Graphic Design Tips
For Designers and Entrepreneurs

Do you need graphic design tips? Don't know where to look?

You've come to the right place. Not only do I want to help businesses market themselves more effectively, I want to help other designers (and writers) hone their craft. So my "tips" pages are devoted to sharing the information I find most useful for me when I'm designing.

For example, what makes a good website design ? What doesn't? Where can you go to find ideas for good website design? I can help you find resources, or provide some of them right here.

Or maybe you need something simpler: Logo design, stationery set design or business card design. I can help you create designs that will make you a sought-after designer – or a more successful business owner.

The Most Important Design Tip

I've studied a lot of direct mail pieces and course on graphic design. Do you know what the most important graphic design tip out there is?

Make your design support the words. The design isn't the centerpiece of your marketing - the words are! If you clutter up the message with too many glitzy graphic gimmicks, your customer is not going to see the message, much less understand it.

What other design dilemmas do you have? Newsletter not going together the way you want it to? Brochure looking too much like everyone else's?

If you like to design newsletters or brochures - or if you're not really a designer, but your boss wants you laying out the newsletter for your company - my tips can help you make a clean, professional look that's easy to read.

Maybe you own a small business and design your own marketing materials. Just want more design tips so you can do the layouts yourself? I've got resources to help you with direct mail design, letterhead design, envelope design, even designing reply cards for your sales mailings.
