Time Management

For the whole of the EP, COP and PPP modules a diary was kept to keep on top of individual projects so they could be managed more easily and deadlines could be made more clearer.

Charging clients, my hourly rate and creating invoices

After finishing the A5 publication for live brief and collaboration for A Road Magazine, there was no payment involved. However, after the deadline for the magazine was complete and I had provided my own copies for the magazine for my own submission (was not necessary for the clients deadline) which cost. I was approached asking to convert the magazine layout into a A4 format, to which I took upon myself as a chance to do some paid work.

• I had never charged a client before so this was something new for myself as a now working professional.
• After some research into prices of hourly rates for graphic designers, I personally felt the average £40 was perhaps too much for this particular job
• So I took it down to £18 per hour and gave the client a time frame of 2-3 hours as an average for how long it would take me

My invoice template

• Fits in with self branding, using same type and similar layout to CV design
