Our Name and Our Logo

We welcome the opportunity to co-brand with our partners and are happy to provide variations of our logo and information below.  Please keep the following guidelines in mind and feel free to reach out with any questions on usage.

When referring to our organization…

…we ask that you use “The SME Forum”.   The full name “The Sales and Marketing Enablement Forum” may be used if necessary as a first reference and then followed by “The SME Forum” in subsequent references.

When using our logo

• Our default is Full Color for all online uses unless that is impractical.  You can use either the stacked or horizontal versions to satisfy your design layout.
• Please use the black or white version on layouts that are black and white only.  You can also use the white version on dark backgrounds so it’s easy to see when necessary.
• To make sure that our logo is legible, and to maintain its integrity, please try to keep the area surrounding it free of other elements with a minimum clearspace being the width of the vertical ‘the’ x 2.
• The minimum size of our logo is .25 in (6.35mm) in print, or 25px on screen, measured by the height.  On rare occasions, smaller may be necessary,but legibility should remain a top priority.
• We want to protect our logo and brand, so please do not modify or distort it. If you have any questions or require a special format, email us at SMEForum@thesmeforum.net
