Web UI Design

👉Great design skills won't be enough if you can't meet a deadline. Whether you're a designer, illustrator or general creative – and whether you work in a studio, in-house or freelance – here are some of the lessons I learned over the years to help manage my time more efficiently:

✅ Systems, systems, systems.
Being able to prioritise is key to staying sane as a freelance designer. Assign certain periods to tasks in a calendar and have a daily to-do list that you can tick off. Also, try different apps and software and see which workflows work best for You.

✅ Be honest about timing
Be realistic about how long things will take. I know that at times it can be difficult to evaluate how many hours a project might take, and that why I always recommend to use a digital stopwatch and regularly record the time it takes for you to complete specific tasks. Ove time, you will become more and more accurate, and you'll start making wiser time management choices.

✅ Stop clients sucking up your time
Clients can be demanding; that's a given. But if you find yourself spending more time responding to a constant barrage of requests that you are working on the project, then you need to let the client know – politely – that their emails or phone calls are becoming unproductive.

✅Consider implementing a schedule for responding to clients and make this clear from the outset. Managing expectations is a key skill you must develop over time to have a successful design career.
