What do you find difficult about graphic design?

[Shortie]

As much as we may love graphics design, there may be some areas which we find difficult and in some cases means we have to avoid working with that kind of option needed

As a graphics designer yourself, what would you say is the most difficult part?

Stay updated with how fast thing change in technology is one of my serious challenges with graphics designing. It's so hard keeping up with the latest technology and continuously learning all the time can be so overwhelming.

Yes, this is a big challenge. To focus more on staying up to date is never easy. I have used social media platforms to help me achieve that.

There's nobody that can say they became expert immediately they started or even didn't experience some difficulty in designing.

Sometimes, I found colour combinations too difficult especially when I have complicated designs to do.

The first place which I faced challenges as a new graphics designer was choosing the right tools and software to be start out with. It was never easy because there was so many of them to pick from.

After this, it's now learning how to use each and every one of them I ended up choosing. When I was able to do that, it was a smooth sail for me.

Knowing how to use each tool is the most difficult part of this. It is not as easy as anyone would say especially for someone who is starting fresh on this journey.

The most difficult aspect of being a graphics designer is being able to get clients to order for your services. You can learn and master anything in graphics designing if you put your mind into it but getting clients is something you can't control.

Being able to handle clients that have a lot of unnecessary demands. Some clients try to be cunning by asking more than what you bargained for. It can be a challenge to deal with such ones.

I have seen and have some encounters with these clients. The important thing I have done and it has helped me is that I will send the previous works and their prices, then allow them to choose.

When they ask unnecessary questions, I will only tell them that we don't do that in the business or is she ready to pay extra for the time wasted.

We are all learning, no matter how professional we might be. So there are times when you have to make research and do a lot of practice before you get a project right. As long as you are open to learning, you won’t consider it as hard or a challenge.

This can only be possible when you are not very clear from the beginning when you are having your work arrangement and conclusion with your client. If everything is discussed and agreed before any job is started, there is no way someone can use being cunning to change things.

I understand what he's saying. Being cunning in the sense that they will be asking the questions in a gentle way unless you are one of those that don't stand any silly acts from clients.
