Graphic Design Goal

Graphic design is based on objective goals, not subjective opinions like "I like red!" The design of your ads, brochures, newsletters, proposals, and web site should be determined by the image you want to communicate.

Guerrilla Marketers take an active role in working with graphic designers, commercial printers and web site designers by describing, in detail, the image they want to project. Guerrillas can define the image they want to communicate, whether it's "classic" workmanship, contemporary "cutting edge" technology, or "safe haven" investments in a troubled world.

The more they define their market and their position relative to their competition, the better a job business owners can do in directing the work of the specialized talents they hire to help them.

Your Riskiest Business Decision - Greetings All I was just thinking about my own Graphic Design business and how I've made risky decisions in the past. One of these decisions involved taking on a long term, full time contract at the expense of losing new and existing clients for the next 2 years, as well as having to satisfy existing clients on the weekends. Would the contract kill my entire freelance business after 2 years? Would it be worth it? As I'm nearing the end of the 2 year contract and I would have to say that it's paid off. This is because I managed to run my own business on the side (weekends) to retain most of my existing clients so when/if I decide to go back to full time freelancing I won't have to start from the beginning again. In saying this I would like to know of any risky business decisions that you have made and whether it paid off or not? My 2 year contract decision did pay off but I also lost two good clients because I did not have the time to efficiently satisfy their requests.
