Sometimes you've just got to feel the texture!
Even with the growth of electronic media, high-quality print is still essential to effectively function in today's highly competitive market place.
It's all in the presentation.
Looking for eye catching materials to promote your business? Effective flyers, posters and advert layouts are essential for getting your business and services noticed and remembered. From postcard sized flyers to promote a specific offer or service, to folded A4 leaflets with more detailed information of your business - I provide an affordable graphic design service with professional, striking results to help get your business and services noticed.
My approach
My approach is focused on the balance and the typographic games. When you look at some of the projects I have conducted, you can figure out an ability to produce harmonious print material with good taste on typography and layout management.
Lots of people think that you MUST be over sophisticated in your design to be creative; my view is that you first need to know what you do and you have to be settled into your business. A good piece of print is first something that is readable.
The Design Guru can provide you with high creative standard print material: brochure, greeting card, stationery packs, magazine, leaflet, poster, newsletters, point-of-sale, calendars, catalogues, accounts and reports, CD/DVD packages, badges, menus, manuals on very competitive prices.
What process do you follow?
A typical print project follows 5 stages:
1. The brief
To create a solution that is specific to the needs of any given client, it is essential that background information is sought about their business, product(s), service(s) and belief(s). This part of the design process is vital and enables myself to generate a clear idea of what is required. From this, a brief can be compiled and confirmation can be sought on the cost involved in completing the project. Upon agreement of the proposed costing, steps can then be taken to start developing ideas.
2. Development of concepts
Commencement of this stage requires further market led research to attain a better understanding of the industry that the client is in. Ideas are sketched, evolved and developed freehand into working concepts. From here, they will continue life on-screen to be established as initial prototypes for client perusal.
3. Send and review
Once the client has received, assessed, reviewed and reflected upon the proposed designs, their opinion will be sought, where upon, changes, amendments and general refinement can be made to evolve a chosen design. However, if it’s thought that the design(s) are not right for progression; further new ideas can be developed. I am happy to continue this process until the client is totally satisfied with the design.
4. Print ready artwork
Once a design has been chosen and agreed upon, the artwork will be set-up to print-ready specifications and a sign off from the client will be required before any artwork is sent off to print or uploaded online. All files will be then be supplied on disc to the client.
5. Payment
On completion of the project/job, an invoice will be sent out, requesting payment within 5 days from the date on the invoice.
