But with a logo, you are in very large part selling the idea for the design, more than the hours it'll actually take to finally turn that idea into an usable vector, so it's much easier for the client to just grab the design in its sketch state and steal away with that, leaving you empty handed.
Well , yes , the hardest part, for however strange it might seem , indesignign logos , is not realizing it , but brainstorming the idea ... It takes me 9/10 of the time to get a good idea than to actually design it.
