Questions about hiring an infographic designer
Straight answers to what NZ business owners ask us most.
How do I get started?
Create a brief describing your audience, data and outcomes. Freelancers apply, you review applications, and Unicorn Factory makes warm introductions so you can discuss scope and price.
How long will a project take?
Timing depends on complexity — a single social asset can be a few days; report‑level work commonly takes 2–6 weeks. Agree a timeline with shortlisted freelancers when you review applications.
What do I need to provide?
Provide source data (CSV/Excel), branding assets (logos, colours), the target audience and any mandatory messages — freelancers can help clean and structure data where needed.
Can freelancers handle sensitive or technical data?
Many designers work with technical or policy content, but confirm relevant experience in applications. Discuss data handling, confidentiality and approvals directly with the freelancer.
How do I know a freelancer is a good fit?
Review portfolio examples and ask for similar work. After you publish a brief, relevant freelancers will apply; you review their profiles and then get warm introductions from Unicorn Factory to start conversations.
