The safe direction
Senior Operator
Steady, senior, no surprises. Reads like a firm that has done this before.
Gains: Trust on first look with CPG and managed services owners.
Gives up: Memorability. It sits close to the fractional CMO firms.
Two half rings set one step apart. Marketing hands the lead to sales, and sales hands back what it learned. It is our recommendation out of four concepts.
Before drawing marks, we set out three different directions for how Orcava could feel.
The safe direction
Steady, senior, no surprises. Reads like a firm that has done this before.
Gains: Trust on first look with CPG and managed services owners.
Gives up: Memorability. It sits close to the fractional CMO firms.
The recommended direction
Confident and connected. Sales and marketing drawn as one shape.
Gains: A shape and color no competitor owns, and a story in the mark itself.
Gives up: Some conservatism. Green reads as growth, which invites a question about results.
The unexpected direction
Hands-on and signed-off. Plans marked up in the field, not slides.
Gains: Character and warmth. Stands apart from every agency site.
Gives up: Polish at small sizes. It can read as a small shop.
Each concept is scored 1 to 5 on six criteria, weighted toward simplicity and distinctiveness. We checked for look-alikes among your competitors. That is not a trademark search, which is worth doing before you register the mark.

Field Notes
Not recommended
A working stamp, the kind pressed on a signed-off plan. It loses detail at small sizes.
