Finding a graphic designer in DFW can be harder than you think.  If you spend 15 minutes searching online, you can literally come up with 100 or more choices.  You have now created a second job trying to find someone to complete your first job.  It can be especially difficult choosing a DFW Graphic Designer if you are not familiar with all of the software and tools available.

We have tried to make things a little easier for you by creating a checklist of things you should ask a potential graphics dallas designer in DFW.

1.    Does the graphic design DFW firm have a portfolio of designs of previous work that is similar to what you are looking for?  For example, say you want a DFW graphic designer to design a tri-fold brochure for you.  Do they have samples of tri-folds they have designed already?
2.    Is the DFW graphic designer readily available? Are they booked with more work than they can handle or can they give you the attention you need.  Chances are you are not going to settle on the first proof that a graphic designer in DFW sends you.  Do they have the time to make the corrections you want in a timely manner.
3.    What does the graphic design DFW firm charge?  Do they charge per project or per hour? If they charge per hour, do you trust them enough to be honest? I would always recommend a per project payment for any graphic design DFW project.
4.    What are the payment terms for the graphic design firm in DFW? Do you have to pay everything up front, pay partial up front or pay once the job is complete? Chances are any DFW graphic design company is going to require a down payment.  But, do not be afraid to tell the graphic design firm that you will pay once the project is complete. They should understand your situation and realize that they hold most of the power because they can send you non-print ready artwork that you could never use if you don’t pay.
5.    Can the DFW Graphic Design firm handle all of your media needs or just graphic design?  It is very helpful if you can find a firm that will handle everything that you need, not just your logo or business card.  Find a graphic design firm in DFW that can also build your website, create a TV ad (if necessary) or build an email campaign.  Having the same graphic design company in DFW do all of your marketing campaigns will insure a consistent theme for all of your media campaigns.
