Doing a project a day (or round-about that) has really given me a new sense of purpose and has re-ignited my creativity! I'm sketching daily, investing time into reading articles, taking more pictures.... They're little things but they all add up. I find myself daydreaming of my next photoshop creation or drawing. I find myself choosing the computer chair over the couch and a show. I feel I've found my way back onto my path!
So as an effort to come off as more put-together as a designer (and also to encourage myself to feel more put-together), I've developed an invoice layout, quote layout and have reworked my c.v. so that everything is in line with my portfolio and business card!
My end goal here is appear as professional as my design work but I think it will also benefit by showing clients that I cross my t's and dot my i's. Hopefully, this will encourage their trust in me and therefore they may be more inclined to accept a higher quote :). Let's face it, clients can be cheap and first impressions count!
As a reminder, here's what my business card looks like:
Here's the first page of my portfolio book:
First page of my pdf portfolio:
A page from my pdf portfolio:
First page from my CV:
Front page of a quote. The invoice looks very similar...
Any thoughts, my people?
