Choosing Experienced or New Freelance Graphic Designer
It is true
that not all freelancers are created equal, and not all designers ''can do it
all''. Graphic design industry is abuzz with freelancers because there are no
limits to how much freelancers can earn, and no limit to amount of work taken up
by freelancers. Some designers specialize in advertisements or logos or
brochures, etc. Designers have their own areas of specialties. It is important
for you that you be very specific when hiring a freelance graphic designer
and make sure that he can professionally provide the service you're seeking.
Always
remember to see a portfolio that includes relevant examples to your project(s).
Do not hesitate to ask for references, former or current clients who can
provide you an accurate and correct feedback on the quality of services offered
by the designer. His talent and professionalism will come to light when you
talk in detail with the references. If any designer is not interested to share
his portfolio, or does not have one, he/she is simply not worth your time and
valuable money. It's time to move on with your search and find a better
professional.
At the same time,
you should also understand that there are a lot of students and recent
graduates who can provide you with creative services, but they may not have any
experience to show for it. If you're okay with hiring a junior freelance
graphic designer Kingston, then recent graduates and students can be
a good choice. It is also true that an experienced freelance graphic designer
would charge more rates as compared to a designer who's relatively new to this
industry. You can save some money in the process of hiring a young graduate
graphic designer. However, money should not be the sole criteria when you are
making a choice because it is rightly said that there is no substitute to
experience.
Experienced
freelance graphic designer takes less time in delivering assigned projects and
understands the needs and requirements of his clients so that he can work
accordingly. The choice is yours; experience or less cost? Each option has its
own benefits, but if you're seeking top quality then go for an experienced
freelancer.
