Design Stories:
How To Get Clients & Collaborators To Value Your Expertise
Join Nancy Wu at Creative Pulse on Thursday, Aug 30th
Do you feel like a plastic bag?
Your clients think you are moderately useful — but not valuable. Your work is needed — but you are replaceable.
So you drift through your career, wishing people would value your unique talents and expertise.
Nancy Wu has been a designer for over 25 years.
But it wasn’t until she became a freelancer that she has discovered three key communication strategies that aren’t being taught in design schools.
These strategies have helped Nancy win a spot in the Communication Arts Design Annual. More importantly, they’ve helped her create repeat relationships with clients who trust her and promote her work.
On Aug 30, Nancy will share the strategies she discovered so far on her personal journey as a designer.
Freelancers, agency creatives, and account managers can attend this Talk + Social to discover:
- The reciprocal effect of genuinely caring about the client
- How to understand objectives early and use them to evaluate decisions
- How storytelling can be used to create buy-in
Join us at /Archive Digital (behind Brewhall) for tasty beverages and pizza—and discover a better way to get your clients and collaborators to value your expertise.
