Omo brands like these are just too hard to educate. The best is just to show them businesses that are bigger than them and what they are doing.
If not I'll just find a way to dodge the project.
Designers to the rescue! ๐ฌ How can I tactfully tell this client this isn't a logo?
Had tried explained everything to her but sheโs not getting it .. ๐ซ๐ช
The most underrated skill in design?
Knowing what to remove.
Cluttered layouts. Extra words. Too many icons.
These are all signs that a designer is trying to prove something instead of saying something.
Whatโs one thing youโve learned to leave out when designing?
I'm so locked in:
-If I'm not home, I'm at the gym.
-If I'm home, I'm on my laptop learning or practicing.
-If I'm on my phone, I'm gathering ideas for my next project.
-If not, I'm reading a book.
I go to bed tired and wake up excited because of intensity, goals, and purpose.
I'm pretty sure that other top freelancers knew about this and were gatekeeping it.
But as Austen Kleon said in Steal like an artist that "People love it when you're giving your secrets away" other people will use it and you will still be the original author of this. Thank you.
