Q. Can non-majors design logos?

I, too, was a non-engineering major, but after much trial and error, I was able to transition into becoming a logo designer. I also teach logo design classes, and as you can see from the reviews above, most of my students come from non-engineering backgrounds. Some of these students, with their drive, have even made a living through logo design. Just by learning a few formulas for logo creation, you'll be able to create logos efficiently.

Q. Can I design a logo even if I can't draw?

Being able to draw can give you more inspiration and help when creating a logo, but that doesn't mean you can't create a logo if you can't draw.

Q. How do you determine the price when selling?

In my case, at first, I was literally in the beginning stages, so I focused on generating revenue from a beginner's perspective, allowing me to learn and earn money at the same time. So, I started making designs for as little as 10,000 won. As my skills grew, I increased the fees to 50,000 won, 100,000 won, and finally 300,000 won.

Q. When I receive an order for sales, how should I create and deliver the logo?

When you sell a logo, you'll engage with clients on various talent marketplaces. We'll assess their needs, receive a work order form, negotiate a price, and collect payment. Payment isn't made immediately; Talent Market holds the funds. We then send the logo to the client, incorporate any revisions, and finalize the logo. Once the client approves, we receive final approval and collect the fee. (This process may vary depending on the talent marketplace.)

Q. Is there a way to sell it independently, rather than through Talent Market?

As I'll explain later, if you utilize social media to build your personal brand as a logo designer, you'll gain fans and customers, allowing you to sell your work on your own. You can do this by opening an open KakaoTalk account or other means to communicate.

Q. Are specifications important when it comes to laptops and PCs?

Whether you're working on a laptop or PC, speed and file storage capacity are key considerations. While not a standard, I personally recommend an i5 CPU, 8GB or more of memory, and a 256GB or higher SSD for Illustrator. Regarding storage capacity, there are also several cloud platforms that offer convenient file storage options, so I recommend checking them out before proceeding.

My name is Stanley, and I studied logo design on my own as a non-major. I sold over 200 logo designs in just one year, and later learned skills like detail page design, banner design, and web page production, and started living the life of a digital nomad that allows me to work two jobs.
