Feedback Guidelines

I really appreciate simple and straightforward feedback. It helps me clearly understand your thoughts and make the right changes to your project.

Here are a few tips on providing awesome feedback:

  • Try and use bullet points to break up your feedback.

  • Use headers to organize your feedback.

  • Read over your feedback to make sure it’s clear and check that you’ve answered any questions I may have asked.

  • Email your feedback.

  • If you have team members that would like to add their feedback, I kindly ask that you gather the feedback into one message. This stops everyone from getting confused and keeps the project organized.

FAQ’s

  • Will I need the paid version of Canva?

    Nope! I use all free elements and free fonts in my template designs so that you can edit using the Free version of Canva. However, if you’d like to add me to your team to edit your Brand Kit, or if you need to upload fonts that aren’t included in Canva, then you will need the paid version of Canva. See prices here.

  • Will you show me how to edit the templates myself?

    Absolutely! At the end of your project, I offer a training video showing you how to manage and update your own templates. 

  • Will you send me the elements you used?

    For anything created outside of Canva, you will receive those files. Any elements owned by Canva will remain within Canva and won’t need to be sent.

  • What if I accidentally mess up my template?

    I recommend making a copy of the original file before editing so that you can always go back to the original design. I’ll show you how to do this in the training video.

Still not ready?

No worries. If you’d rather do it yourself, you can grab one of my pre-made templates here.
