
Desired Style: Since we sell to manufactures and distributors, etc... we are looking for something simple, bold, masculine, clean, etc... NOTHING ARTSY or too wimpy. We need something that will hold its own in a room full hardcore men. We do still need it to be classy. Nothing stupid or unprofessional. We are not looking for a clip art nut and bolt or truck or anything. The typeface is really important here. Readability is key.
We are looking for something a little creative with the type. Maybe something cool with the double r's at the end or really anything. We want it to be simple, but we are paying for more than just a colored typeface. We could do that :) Try and be a little creative.
As far as the letterhead and business cards go, we are looking for simplicity. The following information should be on the business card:
Name: Penny Darr
Title: President
Email: penny@centarr.com
Office: 425-379-5445
Cell: 425-750-0413
Fax: 425-338-3252
Address: 1131 142nd PL SE, Mill Creek, WA 98012
The business cards can be double sided.
Colors: Truth be told, we are really open. We like green and blue and red. Stay away from hard to read colors. Anything upbeat, but not too bright would be fine.
Industry Links and Stuff We Like: Here are some links to our friends in the industry. These sites should give you and idea of the style we are more or less looking for:
http://www.hellermanntyton.us/ We love the simplicity here. Nice easy to read typeface. Very very simple.
http://www.winzerusa.com/ Nice, big, bold and readable.
Don't copy any of these, but they should give you an idea of what we are more or less looking for.
Thats all I think. Please ask any questions that you have. Thanks and good luck!
