General Hints and Tips
Communicate as much as possible with creatives to paint a picture of what you want to achieve, your target audience, etc.
Even if you don't know exactly what you want by the end of the process - start with a brief including context, SWOT and requirements.
See this as a collaborative experience, allow for the brief to be refined, and keep in conversation. This is all a part of the process.
Use visual reference points whenever you can when talking about things you like / don't like. This way you can narrow down your visual identity.

FAQ
🔸 What if I don't know where to start?
Fear not, if you can’t work out what you think your problem is. It sounds like you need a strategist or consultant to work with to get to the bottom of what your issue is. It’s a perfectly valid request to ask for help with. You should be posting an opportunity to simply ask for help to determine what you need!
🔸 Is Goodsted will be free for non-profits even after Volunteers Week?
Yes, our platform will be forever free for non-profits and impact startups that seek support.
🔸 Should I only sign up for Goodsted if I seek support in creative areas?
No, you can sign up even if you need support in other areas! Creative skills have the highest demand on our platform, however, if you’re struggling with another task or challenge and need support, you can also post that as an opportunity and we’ll do our best to spread the word about your opportunity to find you the support you need.
🔸 When I post an opportunity on Goodsted, can I also share it on other platforms and channels?
Yes definitely! Opportunity pages can be easily shared with a unique link anywhere you want. We actually encourage you to share your opportunity page through your own social media channels as well so that you can give your community an easy way to offer their support to you.
