7 Ways Designers Can Get Their Foot In The Door


To reach milestones or achieve anything the primary consideration is to get through the first step. Similarly, to become a designer be it website or graphics one needs to have a basic understanding about the subject for which a degree, diploma or a certification course in that field becomes quintessential. Here we talk about seven different ways to get your foot in the door:


1. Look for a mentor : Having the right guidance is a stepping stone of your initiative. A good mentor will not only guide you better but will also show you the mirror of your mistakes.


2. Use LinkedIn and other social sites : Build your professional network, showcase your work portfolio on social media where you can get maximum visualization and recommendations and even suggestions. Good deal, isn’t it?


3. Take up free lancing work : It is suggested to take work voluntarily without charging anything so that you can attain finesse in your work with every project undertaken, which in turn will strengthen your credibility in the long run.


4. Get your work or portfolio review : It’s good to keep working, but whether or not you are heading in the right direction becomes a big question, which can be answered only by an expert. Get your work reviewed for better insights and execution of your creative ideas.


5. Start a blog : In conjunction with your presence on social media sites, blogs can be the frontier of your voice and portfolio. Or you can become a guest author and write on several other portals, raising your voice and ideas on creativity and breakthroughs in the same field thereby letting you connect on an international scale.


6. Network in conferences and conventions : Make your way out to business conferences on similar topics wherein experts of the field gather to share the diversity of creativity giving you a chance to explore or learn more and more over if possible letting you leave a mark among them with your knowledge sharing.


7. Act : To reach somewhere it is necessary to move ahead. Crawl, walk or run but the key is to keep moving ahead and that too in the right direction. Nothing is there to stop your vigor and zeal once you decide to get on your passion and chase your dreams.
