Design Pickle

I've been using Design Pickle for a couple of years now on their Annual subscription to help me build out my Merch by Amazon and KDP accounts and have been really pleased with the service so far.

- You get to build up a relationship with your designer so over time they understand your style/requirements better
- For a little extra sub every month you get access to Getty Images stock library to use as source content for your designs, which is freakin awesome!
- The level of designs that I have received have been top notch most of the time
- The whole team speaks great English
- If you have a problem then the customer service team are there for you and actively want to help you and improve their service!

For me the best thing is that my Designer acts as my accountability partner.... basically, if I'm not giving him designs to work on, I'm paying for his time to do nothing, which makes me be sure to have enough briefs mapped out for him to work on!

They are fast and stay in good communication daily and weekly and always push for you to give more work for them to do thus gets you creating more

One of my biggest challenges, as a small business owner, was design work. I wanted to solve this problem with affordable graphics for our worksheets, blogs, social media posts and much more. I was no longer going to pay $550 for 1 design or deal with the many freelance platforms that often delivered inconsistent work. I was pretty frustrated when luck would have it another business owner referred me to Design Pickle.

I couldn't be more pleased with the designs I've received, they have reformatted worksheets, created e-book covers, providing blog banners, social media posts and more.

Diminishing quality of designs after the first 3-5 days. The quality gets worse, and so will the number of designs you receive (I now receive 2 crappy basic designs a day that I could make in Microsoft Paint). Customer support will reach out when you go to cancel, and don't care at all - in fact instead they will try to upsell you to the Pro plan which costs way more than their already absurd pricing.

EDIT: Design Pickle has reported my review attempting to get it removed claiming that I'm not a valid user. Classic.

I've only been using Design Pickle for one month and I know that they will be a strong partner to build my business with. While I have an eye for design, I can't rely on myself to do all the work while I run the business. Design Pickle and my designer have made it easy for me to delegate the work that is not critical for me to run my business and given me back my most valuable resource, my time, so I can focus on running the business.

We started with them month by month and had literally the world's best designer. Then we paid for a year and he got a promotion and got a dud replacement. Now we have a pretty good designer but no where near what we were expecting when we signed on for a year sadly. We love the service still but still felt a little bait and switch.

When I started with them a year ago- work was successful and they completed jobs in 24hrs. Correctly. Now, three or four revisions on almost every job and they still don’t meet basic concepts like bleed for print. And seems like they pace it so cannot get more than 2 things done. No professional work out them in months.
