How much does a Graphic Designer cost?

The different kinds of graphic design and their complexity will greatly affect how much you can expect to pay. Graphic designers create a huge array of content – from posters and flyers to websites and logos. Some of these graphics are used for film or TV, while others find placement within ads. Graphic designers mix both skill and creativity, while also being able to communicate with clients in an effective manner.

How do I choose and work with a Graphic Designer?

When it comes to choosing your graphic designer, make sure you are clear as possible about what you expect from them. It’s best to write a detailed brief with background, details and timelines on your project. Giving them the relevant background information will attract the best talent possible for your brief.

Make sure to share details about your company, what you wish to achieve and any qualifications you think are necessary for the role. Explain any deadlines and things they may have to work around to make sure their understanding of the job is as comprehensive as possible.

It can also help if you understand a little bit about design yourself. Without going into too much detail, you can research what skills you would need for a particular job. After getting your head around some fundamental concepts, you can ask your candidate some questions to see how they respond.

This could be about past work they’ve done, or it could be about something you are wishing to create from scratch. This will give you a good idea of how they come up with solutions. You may even assign a trial project to complete – as long as this trial is paid for.

Talking to your potential designer on the phone is also useful. This way you can get a great understanding of how you will communicate together and whether you see eye to eye. Be sure to ask your candidate what they will need from you as well. This will help your project to go smoothly and result in the best possible outcome.

Do I need a Graphic Designer?

Having fantastic visual design can really change how your audience (or customers) view you. In fact, great graphic design goes way past just making things look good. As well as a strong visual impression, brilliant graphic design enables you to amplify your efforts and get your message across in a way that will make people take notice.

What are the different types of Graphic Design?

With the variety of graphic design solutions available, finding the correct one for your project is important. And while they can overlap, each of them will generally have their own specialisation with different skills or techniques needed. For example, there are designers that only focus on a single type of graphic design, and some that also include related skillsets. This is an industry that changes a lot, so designers have to adapt to different challenges as time goes on. Understanding some of these types of graphic design can help you greatly when it comes to picking the right professional.

User Interface Design

User interface design, also known as UI, involves the creation of graphics for interfaces within devices or applications. When created properly, UI design provides a great experience for the user. These designs will include all points of interaction for the user, including buttons, menus and more. This type of design has to not only look good but also be functional in a straightforward way.

Publication Graphic Design

Designing graphics for publications involves working with publishers or editors to create appealing layouts, artwork, illustrations and typography for various publications. These publications can include things such as magazines, books, newspapers and more. Again, the Internet has enabled this type of publishing to find a home online too.

Packaging Graphic Design

Creating designs for packaging needs a high level of knowledge of manufacturing and printing processes. These designers will create mock-ups as well as the final files for packaging for various types of items. The range of the retail processes means that these types of designers may also be enlisted for other design disciplines such as visual identity.

Visual Identity Design

Designers that work on visual identity will create materials such as typography, logos and colour palettes that help to define a brand identity. These designers often create guidelines that help to uphold consistency across the brand. These guidelines can then be applied throughout all of the brand’s media.

Marketing Design

Marketing designers use their skills to assist the owners or marketing strategists of a business to create digital assets. They can specialise in certain media or apply their skills to various digital or print projects. While marketing designers typically worked in print, the age of the Internet and technology has enabled them to expand to digital advertising and content marketing.

Describe your creative process.

Generally a job will follow a similar process which is:
1. Talk about the project and the aims you have in mind
2. Agree a price for the project
3. Agree some inital dates for starting the project
4. Agree some deadlines for certain parts of the project to be completed
5. Client to check over project and make any amends/changes
6. hand over the project to the client
7. Agree a date/time for training on how to work the CMS (content Management System) so you can update the site

What information do you need from a client before you can start work?

Here are some questions that are always great to know when your thinking of having a new website:
1. What is the purpose of the site
2. Do you have a domain?
3. How important is Google rankings (ie being at the top of Google)
4. Do you have the web site content?
5. Can you provide some sample sites that you like/your competitions?
6. Do you have a brand guide that we need to follow for your website?

What do you love most about your job?

The best part about working on new projects is seeing the end result and how it can help and move the business forward. Being able to achieve that and build up a working/personal relationship with the client is also imperative as we become part of your team rather than just an outside provider.

What inspired you to start your own business?

Ive always liked helping business look great! Why should businesses continue to work under poor branding restraints when sometimes if not always there are simple adjustments that can make a huge difference to the way a company looks.

Why should our clients choose you?

Here is one testimonial from a client we have worked with for over 20 years:

We have worked with Eagle Design Ltd for several years now and are extremely pleased with the work, support and ability to really understand our business which makes our relationship more of a partnership. We have and would recommend Eagle Design to others.

SLT now consider Eagle Design more of an extension to our business rather than as just a supplier of quality design and print services. Eagle Design delivers a first class service with both the ability to meet our demanding timescales and deliver a service that we are confident will and has produced professional results for our company.

What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?

Sam was amazing, I went with a logo idea and he has the patience of a saint back and forth many times with some ideas from Sam. I love the final logo and it wasn’t what I went in with. Highly recommend the services of Active9. Pricing was really reasonable too. Will definitely use again for other services! Thanks again Sam

I chose to collaborate with Zenices after extensively researching various companies, and their exceptional professionalism and expertise immediately set them apart from the competition. Working with Zenices has been an absolute pleasure; their seamless approach to handling my requests, coupled with their willingness to promptly implement updates to my website pages, truly exceeded my expectations. No task was too challenging for them, and the results they delivered left me absolutely thrilled. Thanks to their efforts, my website has undergone a significant enhancement. I am eager to explore the array of additional services that Zenices offers and plan to entrust them with future projects confidently.

I worked with Andrew on many a creative project at Quantum Marketing and we spoke and liaised on multiple projects on a daily basis. Andrew was a core part of the internal team, I certainly enjoy his company and he brightens a day, but more importantly he brings a positive energy to a project and delivers under significant pressure from multiple stakeholders, and is a joy to be around. Highly recommended.
