As a graphic designer, what else do you do to stay ahead

[Heatman]

Well from my experience if you want to be ahead as a graphic designer you need to be very innovative and creative with your work because it is the only way that your work is going to be distinct and unique after it's done.

As a graphics designer I try as much as possible to be creative and innovative in any design I'm doing so as to be ahead of others. There are thousands of graphics designer out there and it isn't easy at all to land a job in this role. If you are not creative at all you will find it hard to make money.

As a graphic designer, apart from having a portfolio and being modern in design. A graphic designer should also be willing to learn new things. New designs comes out everyday.

You'll have to stay updated with other newer colours that are on the release. Another thing is that you'll have the updated information about newer works, you'll also take note of what other people are doing in same field as well.

I am not a graphic designer but I design my own graphics. I stay ahead in the field by not only offering services but also creating my own products and sell my products to make passive income.
