If you're like me and you're good with content and picking the right words and language to use for your article, chances are that you are not as good with design. I suck at design, but I think I'm good right?I always know what I want a design to look like, but ultimately I have no clue what fonts, colors, and elements to pick. I can scribble it for you on a piece of paper, but beyond that I'm pretty much useless.Unless you're a superhero multitasker / IQ wizard you're probably not gonna be good at both. And if you lack the design talent or capabilities you're probably going to think of hiring someone to do the work for you.
The problem is that it's hard to find the right designer, with the right vision for your project. You also might be debating whether it's just worth it to hire a designer to be on your staff full-time, which is another conversation all in it self.Instead of going into the boss's office and asking for a new design budget all you need is a simple tool called Canva.Convert is a program built for marketers content writers and business people that aren't design savvy. It is filled with templates most of them free some of them are a dollar that help you bring your project to fruition very easy steps.For a more comprehensive list of Canva tutorials click here.
