Are you considering a new logo for 2010? Looking to hire a new design firm for your website, brochures, or new patient packets? I don't know about you, but sometimes I have a lot of trouble speaking the same language as designers.
With design being such a critical part of your practice's image; good, clear, communication between you and your designer is critical.
Here are some tips on how to find (and work well with) a good designer:
* Get referrals. My friends at Level8 Design Studio create beautiful work for all budgets. You can check out their latest projects at www.level8ds.com
* Look at their work. Visit websites or ask to see a portfolio so you can decide if the designer is capable of producing a look that suits you.
* Talk. Go through a project they did and ask them to talk you through the process. You'll get a sense of how long your project might take and what they'll need from you.
* Get an estimate. Rates are going to vary. Some designers work hourly, some work by project. Make sure you confirm what is included and ask about revisions. Some firms limit the amount of revisions you can make so make sure you have a clear understanding.
Let me know what additional questions you have about graphic design and I will get them answered for you in an upcoming post!
Make it a great week,
Sarah
