Flyer on the fly

This is a flyer that was needed post-haste. Grabbed a licensed NYC image and played with the layout and content provided. Designed in Photoshop and Illustrator in pretty short order.

Banner ads and web site headers designed for next to nothing!

In my neverending search for ways to make money online (check out my Get Rich Slowly blog), I ran across Fiverr. At Fiverr you can post products and services that you are willing to provide for five dollars. Everything is five dollars. People will sing for you, do promos of your business, writer you message on their lips. If nothing else, it's fun to see all of the stupid things people are willing to do for a five spot.

I'm not quite so adventurous and pretty much stuck to what I know. So, I offered to design a banner ad or website header for five dollars. I also offered to send an electronic version of the Dirty Joke Show Joke Book for five dollars.

Here is what I sent a client requesting a website header. In the future I will not probably give them so many options.

Four-page, four-color commercial construction company brochure

In the past year I have been fortunate enough to have landed a number of diverse freelance jobs, from a brick-and-mortar bookstore, to a catering truck. I did a successful email marketing campaign for a tool repair company and created social networking projects and SEO and SEM for a number of new clients.

This is one of the pages from a four-page, four-color brochure I designed for a commercial builder. The company was expanding with a partnership with another builder and needed logos designed, letterhead, business cards and three brochures. All done to the client's satisfaction in very short order.

Tool Repair Marketing Piece

Simple and sweet.

This marketing piece is targeted directly to machine shop owners who know that "Damaged Indexable Tools Suck!"

When the client called, I had no idea what an indexable tool was. I thought that if I broke my hammer I could just take it to this guy.
