UPDATE ON BELOW (changed from 1 to 3 stars): After a bunch of just saying "sorry, can we give some of your money back for you to remove your reviews" (I wasn't interested), the founder called me and offered to apply my previous payment to a "managed contest" to get me a better result. Ultimately, it did not work for me, but I really appreciated their willingness to do this, and so I improved my rating on this review. This is the email I sent my consultant this morning:

"Hi Grant, unfortunately, I just don't think the naming process is working for us. The alternatives developed so far are just not really close to what we will be enthusiastic about, and I am confident we will be able to develop a name we like internally (as difficult as it is), as we did previously. You may be right that the names are all "fine and usable" even though we don't "like" them, or it's just that the fact that we didn't think of them ourselves; nonetheless we DO want a name we genuinely like. I appreciate the effort very much, but I don't want you to invest any more time. I know you've helped many many customers successfully, I just don't think I'm a good customer. I'll change the reviews I wrote to acknowledge your efforts, which I do sincerely appreciate."

I followed the site's instructions, spending quite a bit of time specifying exactly what I needed, and I even paid extra to get "only their best tier one creatives". Then I was inundated with 500+ potential firm/domain names, 90% of which did not meet the basic required criteria the site had asked me to so carefully think about and articulate. I spent a ton of time giving feedback as the site told me to do, and in the end literally not one suggested name was even close to what we needed. I felt that most of what I was getting were "recycled pet names" the "creatives" had thought of and were trying to get someone to buy, rather than names developed for my business. In the end the experience was a waste of time and money. As a contrast, I used 99Designs for our logo and I was happy with the experience and gladly paid the contest winner 2x what I had offered to pay the squadhelp contest winner.

It has been a real challenge to select the winner of my logo contest. Even with the bronze package, I was really surprised with the high quality submissions I did receive.

In the end, I found my name myself, but using a proposition of the contest. So I gave Victory to this proposition but the contest itself did not reach its target.

This process was wonderful and the creatives did a beautiful job! The final selection came down to audience testing via Squadhelp, my informal polling, and risk mitigation with the TM check.

My experience was amazing, I received so many great proposals, it was actually tough to choose. Once I got pretty clear about which one I wanted, the contestant has been absolutely outstanding in making all the adjustements and finetunings. A well deserved award!
