“A picture paints a thousand words”

The way something is presented graphically influences the way its intended audience perceives it. In studies in communication arts, the medium is the message. You can deliver your message with one single image or in hundreds of images. When you want to advertise a product or a service, you want your graphical representation to be consistent with what you want your audience to think about you. There are even studies that show how particular shades of color affect the way an audience reacts to the messages that are presented on a particular media. Many businesses on the internet succeed in making their websites popular simply due to excellent graphic design. Given that you have an excellent product or service that has been proven to be beneficial to your customers, you need to give as much attention to your graphic design as you do with your advertising copy. With the cut-throat business environment nowadays, the difference in revenues lie not only in the quality of your products and services but also in how you are able to convince your potential customers that what you have is indeed the best.

Here are some tips on what makes a good graphic design:
1. Choose your colors carefully. This is very basic. You do not want to have clashing colors on your website or marketing material. You want your audience to be drawn to your material and not be repelled by it.
2. Go for graphic continuity without being monotonous. This is one way of putting your stamp on your materials. Your materials should have one look but not necessarily be replicas of one another. You want your audience to know that the material they are reading or looking at is from your company just from its feel and tone.
3. Use eye-catching but not distracting elements to draw your audience’s eyes to something that you want to emphasize. In direct mailers, this is achieved by printing sticky notes with arrows pointing to the offer and a little note that tells the reader that it is a once in a lifetime offer. In websites, you can have flashing blast outs or highlighted blinking text. There are a lot of options to choose from. The bottomline is that you want to attract and not distract.

There are a lot of resources and tips on how to do your own graphic design in the internet. If you are hesitant about doing it yourself, you can actually hire me as your graphics designer to do the work for you. Depending on your skills and budget, you can go with either one.
