A logo combines text and imagery. It tells people the name of your company and creates a visual symbol that acts as the face of your business. It always helps brand awareness when contacting buyers on Amazon to request seller feedback and product reviews. In ecommerce, a high-quality, custom-designed, professional logo can help you attract new customers. You can use it to promote your business both online and offline.
