It has long been held that confidence goes a very long way in building powerful long term design relationships. Building all your hopes and dreams with one designer could make you high and dry once they up their rates after you've committed to a job. So how can you go about finding a trustworthy graphic design company. Well here are some of the points that you must consider.
Word on the street
Some of the hippest young gunslingers should be found hanging out from the gin palaces and opium dens of this ghetto. To the uninitiated this might look like a frightening place to search for somebody trustworthy to perform your design short but perservere and you may get to hear about some secret layout assembly going down in the backroom of a crack festooned fleapit. Welcome to the dark world of the layout behemoths.
Playing the field
For instance one designer may be offering free lollipops with every logo design. Armed with this advice, strategy another design agency and see what kind of sweets you might be able to acquire from them in order for you to place an order. Who knows by this way of going back and forth you may have the ability to acquire a whole sackfull of candies at no additional cost. Sweeeeet!
Get Acquainted with your designer
Mixing business with pleasure can be a dangerous pastime but when you are looking to construct a long term design relationship, sometimes being bedfellows makes common sense. In much the exact same way as you'd be improbable to stab your husband or wife in the trunk (unless of course you wanted to murder your spouse in which case this makes great sense) it stands to reason that a designer you're regularly committing you to is probably going to be receptive to your own picky demands.
Money - the route of all evil?
Thus far we've discussed the emotional neccessity of maintaining a trusting relationship between designer and client. The other, sometimes neglected facet is a sound business trust between the two parties. Ask yourself this question: is that shifty looking graphic designer going to be dipping into your pocket as soon as you're out of this room? In case the solution is a likely yes then kick the devil in contact.
Listen to your heart
In the end of the day building up a trustful design relationship has to emerge out of both parties. But it's also important to trust your gut feeling of someone. There are a couple more points you should remain conscious of. Ginger haired people although renowned for their hostile character are 99% of the time fairly fair. Blonds will steal your last cent and leave you with some horrible layout work.
