Logo designer & brand identity design — Sandra Jakovljević
They judge you before they read a word.
A few seconds. That’s all a stranger needs to decide whether your business looks like the real thing. They won’t tell you what they decided. They’ll simply buy — or leave.
I’m Sandra. I design logos and brand identities that win those seconds — shaped by geometry, measured by the golden ratio, and backed by twenty years of running businesses myself.
3 new projects a month — never more
Prologue — the first impression
Here’s something nobody tells you about your logo.
It isn’t for you.
You’ll look at it every day, and within a month you’ll stop seeing it. Your customers never do. They meet it fresh — on a card, a screen, a sign above your door — and in that instant their brain asks one quiet question: can I trust these people?
A clear brand answers “yes” before you’ve said a word. A muddled one makes them hesitate. And hesitation is expensive. It’s the client who “will think about it” and never calls back.
So I don’t design decoration. I design that answer.
iPerception
People judge how you look long before they judge what you offer.
iiTrust
The same face at every touchpoint is what makes a business feel safe.
iiiValue
A brand that looks premium lets you charge like one.
ivGrowth
Better-looking businesses attract better clients. Quietly, every day.

What changed after the work was done
“Sandra’s questionnaire quickly showed us we had been approaching our brand the wrong way. Within six months, our monthly logo sales increased from around 4 to between 9 and 14.”
“Sandra is a masterful designer whose work truly stands out. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for top-notch design expertise.”
“Our business has been around for over 20 years, and we had never seriously considered rebranding. Sandra’s presentation and the ideas she shared in her proposal made us rethink our perspective. Her thoughtful approach not only gave us a brand identity we are truly proud of, but also helped us better understand how we want to present ourselves in our small but beautiful city.”
“Even though we come from the corporate world, we were genuinely impressed. The complimentary brand audit she provided ultimately played an important role in shaping the landing pages of our website.”
“Sandra ist sehr genau auf meine Wünsche eingegangen. Tolle kreative Ideen, mit einer feinfühligen und genauen Rezeption der geäußerten Wünsche. Vielen Dank! Es hat Spaß gemacht und ich habe mich immer gehört gefühlt. Ich liebe das Ergebnis!”“Sandra was pleasant, innovative and creative as well as being prompt in every design proposed. I would highly recommend her for any future work opportunities.”
II — Who’s behind this
The economist and the designer, in one chair. The proportions are not an accident.
A real person
From the first question to the final file, it’s me. No account managers.
A business mind
Every shape has to earn its place in your business, not just on your wall.
Still here after launch
Most of my clients come back. The relationship doesn’t end at delivery.
Two things happened in 1990.
I was ten years old, and I tasted chocolate for the first time.
Somewhere far away, a program called Photoshop was released.
It took me years to understand that the second one would shape my life as much as the first one sweetened it.
Before design, there was business — more than twenty years of it. A Master of Economic Sciences, an MSc in E-Business, and a long education in what makes customers trust a company and what makes them walk away.
Then I taught myself design. Not to make pretty things. To make things that work.
That’s the unusual part. When you hire me you get two people in one chair: the economist who asks what your brand has to earn, and the designer who makes sure it looks like it already has.
I’m an introvert. I listen far more than I talk — which turns out to be the most useful skill a brand designer can have. And I take only three new projects a month. Not as a sales trick. Because the fourth would get less of me, and I won’t do that to anyone.

Software can make a logo in seconds. It can’t sit with your story until it finds the one shape that belongs only to you. The longer story — and my Serbian heritage work — lives at sandrajakovljevic.com.
III — Services & pricing
Two packages. Fixed prices. No surprises.
You’ll know the full cost before we begin. Nothing hidden in the small print, nothing added halfway through.
For personal brands
Consultants, lawyers, coaches, photographers, musicians and creators. You are the business — your brand should carry your credibility before you walk into the room.
For start-ups
New businesses and small teams who want to look established from day one — a logo, a visual system and a strategy that won’t need replacing next year.
For growing businesses
Established companies whose identity no longer matches who they’ve become. A rebrand, a new product line, or a careful refresh.

DNA 02
Positioning
Where you stand among competitors — and the space only you can own.
DNA 03
Personality
Voice and character, so your brand feels like someone people want to deal with.
DNA 04
Long-term direction
A system that stays consistent as you grow, instead of falling apart.
IV — How it works
Three steps. You’ll always know what happens next.
Logo design takes about a week. A full brand identity, around two. Your proposal includes the exact dates.
01
Tell me about your services or business
A questionnaire. It looks simple; it isn’t. Clients tell me it changed how they saw their own business before I’d drawn a single line.
Open the questionnaire02
Receive a clear proposal
I read every answer and ask if anything needs clarifying. Then you get scope, timeline, fixed price and deliverables in writing. A 50% deposit reserves your place.
03
Receive your final files
Depending on the service you choose and the customized solutions, you’ll receive the final files and deliverables specific to your project. You can find a detailed overview of what to expect on each individual logo and branding service page.
V — Questions
What you’re probably wondering.
Something not covered here? Ask me directly — I answer personally.
All answers on one pageHow can we work together?
You can contact me via email at hi@masterfulworld.com, use the contact form on my website, or, ideally, complete the questionnaire if you like my work.
The questionnaire is the foundation of our collaboration. It helps me understand your business, your expectations, and what you want to achieve.
Once I receive your completed questionnaire, I will review your answers and respond by email. From there, we will agree on the details of our collaboration in writing.
Will my logo be unique?
Yes.
Every logo is designed specifically for your business, based on the information you provide in the creative questionnaire.
For custom projects, I do not use stock graphics, templates, or pre-made logos. Each concept is developed individually to reflect your business, positioning, and visual direction.
If you prefer a faster option, my ready-made logos are also exclusive: each one is sold only once and then removed from the shop permanently.
What is included in your logo design package?
The complete Logo Design Package costs €799 and includes:
- 3 original logo concepts to choose from
- Unlimited revisions on your selected concept
- Logo files optimized for both web and print
- Fully scalable vector files: AI, SVG, EPS, PNG, JPEG and PDF
Each element is developed to create a consistent visual foundation for your business.
What is included in your branding package?
The complete Branding Package costs €2,199 and includes:
- Logo and full identity system
- Typography and hierarchy guidelines
- Logo usage: clear space, sizing, dos and don’ts
- Brand finder & messaging
- Colour palette & typography
- Social media kit, stationery and mockups
- Brand guidelines booklet
- Editable source files at no extra cost
- Full ownership after the final payment
The process typically takes around two weeks, provided communication remains consistent and feedback is delivered on time.
The entire project is managed via email, allowing us to document decisions, maintain a clear workflow, and keep the project organized from beginning to end.
How does payment work?
Projects are paid for in two installments:
- 50% upfront to confirm the project and begin the work.
- 50% upon completion, before the final deliverables are released.
Available payment methods include:
- PayPal
- Credit card
- Bank transfer (SWIFT / Raiffeisen Bank)
All payment details and instructions will be provided by email before the project begins.
Will I receive editable source files?
Yes.
Many designers charge extra for source files. I do not.
You will receive the original, editable files for all final deliverables, allowing your in-house team or future designers to update them whenever necessary.
If someone on your team needs help implementing or extending the design in the future, we can arrange additional work at my standard rate for existing clients.
What if I don’t like the designs?
The process is designed to minimize the likelihood of this happening.
Every project begins with research and a detailed questionnaire to establish a clear direction before the design work starts.
The package includes unlimited revisions of the selected logo concept, allowing us to refine the design based on your feedback.
However, it is important to distinguish between refining an agreed design direction and changing the original project scope entirely. If your requirements change significantly after the project has started, we will discuss the implications and agree on any necessary adjustments before proceeding.
Cancellation policy
You may cancel the project at any time. However, the initial 50% deposit is non-refundable because it reserves my time and covers the initial work, research, and resources dedicated to your project.
If you cancel after work has progressed beyond the initial stage, any additional work completed beyond the scope covered by the deposit may be invoiced separately, based on the work completed up to the cancellation date. Any such charges will be communicated clearly.
This approach ensures that expectations and responsibilities remain transparent throughout our collaboration.
