Just designed these stickers and also come up with the brandname. Would appreciate any thoughts on them please. Both on the name and actual design.



Bottom sticker basically says where the bat is made and how. Idea is so people know full well what they're getting. Front sticker would be a tad shorter, similar in length to GM or Salix.

Where did you get the idea for the name?

[Tom]

Derived from the word Willow in Greek. With the S added on to make domain names easier to get hold of.

[Howzat]

Sorry you know what i think of the name...same for the stickers

[Danny]

I like it, the stickers have a very strong greek feeling about them! I think its the font you have used, very clever. How do you pronounce the company name? Overall a really good effort I would say.

[Sambo]

looks alright, not fussed on them though

[SAF Bats]

Pronounced : It-e-ah 

exo means, out or outside - Tom [but I guess you may know this]

Cant make out the bottom sticker Tom, Handmade By someone something @ something else?

[Redback Cricket]

Handmade in England from G1 willow?

[Tom]

Yep, looking to brand every bat with where it's come from (Location) and what willow it's from.

And I chose Exo not because of any meaning just as it sounded good  Bit like Puma with their Iridum's etc!

[SAF Bats]

You making them Tom?

[Tom]

Bats? Not to start off with. Haven't got the money to buy the tools and bits, so will brand bats until I have a fair bit of money saved.

[maXXed]

Like those a lot Tom!! You gonna do softs too?

[Tom]

Yep, just waiting for suppliers to get back in contact. One's in the UK at the moment so need to wait for him to be back in India and the office to confirm prices etc.

The stickers are alright but the name for me just doesn't work. Don't know why but just doesn't strike me on first thought as a name for a bat.

[Tom]

Oh well, one thing is the brand name's staying

I could have gone for something cricket/wood related, like Cow Corner Bats or Splinter Cricket but I chose Itias as it sounded classy. Classy sounding name was important to me as I'm aiming to get the quality image of Fusion/Salix at CJI prices.

Chose the Greek name, as I wanted something Latin/Greek like Nike, Salix, Asics have done in the past. Obviously has worked out ok for them. The other option was an animal type name, like Puma, Redback etc have done but couldn't think of any good animals.
