Time Travel Tips: How to Get Your Designer to Create Something for You "Yesterday"

Hey there, it's your friendly Brand Weaver here, and I'm here to share some tips with you on how to help your designer create something for you "yesterday". Let's face it, we've all been in a situation where we need a design project done ASAP. Whether it's for an upcoming event, product launch, or social media campaign, there are times when we need to work magic in a short amount of time.

But how can you make sure that we’re able to work quickly and efficiently while still producing high-quality work? The key is to be as prepared as possible. Here are some tips on how you can help designers achieve that:

Get all copy fully approved and signed-off

Before you come to a designer, make sure that all copy and messaging is fully approved and signed-off by all necessary parties. This will save us time and prevent any unnecessary changes down the road.

Give your designer a clear brief

It's important to provide designers with a clear brief that outlines the scope of the project, specific requirements, and any relevant information. This will help us understand your vision and create a design that meets your expectations.

Share your likes and dislikes

If you have any specific likes or dislikes when it comes to design, let us know (were not mind readers!). This will help your designer create a design that aligns with your brand and style.

Be on hand for rapid feedback

When working on a tight deadline, it's important that you're available to provide feedback and answer any questions that designers may have (I know it sucks but if your designer is putting in the effort, you have too as well!). This will your designer move quickly and avoid any unnecessary delays.

By following these tips, you'll be able to set any designer up for success and ensure that they are able to create something for you "yesterday". But remember, even with all the best preparation a designer may not be able to help you out last minute becuase of other commitments, so the best plan is to always be prepared and ask for your design with pleanty of time before your final deadline.
