So - ages ago, I mentioned how I do graphic design for clients apart from Hi, Society!  And I talked about how I didn’t publicize that too much because I didn’t have a website up for it.  But that was then.

Now, I’m pleased as punch to announce that the website for my design company - Element K Creative - is finally finished and live.  It took 4 months of planning, thinking about those plans, designing, thinking about those designs, getting constructive feedback from colleagues (thank you!), revisions, revisions, revisions, and execution, but it’s finally a reality.  And I couldn’t be more happy about it.  Check it out at http://www.elementkcreative.com.

Meanwhile, I’ve got several projects on the burners, including several new card designs for Hi, Society! Design Studio.  I’ll spill more details as we get closer to finalizing a release date.  And ummm… by “we,” I mean “me!”

Cheers!

I have a friend who reads Social Tools and loved my post about accountability where I decided to make getting my graphic design company’s site up and running a priority.  Every time he saw me on Facebook or when we spoke on the phone, he’d ask me, “So when will your site be up?”  And this constant questioning bugged me because honestly, I didn’t know.  But this is what happens when you publicize that you’re going to do something; people hold you accountable.  It’s a good thing.

This friend asked me again just a few minutes ago - we’re both night owls and are up chatting on Facebook - and I told him again that I didn’t know.  He replied, “Your [post] was so inspiring and motivated me, and now I see the truth of the matter.”

Hmm.  Ouch. (more…)

You probably don’t know that in addition to Hi, Society!, I have a design company - Element K Creative.  That’s probably because Element K doesn’t have a website.

Yet.

I’ve been able to put Element K’s website off this long because projects come in pretty steadily by referral, which is always great, plus I took a little time off to launch Hi, Society! Design Studio.  I was busy and kept saying, “I have sooo many projects to do that I don’t have time to design my own website.”

Excuses.  (And some of you know what excuses are.)  (more…)
