Micro Business Forum is calling for expressions of interest from graphic designers to design our new logo.
Time for a new look
Micro Business Forum (MBF) started as "Home Based Business Club" in 2003. On 8 February 2008, it was called "Home Business Forum" (HBF). Later on, memberships broadened to include micro businesses with less than 5 employees or who are self-employed. HBF was renamed as "Micro Business Forum" (MBF). The rebranding of MBF started on 22 February 2013.
It is time for a new look to reflect our future strategic intent that MBF is Home of Entrepreneurs. MBF is a professional and the friendliest business network in town who pride themselves on providing education, networking and support to both start-ups and established micro-business owners so that they can learn, grow and succeed in their businesses.
Seeking highly-skilled graphic designers from the local area
MBF is seeking expressions of interest from highly skilled Graphic Designers based in the Port Macquarie-Hastings region and who have strong knowledge of typography, color, layout, and image manipulation to create a visually appealing logo and complementary brand element designs that clearly communicate Micro Business Forum's brand to our various audiences.
You will work closely with our marketing representative and committee executive teams to produce engaging design assets for print and digital, ensuring that all deliverables maintain a look and feel that is consistent with our brand.
Use of designs
These designs will be used on all online channels including website, social media, eMail marketing plus all printed materials like business cards, fliers and banners that will promote MBF.
