Starting a Design Business Online? 5 Tips to Make it Memorable
Launching your own design business from scratch is no small task.
Despite the fierce competition out there, there are strategies for starting on the right foot and making your online presence felt in the fast-moving design market.
1. Find Your Niche
Analyse where your expertise, passion, purpose, and financial sustainability can overlap. Discovering this niche allows you to focus on the needs of the right target audience, and compete to the best of your ability and unique selling point.
2. Define The Specific Client Base
Your resources can’t stretch to win everybody. Play it smart by identifying the people whose interests and pain points match your specialties and solutions. Once you can internalise the prospects’ insights, you’ll be able to tailor effective marketing steps to become their go-to business.
3. Create A Unique Brand DNA
Distinguished brand DNA is essential for strengthening your recognition. So, ask yourself, “If my brand was a person, what outstanding personalities and values would set me apart among the target market?”. Then translate your consistent DNA across all visual elements and marketing communication materials.
4. Sell Your Service Via The Right Platforms
Websites, social media, and internet communities are powerful tools to accelerate your niche. Choose ones that will optimise your business objectives and audience, before constantly sharing resonant content and promoting the service.
5. Pay Attention To The User Journey
From smooth website navigation to professional service interaction, any customer touch point counts when building an impressive online brand. Make sure all experiences are positive for prospects’ emotions and expectations.
