TOOLS WE LOVE

DESIGN TOOLS TO HELP WITH YOUR WEB SITE AND DIGITAL MARKETING

Let's face it, there is an overload of information and products easily available online. It takes so much time to sift through reviews, test software and see what fits...... then you have to actually do the design. Here are some tools we use every day, and love! If it's not worth raving about, then it's not listed here.

NUMBER 1  couldn't create without it.

FREE online graphic design tool

CANVA makes everything possible. It's so easy to use, flexible and has templates for most social media sites.
  • Business Cards
  • Posters, flyers and invitations
  • Logos
  • Facebook posts and covers
  • Enhance photos by adding filters and text
  • Blogpost Header
  • the possibilities are endless......
Once you find you are using CANVA regularly, I do recommend that you upgrade to "CANVA for Work". The resize function makes it a lot more efficient to turn your logo into an email signature then into a business card then a Facebook cover.

​Explore CANVA, you'll be glad you did.

How to create a website that has personality.

It's all about the copy.

You know what it's like when you come across a website that instantly engages you. It makes you give your email address in a heartbeat and send links to your friends.  

So often clients have all of the content for their website. Every piece of information a client could possible want, all grammatically and technically correct. Somehow when it all comes together it seems like just another beige sweater in the beige sweater shop.

How do you give your site personality, how do you make your clients feel that they're having a conversation with a friend?
​It's all about the copy.
