Will Robots Take Your Design Job? Michael Janda and Cassi Nicole // Low cost design solutions, pre-made templates, downloadable themes, Wix, Squarespace, oh my! There are a lot of ways for clients to solve their design needs for cheap. To combat this, there are two options for designers to retain validity in the future. First, they can master these low cost services and off low cost solutions to their clients by leveraging the quick to create, pre-made solutions. Or second, and my preferred choice, designers can look to expand their services to solve bigger client problems including brand strategy, marketing strategy, and business strategy. By building strategic expertise beyond just the design, you create a scenario where you are no longer an apples to apples comparison with a lower cost solution.
