Look For A Graphic Designer Who Can Make Your Products Shine

Talking about ‘making an impact’ and ‘standing out’ is standard fare when graphic designers discuss brochures, newsletters or marketing generally. With your prospects being exposed to around 7,500 marketing messages each week, graphic design that makes you stand out IS essential.

But there is a missing ‘must have’ ingredient if graphic design is to play a significant role in your marketing strategy: salesmanship!

To get the right result, one of the things I look for is a graphic designer who, BEFORE they start on the design concept, actually READS the copywriter’s work.

If you haven’t been down the track with a few graphic designer, this may seem surprising. After all, wouldn’t you expect a graphic designer would want to understand the sales pitch?

You sure would.

Sadly, many don’t.

This issue is caused because many designers are not sales people at heart. They are artists. And as the well-known adage goes, “The world is full of starving artists”. Which is a problem if you are looking for help to sell your products and services.

But when it comes to your brochure or web site, you need a graphic designer who understands marketing and is serious about helping you to sell more. With this in mind, I recommend you look for a designer who will:

Look for ways to highlight the benefits in your copy – because they know that buyers look for benefits. Showcase your products in a way that adds perceived value and makes them more desirable. Draw people through your brochure – so they don’t have to struggle with ‘artistic’ typography. Make it easy for people to read – so they act NOW to spend money with you. Support your branding – so your marketing is consistent and strong.

All of those issues affect your bottom line and are important.

Always remember, your designer must do more than give your brochure ‘impact’ or make your advert ‘stand out’. They must be pragmatic enough to know that it doesn’t matter how much your brochure ‘wows’ your staff, or how ‘professional’ your friends tell you your advert looks – what REALLY matters is whether it is making YOU money!
