Small Business Logo Failures

“Hey assholes, why don’t you pick on someone your own size, huh? These small businesses are the backbone of America and making fun of them makes you a TERRORIST!” – Summary of everyone that’s ever yelled at us for criticizing small business logos.

Yeah, well, we wish the backbone of America would straighten up and get some decent marketing. It’s an integral part of running a good business, and these logos really aren’t helping anybody.

This Logo Appeals to the Exact Right Demo

Tanning: Bad for the Eyes

by Earl of Hurl on December 17, 2010

It’s cold outside, there’s not a lot of sun, and a lot of people are hitting the tanning beds. So we’re going to bring you a couple of days of tanning bed logos with which to warm your hearts.

How many “CT”‘s is too many sets of initials for one logo? This guy’s got five. Someone decided that their logo needed to use their initials five times.

I’m going to pick just the one thing to go with here. I’ll let you guys run with the rest of the WTF contained in this logo. Go. Make us proud.

Thee? I’d bet dollars to donuts that they chose theecakefairy.com only because THEcakefairy.com was already taken. And better designed.

Once You See It

by Earl of Hurl on December 13, 2010

Thanks to Barfer Dave for sending in today’s logo, about which he says:

Here is a logo from a local meat processor. They have have great hotdogs (seriously), but appear to use the old “subliminal brassiere” motif to sell their wares.

“If Our Logo is Happy, Our Customers Will Be Too!”

by Earl of Hurl on December 10, 2010

This logo came like this. We didn’t fuck it up. Actually, it copied over at 800 pixels wide – this is sized at 400 – so you can imaging the artifacts I saw there.

“O’Hare Inn…& Suites: Have a super-duper day!”

Thanks to Barfer Igor for this find. We hope you don’t get bedbugs from this place.
