Please help. I am going to design a logo for my new company. What program will work best?

I have Publisher 2000 so it needs to be able to work with that. The manufacturer uses Publisher. I am not a designer by any stretch of the imagination. Please help me find a program that will “design it for me”.

If you don’t mind, please keep the cost down. I’m starting a company and put most of the budget into manufacturing my formula. (I will spend up to for the right program.)

I am also going to design the label on the bottle. The manufacturer will fill in all the required supplement information. I just have to design the “pretty part” of the label. I have to put my logo on it and the product name. It has to look great. This is my one shot. I have an amazing product, but if the label doesn’t look good, no one will want it.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this very important matter. It really means a great deal to me.

    This sort of question is what a designer hates to read. You can check at office depot or staples, might have some sort of label designing software for cheap but please keep in mind that professional design software costs hundreds of dollars and professional designers charge thousands of dollars to create logos and labels. I might be interested in helping you out if you wish to contact me.

    Kelli,
    the best program to design a logo is Adobe Illustrator (or any other vector-based program for that matter). Unfortunately, it will cost you a lot more to buy it (at least $300) and then spend time figuring it out on your own trying to come up with a decent looking logo. My honest advise though is to leave it up to a professional. There are so many marketing and design agencies out there that can design a logo for as low as $50 (even more of these services are available over the Internet). You are absolutely right- it needs to look professional because your logo may be the only thing a client will remember about your company. It should represent the best qualities/ benefits of your product.
    Good luck!

    I use AutoCAD to do this type of thing… mainly because I’m very good at it. I like AutoCAD because you can do your design in 3d if you want and make minor changes until you get what you want.
