Hey!
I’ve been a graphic designer since 2006. Your business deserves amazing branding no matter what phase you’re in and I’m here to help!
I’m sure I’m not the only one looking to save a little money in my business these days. With my toddler still home with me full time, my time is precious and I can’t take on as many clients as I once did, but that doesn’t mean that my businesses expenses go down. I still have to keep up with my client management systems, email marketing provider, design apps and so much more!
So whenever I can, I try to get things on sale or subscribe to apps for the year since you usually get a deal over paying month to month.
The sales that I’m sharing today are all tools that I’ve used in my business for YEARS to keep things running smoothly. Check them out and if they seem like a good fit, I hope my sale codes can help you a bit!
I’m using affiliate links so I’ll get a tiny reward with no additional cost to you!
P.S. I’m publishing this a little bit early so that you have time to plan but please note the dates listed under each sale for when the discounts are live!
Dudsado is hands down, my favorite biz tool. It’s a business management solution designed to cut out the busywork. Build relationships, schedule appointments, and create workflows to streamline your projects from start to finish.
You can set up a workflow once and then your systems are on autopilot. It captures leads on your website (your contact form, for example), can automatically send those leads a proposal, then a contact, then an invoice (in whichever order you prefer.) You can set payment reminders, there’s a client portal, bookkeeping, and just so much goodness.
SALE DETAILS:
$30/month or $300/year. If you sign up now, you’re locked into these rates forever! PLUS get an extra 20% off through the links in this post. So for example, that’s an additional $60 off if you sign up for the year!
SALE DATES:
Tuesday, November 23rd at 10am PT to Tuesday, November 30th at 2:00pm PT. My 20% off code doesn’t expire but the sale price does.

Gotta be honest, I had NO idea what I was doing with my client contracts until I grabbed my template from The Contract Shop!
Within 10 minutes, I had a contract template and was customizing it to suit my business. It was super easy to add in my own details and I feel waaaay more confident knowing my contract has been vetted by someone who actually knows what they’re talking about! I use their graphic design templates and their terms and conditions template. Want to read more about why contracts are so important?

As a designer, I ignored Canva for way too long. I thought using my Adobe programs, which is indistry standard, was enought. BUT Canva has been so amazing for being able to collaborate with my clients and I’ve recieved amazing feedback on my Canva templates ever since I launched them in 2019. It’s such an easy and intuitive way to create all the visuals (even video and animated graphics) for you business.
SALE DETAILS: UPDATE, Canva didn’t end up having a sale like I thought but I still highly recommend Canva Pro even if it’s not dicounted.
