Ann Arbor Marketing & Graphic Design Shine at LA2M Logo Contest

Lunch Ann Arbor Marketing (LA2M) has declared Ross Johnson of Michigan Web Design Firm 3.7 Designs the winner of its logo design contest. The winner was announced today at the group's weekly lunch hour networking meeting.

The logo competition was highly competitive. Ross Johnson was one of over fifteen designers to submit designs for the LA2M logo contest.

"I wanted to create an image that evoked both the strength of the LA2M community and a sense of being cutting edge," said Johnson. "It is an honor to be selected as the best out of all the other fantastic submissions."

LA2M received logo entries from other artists including Mitchell Ozog, Casey Frushour, Ryan Doyle, Rebecca Sweeton, Jennifer Lill, Terri Devall, and Steve Alvey.

"The winning logo clearly communicates that LA2M is a forward thinking marketing organization. I look forward to seeing the logo in use when we launch the new LA2M web site late summer 2009." says Derek Mehraban, LA2M Founder and CEO of Ingenex Digital Marketing.
