it feels tooo blocky and stretched out.
I'd play with different ways to creat a CBH, I can think of one that would be kinda neet..

use a squared C as you have there, then on the b loose the left bar just leaving it looking kinda like a 3, then on the h loose the left bar thing again.. bring them really close togeather. it's worth a try? and leaves a little mystery to it for some others to figure out what it says.?

I agree with Coy. I would try to combine the letters in a clever way. When I do type treatments, I usually mess around and try something out, then make a copy, try something else, then make another copy. Basically, I keep a copy of everything I do in that one document and then I have them all there to look at and compare and see what I like best. :)

You can also look at negative space as well ex:

and try different fonts or create the letters out of simple shapes, :)

Hi!
Try different fonts, overlapping letters, try some transparencies, some 3d :-) there are many things you can do to design a kool logo-type ;-) the one you have there is a little bit simple I think ...
Cheers!

when working with letters in a logo, i feel like choosing the right font, color, and use of negative space, etc can give you a great looking, professional, logo. fool around with different combinations and see what looks best. break up the letters and rearrange them in different ways. experiment!

I do agree with most of the comments, however, a logo becomes what you make it. It doesn't matter if it is catchy, colorful or not. Look at many of the logos out there. Many are not very good, yet the company is successful. Another key is consistency, a logo ideally should stand the test of time, but again that is not always the case. Some companies show a change in identity to show growth. Bottom line...it is your logo, you are the customer...are you happy with it?
