Feeling trapped? How to get more freedom with on-demand design
Whoever said that owning a business will give you more time and freedom must be exiled to an island by themselves, without an Internet connection and fresh water.
If you tried entrepreneurship because of such a “promise”, I’m sure that by now, you’ve noticed it’s not as easy as it seems. I even heard cases of people feeling trapped even before their first company anniversary!
Starting a business means you’ll have to wear many hats and work hard. And when you start hiring people to help you out, you’ll find yourself working even harder to be a good boss and keep the company running smoothly.
The bigger your business gets, the harder it is to delegate tasks and responsibilities. But don’t worry, there’s a solution!
One very cool way of offloading your tasks without having to micromanage anyone is to delegate some of your work to unlimited services.
Let’s say you need some help with your design tasks. You can subscribe to an on-demand design service that can take care of the work for you. And the best part? You won’t even have to worry about sourcing, hiring, and training new people.
How on-demand design increases freedom
Have you ever noticed how much faster you receive emails compared to snail mail? Some inventions, if used well, can free us from boring tasks and allow us to focus on the things we love to do.
And that’s where on-demand design services come in! Here are some cool things you can do with them:
1. You’re free to choose who you work with
Sometimes, you don’t need to hire a full-time designer or commit to a long-term contract. Instead, you can work with a designer on a project-by-project basis and adjust your needs as they change.
And with Deer Designer, you can even ask your account manager to change your designer if you need someone more suited to work with that particular skill
2. You’re free to reallocate your budget
Designer-on-tap services can be cost-effective because you don’t have to pay for overhead costs like office space or equipment. The designer you’re working with already has their tools and equipment.
Plus, you can upgrade or downgrade your subscription depending on your needs. You only pay for the work you need.
3. Free your time
On-demand design services can save you hours of searching for a designer. Just send us your request, and your account manager will pair you up with the best designer that fits your brand.
And you can skip the lengthy hiring process and get started on your project asap.
4. You’re free to explore
With an on-demand design service, you have access to diverse skill sets. If you want to try an experimental web design, just send us your brief, and we’ll give you options to choose from.
We work in “squads”, which are groups of designers with different skill sets, so we can match you with a designer that specializes in the type of design you need.
And that’s not all! With on-demand design subscription services, you have the freedom to experiment and try new things without the fear of wasting money.
You can try out different fonts, graphics, and templates until you find the perfect fit for your project.
This allows you to be more creative and take risks with your designs without worrying about financial consequences.
5. Free from copyright issues
And the best part? These services often offer exclusive content that you won’t find anywhere else. This means your designs will be unique and stand out from the rest. Who doesn’t want to be a trendsetter?
Plus, you’re free from copyright issues, which can be a huge relief.
Want to break free? Here’s the secret:
If I said that you’d be instantly free after you subscribed to Deer Designer, I would be lying and deserve to be exiled to an island alone without an Internet connection and freshwater.
To really get the most out of any tool or subscription, there are a few things you need to do:
- Integrate it with your current processes
- Be clear and specific with your instructions
- Use it consistently
- Give feedback to your design team
By following these steps and providing actionable feedback, you can trust your design team to create the graphics you need without any micromanagement or endless revisions.
That means you can finally enjoy the benefits of your business – that’s true freedom!
