Please what are also the steps in making a very good resume as a graphics designer who is not yet experienced or still an entry level designer? What is the best portfolio sites to start posting your designs as an entry lvl or non experienced designer too. Thank you. 🙏
Response time for other freelance designers also holds the same when trying to get clients. Trying to get potential clients to just communicate back is just horrible these days. So yeah, when that happened, it's a red flag to not work with them
It's true, but you need to work up the ladder. You will likely have to work for the bottom run clients who pay little and don't expect amazing work in the first place.
@@SatoriGraphics sub niches doesn't really work on Fiverr people are looking for coloring books and not animal coloring book for example. Sub niches work well on market places
Thanks for the video. Please I have a question I really need to ask. How do we send our finished work to our supposed client when you're done with all the designs. Which app, software or sites is used in sending them. Thanks alot!
This video gives some excellent tips on how to create custom proposals and build a strong profile on freelance platforms. Phyllis Song understands the importance of these strategies and helps our VAs develop their skills in these areas. We're committed to providing our clients with the best talent and expertise.
Thanks for the video! What I found almost impossible is to get clients if you don't have any rating stars but then you can get any stars because you can get client to rate you.... Just like you said, that the first thing you look, so the people you have more clients/stars are the one's that will keep getting more and more! What can you do about that!?
I'm working right now as a graphic designer but Truly I don't get any earnings even though i make some really clean graphics, and this is breaking my heart cz I've worked so hard but also I got no idea about how to make money.
It's all about marketing. A brand can make the best perfume but if they don't market it, nobody will buy it. On the flip side, in the 70s pet rocks were being sold. People were mad about a rock that was packaged in a box as a pet. Why? Because of marketing
Hi, Tom. Very informative and helpful videos you create. Thanks a lot! Please, could you in one of the next videos tell us more about the brand identity. Namely : brandbook, logbook, guideline with examples if possible. Of course, I understand that it is created individually, a lot of very features, depends on the type of company (business area), company size and other factors. Yes, I already know some points and I know how to use "google". But you explain very well and I would really like to hear this information in your presentation.
What do you personally think Tom...is graphic design a creative profession or still a technical one? Thanks again for the video, I will be glad if you answer:) Best wishes!
thank you for the lesson, this really helped me, it's just that on Fiverr I had problems with Timezone, most of the clients on Fiverr were Americans or Europeans , so at midnight here is noon at America, this sometimes makes it difficult for me to get a good response time
You need to start at the bottom, and take on projects that do not pay much at all. You also need a portfolio of work, even if it's design competition entires or fictitious briefs
Insightful 🌟 Bro could u tell how to start & get freelancing clients as a design construction engineer bcoz there are not much projects in my field which are given to freshers without 2yrs of experience in execution of design so how can i get through this problem & thrive in the uncertain phase ?
Hi Tom, I love how much effort you put into your content. Like many, many other people, I truly value and support your work. There’s a question that’s been going on in my mind that I’ve been hesitant to ask. If it’s alright with you, I would like to ask that question respectfully. Here : Your logo is clean, minimal and looks nice. However, I can’t help but be reminded of Squarespace every time I look at it. Is that alright in logo design? Could you educate me on how it’s alright to have similarities ? Thanks again. I will probably delete this in few days because I don’t want any negative comments bothering you. But it would be great if I get any answer before that. Love and respect. Always.
Thanks for the comment. Here's the run down about that logo. Firstly I rarely ever use it and Satori Graphics is more linked back to a brand identity rather than having a logo as part of the branding system. After I designed it, I was informed that it looks a bit like the Skillshare logo. To an extent this is true, but it isn't a copy and it shares slight similarities. It was annoying to realise this after I had designed it and hadn't taken the Skillshare logo into consideration. There is actually a 3rd logo out there from a different brand that also looks similar to Skillshare and also my logo. This kind of thing happens often because you need to consider how many logos exist in this day and age. It's almost impossible to make anything original without it looking similar to something else. If by accident or not. I may go ahead and redesign it at some point, but like I said, I don't really ever use a logo. My profile picture is more of an icon within social media for Satori Graphics, along with font choice and colour scheme. Edit: After doing some research into it, there are many logos that look similar, which just backs up what I said above. The Shazam logo The British Steel logo Skillshare logo - so yeah I will get around to redesigning it at some point.
Imagine charging 17 bucks for a logo. These freelance sites are a boon to the third world that can compete on ridiculous prices. For everyone else, it is impossible to survive on.
The best strategy to grow wealth is to invest on yourself and improve, then you will make money easily... a fellow creator

How do you then hire up and coming graphic designers if you're looking at star review first
Having to get a client the very first one is always difficult especially when have nothing to show for and not sure how to overcome that

Glad you like them
You've just said what my paid course said about freelancing. I want my money back!
lol sorry this was made after the course you watched :/
I have a question. What are the freelancing platforms for graphic designers? Can you do a tutorial of those, and how to use those accounts.
My favourites would be UpWork, PeoplePerHour and Toptal

Hi there, I wanted to ask if it will be possible to be a free lancer while designing graphics on a smart phone?
thank you for the lesson, this really helped me, it's just that on Fiverr I had problems with Timezone, most of the clients on Fiverr were Americans or Europeans , so at midnight here is noon at America, this sometimes makes it difficult for me to get a good response time
Nice Very Technical
Cheers for the feedback :)
Hi, But how do i get those stars if i'm just starting and also how do i set up the prices, again, if i'm just starting?

Satori 💞💞💞
Appreciate it :)
Hey Satori what is your take on sending customized cold emails to prospects, doesn't it make you stand out?
Note:
Stand out
find nische within a niche
portfolio main video
reply as fast as possible
make connections real
👍👍👍
i love your content. but i think you should upgrade your setup, those thick bezels doesn't go with the modernity you try to represent.
True
Who said I'm going for modernity? It's an iMac bro
Which platform you are using to make vedio?
If your new , how tf do u ever get noticed ..u look at stars and badges which i will not have if i start
Social media presence
Naray vandha piragae, puriyudhu ulagai.
A plateforme like fiverr prohibit you from asking for a review
UpWork and others don't mind
@@SatoriGraphics thank you for replying
No point trying to compete on those websites. 15 bucks for a logo? ridiculous.
its work in iraq?
I would assume so, but I haven't tried 👍
Do I need to put up my smiley face on every thumbnail like TH-cam? hehe
it might help, give it a go!
