Do I Need To Hire A Professional Graphic Designer?

Good graphic design matters to your business.

Small and medium businesses often undervalue professional design work. When finances are tight, creative budgets are usually the first to be cut, and if marketing is done in-house, this will often result in employees being asked to have a go at DIY design to save money. Unfortunately, this rarely ends well.

A beautiful website, powerful logo and persuasive marketing material cannot be produced on the cheap or by someone who hasn’t had the right training. Only a professional graphic designer can deliver design solutions that pack a punch and will make a difference to your business.

What Can A Graphic Designer Do For My Business?

It’s easy to assume that graphic design is easy, that we all could have a crack at it given the time. But before you put that graphic design quote in the bin, consider the following.

Good Design Converts

An attractive website is nice, but having one that converts is better. A good graphic designer understands that effective design doesn’t just look pretty, it entices and persuades users to take action. Whether it’s buying your products or signing up for your newsletter, professional graphic design will help deliver quantifiable results for your business.

First Impressions Count

Every business faces competition, and whether it’s via your website or the logo on your business card, you only have one chance to make a first impression. Those first few seconds when your potential customers are judging your business are based on visual appeal. So, no matter how good your product or service is, without high-quality design it’s unlikely anyone will stick around to find out.

Brand Consistency Can Be a Differentiator

To stand out from the competition, your business needs a point of difference. This might be quality products, excellent customer service or competitive rates, but it could also be visual communication. Humans are visual creatures and well thought out, professional graphic design across every aspect of your business (website, logo, packaging and EDM for example) can help your business stand out and make it unique. In combination, the right colours, typeface, imagery and mood tell a story, and will make your business memorable in the minds of your potential customers.
