Imagine sitting in a small swimming pool filled with ping-pong balls and being asked to hold all the balls under water at the same time. Inevitably, juggling all the ping-pong balls becomes too much and they start popping up to the water’s surface.
The life of an in-house marketing/communication team can sometimes seem like this when several projects are coming down the pike at once, and there simply aren’t enough hands on deck to complete the work.
Fortunately, an experienced outside design firm is a great resource for handling any overflow work that pops up.
Since in-house design teams are typically small, it can wreak havoc on scheduling when a staff member is on vacation, experiencing a health emergency or out on parental leave. Utilizing an experienced design firm is a great way to alleviate that stress. Even if your full team is present, having a major design project coming up on top of your regular work schedule can seem overwhelming.
A seasoned design firm can jump in and help with the following:
- Large projects (e.g., conferences)
- Evolving brands
- Annual Reports
- Special One-time Projects
- Exhibits
- Membership Campaigns
- Media Kit
In addition to providing relief, a design firm can serve as a consultative partner. An expert design team has experience from which to draw, so you can be confident in the work they perform and the advice they offer. They can anticipate potential issues (helping you keep all your ping-pong balls under control) and bring a depth of experience to everything from specialty reports to conference packages.
