Design into money

[Dilip]

How good are you at turning your designs into money? I have seen wonderful artists who are very bad when it comes to generating revenue. Are you successful in that aspect?

 

[Henry]

I am still building my capacity to be able to turn designing into money. It hasn't been easy, but it is something that I am glad that I am working on.

 

[Shortie]

I have designed logos for webmasters in the past that have made me a little bit of money but I wouldn't say it is something I can make a living from.

I believe if I was to spend more time learning more about graphics and working on my skills, it could be something I could turn into making more money.

With AI around, a lot of designing is consumed that way. Most AI engines train themselves on art work by regular graphics artists.

The honest truth is that when it comes to being able to sell your graphic design skills, it is always very difficult because it is a very competitive market. If you are not very good at what you are doing, it is going to be very difficult for you to sell such services. A lot of designer's are on Fiverr trying to sell their services but it's not all of them are being successful.

 

[Dilip]

True, these days everyone is jumping into graphics design. AI tools made it even easier.

 

[Axel]

There are some websites where you have a couple of chances to sell your graphics designed work and make money. I've sold some of mine in iStock.

It can be hard to monetize your designs, especially if you are just starting that out for the first time. But if designers put in effort in their marketing they can start generating revenues in no time.

It can be hard when you are trying to be a jack of all trade in designing. The easiest way is to find a niche and develop a good skill on it, generate a good revenue on it.

I don't know if I am fit to do this, I'm not an architect but I hope the professionals should give it a try. It's either you are financially compensated or you are among the winners. Good luck to anyone that's going for that.
