Hiring a designer BRIDGES the gap between abstract ideas and tangible outputs… Okay, just kidding. I’m finding showing up as a “personal brand” a bit strange. I don’t have the perfect photo of myself at a Pinterest-worthy desk setup, and still no professional headshots. I could show you my squinty designer face with my permanently smudged glasses, but that doesn’t look very nice. Instead, here’s a photo of me on a beautiful bridge in Italy. All jokes aside, working with a designer does bridge lots of gaps. We’re really good at visualising concepts and simplifying complex ideas into things that are easy to engage with. And we’re really great at lateral thinking. Ciao for now x #FreelanceDesigner #GraphicDesigner #DigitalDesigner

6 reasons why external graphic designers can be a cost-effective option for SMEs 👇🏻 From my time working for organisations in the first half of my career, I have an insight into the minefield resourcing for design work is. Many of my clients started working with me for this reason. They needed a design expert to hit the ground running, take on their graphic design projects, and free up the rest of the team. The biggest reason I see other businesses not doing the same is cost. There's a myth that external designers are really expensive. But that's not always the case. These are the reasons why we can be a cost-effective option: 1. high level of expertise → efficient project execution 2. flexible hiring → saves on in-house team costs 3. access to cutting-edge tools → no upfront expenses 4. established skills → reduce training costs 5. direct communication → quicker decision-making 6. fresh perspective → innovative solutions If you've been on the fence about hiring an external graphic designer, feel free to message me and I'd be happy to have a chat 😊 #branddesign #SMEsupport #SMEbranding #SMEgraphicdesign #startupsupport

Hipsters with giant glasses and espresso cups, slaving away at their Macs to make the world more beautiful? Let's bust some myths about these quirky creatures and reveal the hilarious truths behind the rumors! Myth: Graphic designers are just all about making stuff pretty. Reality: Not so fast, amigo! Graphic designers are like Batman, using their creativity and problem-solving skills to save the day with designs that speak louder than words. POW! Myth: Graphic design is a piece of cake, anyone can do it. Reality: Haha, oh you sweet summer child! Graphic design requires a unique blend of skills, from eye-catching aesthetics to technical wizardry that only the design pros possess. You got served! Myth: Graphic designers are glued to their screens 24/7. Reality: Wait, hold up! These guys break out their paper and pencils like it's going out of style, doodling, brainstorming, and experimenting with all sorts of cool mediums. They're like MacGyver, but with art supplies. Myth: Graphic design is a lonely island. Reality: Are you kidding me? Graphic designers are the ultimate cheese to your wine, working with clients, teammates, and even the office plant to bring their creative visions to life. They're like a big bowl of guac, bringing everyone together in delicious harmony. Myth: Trends are everything in graphic design. Reality: Pfft, trends.
