So, what do you do when a client doesn’t give you a graphic design brief?
Maybe someone’s reached out asking you to take on a job…
You’ve had a quick chat, maybe exchanged a few emails, but there’s no real direction.
Just a couple of loose ideas and a vague goal.
And now you’re expected to start designing.
You could wing it…
But let’s be honest, that’s risky.
Because without a clear brief, you’re flying blind.
And that can lead to confusion, wasted time, and work that misses the mark.
But what if you had a better way forward?
What if you had your own set of tools to build a professional design brief yourself, quickly, clearly, and confidently no matter what type of project you have?
Well, in this class, I’m going to show you exactly how to do that.
I’ll walk you through how to acquire all the key information and then create your own graphic design brief from scratch, using my custom InDesign and Illustrator templates.
So whether you’re working in-house, freelancing or just starting out, this episode will give you everything you need to get your projects off the ground with clarity and purpose.
Let’s dive in.
