Thank you for this video, been freelancing and this is helpful
It is good to hear from you as always something helpful, informative and inspirational.
dot second 👍
Please what are also the steps in making a very good resume as a graphics designer who is not yet experienced or still an entry level designer?
What is the best portfolio sites to start posting your designs as an entry lvl or non experienced designer too.
Thank you. 🙏
Came in at the right time.
Thanks man
Glad to hear it Tobi
Always on point ❤️🔥 I celebrate you bro 💪
Appreciate that Promzi
thanks for sharing , it's helpful !
Glad to hear that!
Hi, Tom. Very informative and helpful videos you create. Thanks a lot!
Please, could you in one of the next videos tell us more about the brand identity. Namely : brandbook, logbook, guideline with examples if possible. Of course, I understand that it is created individually, a lot of very features, depends on the type of company (business area), company size and other factors.
Yes, I already know some points and I know how to use "google". But you explain very well and I would really like to hear this information in your presentation.
What do you personally think Tom...is graphic design a creative profession or still a technical one?
Thanks again for the video, I will be glad if you answer:)
Best wishes!
Like your new setup and purple💜 vibe..
Thanks a lot. I have upgraded it again since shooting this vid
thank you for the lesson, this really helped me, it's just that on Fiverr I had problems with Timezone, most of the clients on Fiverr were Americans or Europeans , so at midnight here is noon at America, this sometimes makes it difficult for me to get a good response time
Thank you so much 🌹
Thanks for your valuable ideas ❤
Glad you like them
Hi there, I wanted to ask if it will be possible to be a free lancer while designing graphics on a smart phone?
Hey Satori what is your take on sending customized cold emails to prospects, doesn't it make you stand out?
How do you start networking? I've never really done anything like that.
Thanks for the video! What I found almost impossible is to get clients if you don't have any rating stars but then you can get any stars because you can get client to rate you.... Just like you said, that the first thing you look, so the people you have more clients/stars are the one's that will keep getting more and more!
What can you do about that!?
How do you then hire up and coming graphic designers if you're looking at star review first
Insightful 🌟
Bro could u tell how to start & get freelancing clients as a design construction engineer bcoz there are not much projects in my field which are given to freshers without 2yrs of experience in execution of design so how can i get through this problem & thrive in the uncertain phase ?
Pls what can u say about mobile graphic designers, is that also recommended
i'm just searching for this. it come in at the right time 😍 thanks tom 😘😘
Perfect!
@@SatoriGraphics yeah your are perfect ❤️❤️
Response time for other freelance designers also holds the same when trying to get clients. Trying to get potential clients to just communicate back is just horrible these days. So yeah, when that happened, it's a red flag to not work with them
I agree for sure. Its pretty important to take note of that
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Which platform you are using to make vedio?
Please do you have video on how to open account on fiverr
You've just said what my paid course said about freelancing. I want my money back!
lol sorry this was made after the course you watched :/
I have a question. What are the freelancing platforms for graphic designers? Can you do a tutorial of those, and how to use those accounts.
My favourites would be UpWork, PeoplePerHour and Toptal
Red pill / Blue pill Matrix reference maybe? 😲
Nice Very Technical
Cheers for the feedback :)
Having to get a client the very first one is always difficult especially when have nothing to show for and not sure how to overcome that
It's true, but you need to work up the ladder. You will likely have to work for the bottom run clients who pay little and don't expect amazing work in the first place.
@@SatoriGraphics sub niches doesn't really work on Fiverr people are looking for coloring books and not animal coloring book for example. Sub niches work well on market places
@@SatoriGraphics You've just answered my question above, awesome!
Do your own stuff and just post them around, the right people will be amazed and hit you up one day
Thanks for the video. Please I have a question I really need to ask. How do we send our finished work to our supposed client when you're done with all the designs. Which app, software or sites is used in sending them. Thanks alot!
I use Dropbox, Google Drive, or good old e-mail personally.
@@Nitro_Foundry Thank you so much for the reply.🙏 How about Google photos app?
Yeah I use google drive too.
Hi Tom, I love how much effort you put into your content. Like many, many other people, I truly value and support your work.
There’s a question that’s been going on in my mind that I’ve been hesitant to ask. If it’s alright with you, I would like to ask that question respectfully.
Here : Your logo is clean, minimal and looks nice. However, I can’t help but be reminded of Squarespace every time I look at it. Is that alright in logo design? Could you educate me on how it’s alright to have similarities ?
Thanks again. I will probably delete this in few days because I don’t want any negative comments bothering you. But it would be great if I get any answer before that.
Love and respect. Always.
Thanks for the comment.
Here's the run down about that logo.
Firstly I rarely ever use it and Satori Graphics is more linked back to a brand identity rather than having a logo as part of the branding system.
After I designed it, I was informed that it looks a bit like the Skillshare logo. To an extent this is true, but it isn't a copy and it shares slight similarities. It was annoying to realise this after I had designed it and hadn't taken the Skillshare logo into consideration. There is actually a 3rd logo out there from a different brand that also looks similar to Skillshare and also my logo. This kind of thing happens often because you need to consider how many logos exist in this day and age. It's almost impossible to make anything original without it looking similar to something else. If by accident or not.
I may go ahead and redesign it at some point, but like I said, I don't really ever use a logo. My profile picture is more of an icon within social media for Satori Graphics, along with font choice and colour scheme.
Edit: After doing some research into it, there are many logos that look similar, which just backs up what I said above.
The Shazam logo
The British Steel logo
Skillshare logo
- so yeah I will get around to redesigning it at some point.
Hi, But how do i get those stars if i'm just starting and also how do i set up the prices, again, if i'm just starting?
You need to start at the bottom, and take on projects that do not pay much at all. You also need a portfolio of work, even if it's design competition entires or fictitious briefs
@@SatoriGraphics Hey, thanks a lot!
3rd comment.
Satori 💞💞💞
Appreciate it :)
💪🙌🔥
:) :D
I'm working right now as a graphic designer but Truly I don't get any earnings even though i make some really clean graphics, and this is breaking my heart cz I've worked so hard but also I got no idea about how to make money.
It's all about marketing. A brand can make the best perfume but if they don't market it, nobody will buy it.
On the flip side, in the 70s pet rocks were being sold. People were mad about a rock that was packaged in a box as a pet. Why? Because of marketing
@@SatoriGraphics you made a video about this ?
and thank you so much for the informations
🖤🖤🖤
Naray vandha piragae, puriyudhu ulagai.
If your new , how tf do u ever get noticed ..u look at stars and badges which i will not have if i start
Social media presence
Note:
Stand out

👍👍👍
its work in iraq?
I would assume so, but I haven't tried 👍
Yeah its easier said than done 😅
Do I need to put up my smiley face on every thumbnail like CZcams? hehe
it might help, give it a go!
i love your content. but i think you should upgrade your setup, those thick bezels doesn't go with the modernity you try to represent.
True
Who said I'm going for modernity? It's an iMac bro
👍
:D
🔥🔥🎀🎀🔥🔥
A plateforme like fiverr prohibit you from asking for a review
UpWork and others don't mind
@@SatoriGraphics thank you for replying
You video editing is head's off man
Miss u
Hope you're all good
@@SatoriGraphics yes but did not work ri8 now try to continue in 2025 in sa Allah
Imagine charging 17 bucks for a logo. These freelance sites are a boon to the third world that can compete on ridiculous prices. For everyone else, it is impossible to survive on.

firstttttt
You got it this time bro 🏅
These overanimated and hard to read on this video shows how bad graphic design has evolved.
