There are so many things I found when I was getting my business started that I wasn't prepared for...

Client communications can be a real struggle when starting a graphic design business, and as an example, I want to tell you a quick story.

When I was first started working with clients I felt very disorganized and truly out of sorts.

One day I picked up a call from a client who was asking about some revisions he sent over. I ignorantly told him I saw his message and the changes would be made asap, thinking I would find his message, but I never did.

So I had to call the client back, tell him I lost his message and that I needed him to resend. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!

Needless to say, client communication within a graphic design business is extremely time consuming and can be frustrating. That is why I think it is crucial when starting and structuring your graphic design business to make sure you have a system in place to handle client revisions and communications.

So I went on a pursuit to make a change in my business.

I needed to fine tune my graphic design business in order to become systemized, organized, and efficient with my time and money.

There are a lot of great tools out there for project management, but what I found (personally as a graphic designer) is that these tools were either too robust and cumbersome or to simple and unhelpful.

I needed a system that was tailored to my work as a designer.
