The client does NOT want a symbol - strictly initials and the company name.   In addition to the samples from 48hrs logo I am also attaching samples of logos with initials.  For the initials,   I am thinking either block type fonts - or maybe handwritten style.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Colors:  Black / white / gray.   You may include an accent or detail of color if you feel it helps the design.

Started out with a strong design - I asked for updates and variations and they updated the background, not the logo.
