This is a text-based software marketing company so Icon examples would be a text bubble, initials or some kind of communcation or connecting feel. Also open to other ideas that give the same feel. Keep MessageConnects as one word, but emphasize Connects by bolding, color change or some other method.
 
I'm open on colors, nothing too trendy. Should look like a software/marketing business logo.

I would like a 2 or 3 color logo with an icon that can will look good at the top or the side. (left side).
