$215. WorldHealingCircles.com

The website is to Heal Hate Worldwide and Heal the Individual Participants at the same time.

In 1993 4,000 Transcendental Meditators lowered violent crime in Washington, DC by a fraction over 23%. And created similar results in 25 other cities and 2 countries at war.

Dr Bruce Lipton's Research discovered stress caused 95%+ of all illness. In the year 2,000, Dr Alex Loyd discovered a solution for his wife's clinical depression, with unanticipated healing benefits.

Help launch a worldwide program to Heal the Hate driving War, Murder and Greed... And at the same time, our members can Heal the Stress in their own Lives and Reactivate the Greatest Healing System in the World & we were born with it.

We will be using concepts from Quantum Physics with some pretty dramatic evidence to create fields and individual self help training which will provide tools to heal the world and each individual participant.

If someone were to send me an example of a helpful description, I will use it a s a model to create a more useful summary for you.

Hello,

If you'll fill out the form located here (copy and paste it back to this thread), that will give us the information we need:

Thanks! :)

Project Summary:
What text should be included in the main part of the logo?

I don't know.
But WorldHealingCircles.com is definitely acceptable.


What type of product or service do you offer?

It will be a membership program. Participants will participate daily or as they choose with our online instructed self-healing technology which they will use on themselves and for others.

They will also receive training they can use anytime, anywhere on their own.

They will receive an immediate download via the internet followed by a physical package with a manual and DVD.

We will also provide training about the value of individual freedom, personal responsibility and how they work.

There is no long term solution to hate when power addictions control way too much of our lives.


How long have you been in business?

I am leaving TheHealingCode.com to start my own company. I was director of sales, marketing, a certified practitioner and whatever else needed to be done.

This company is just starting.


What do you hope to accomplish with your new identity?

I intend to Heal the World using proven methods. It may not work. We will certainly find out,.


What are your long term goals?

After creating and launching the membership site, and automating infrastructure, we will turn to providing people tools to:
Help People Help Themselves

This will include sponsoring Wiki's and other structures to help people discover their own abilities and how to shed their self-imposed chains.


When is the deadline for final entries before choosing a designer?

I would love to launch on May 15th.

I am running into some challenges with having first one thing completed before other steps can be initiated. It may take longer. It will take no longer than thirty days.


Audience Profile:
Please describe your existing audience

I will launch with JV partners whose lists focus on self-help.


Who would you like to add to your audience?

Those looking for personal and/or global healing.


Perception/Tone/Guidelines:
What type of logo would you like?

I don't know.


Do you have any colors in mind for your logo? (if so, why?)

I have no colors in mind.

The logo should look good in color and black and white.

The website background will be white or light grey.


Do you have any specific images or icons in mind that you would definitely like to see incorporated into your logo?

I would rather not limit your imagination. If you think it would be helpful, I do have some ideas. Let me know and I'll post them in a file you can look in or not.


Communication Strategy:
What attributes would you like your logo to reflect about your business?

Connectedness and/or Peace


What is your tagline or slogan?

One will be:
Helping People Help Themselves & Each Other


What is the overall message you are trying to convey to your target audience?

You can start doing something by and for yourself that will join you with others to create even more benefits for all.


Where will your new logo be used?

On the website, business cards, stationary and perhaps T-Shirts and other promotional items.


Competitive Positioning:
Who are your competitors and what do you think about their logos?

Mostly, I don't have competitors. The Healing Codes Logo is quite good.
http://fitnessandhealing.com


List competitive URLs if possible

These are more likely to be Joint Venture Partners than competitors, but, they give you something:
http://centerpointe.com/
http://www.learningstrategies.com/
http://www.noetic.org/ (This is a lot like Learning Strategies & Leonardo.)
http://www.noetic.org/events/2007Conf_PalmSprings/mainpage2.html


What sets you apart from your competitors?

I am starting. They are still planning or fund raising.


Targeted Message:
State a single-minded word or phrase that will appropriately describe your company:

Heal Your World


Plus a few design ideas:
A few design ideas:

Ripples in water spreading outwards.

The White Crane is a bird representing peace in much of Asia.
I intend to tell a story about making a 1,000 paper cranes as an illustration to a point I wish to make.
The statue and its base are interesting.
http://www.sadako.org/sadakostory.htm

Doves are obviously birds of peace.

I'm not certain anyone would recognize an olive branch.

[BlueCherryGraphics]

Quick question: is "WorldHealingCircles.com" the name we should use for the logo? If so, can you edit your post above and put that as the answer to the first question?

Thanks!

Thanks. I wasn't sure if the name was WorldHealingCircles or WorldHealingCodes. Can you please clarify which you would like to use? Thanks.

Re: Thanks. I wasn't sure if the name was WorldHealingCircles or WorldHealingCodes. Can you please clarify which you would like to use? Thanks.

I meant to type WorldHealingCircles.com

I have worked with the Healing Codes for the last three years and some words just get typed automatically.

[whc2]

The paper crane without some kind of circle, somewhere, seems out of place.

[OffbeatDesign]

Thanks for the feedback

Version 4

Can you create a ripple effect?

[OffbeatDesign]

Thanks.

[Titania]

i'm in! i'll post asap! :yes:

[whc2]

At the moment, my two favorites are Version number 5 by offbeat design and version #.01 by Titania.

I have asked my MasterMind for comments and I will post more feedback as I receive it.

My website is set to be critiqued on June 12; therefore, I will come to a decision around the end of this month.

I am attending a marekting seminar at the end of the month and I may ask for a critque by the members while I am there.

I would like to come to decision by asking my members to vote for their preference; but, since I don't have any yet, that could require some creativity.

Thank you. I think you are all very talented and effective.

Version 6

Re: Version Six by Offbeat Design

This is interesting.

Is it possible to make it into something that incorporates the ripple effect of spreading circles with Yin/Yang Symbolism?

Thanks.

[whc2]

Thanks.

This is from one of my mastermind memebers and a good point.

Don,

I like the crane with the circle. For subconscious reasons, the crane should be "looking" down and to the right.

We mostly use logos at the top left of a page, so the action in the logo should read the reader to the rest of the document the logo is on.

Here you go. Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!

Here you go. Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks!

The crane is winning for all kinds of reasons. We've found songs and stories to work with as well.

The white crane is a symbol of peace; therefore, how about a
dark background with a White Crane? If it's a dark background, would stars in the background make sense?

Could I see it with and without stars in a dark background?

I do not use reverse text in the body of a website, therefore it would need to be captured and in some kind of container to set it off from the rest of the page, whether a circle, or square, tetrahedron or whatever.

Below are instructions from one of my mastermind members with more experience than I have in this arena. Consider it a note so I don't forget how to ask for the files.

"Hi Don,

I have them send the layered photoshop or illustrator file, for easy editing.

I have them send me the names of the fonts used.
Usually you can then find the font for free on the net.

they also send the pantone colors. These are standard color s that are used for reproducing the exact color.

Also, I get:
web optimized jpg and gif (in full color)
vector files for printing (in CMYK)

That gives me the variety I need for anything that I'll need to have done with the logo. You'll most use the vector images for printing, and the web enabled ones.

Donna"

Thanks.

No problem on the file instructions. Here's version 10

Like the reverse with starry background.

Can you make the stars a bit more twinkly or starry?

Thanks.

[OffbeatDesign]

Thanks Don.
