I was in search of a solution for some of our high volume design work, specifically for our content that we share via our blog. We were previously using a variety of sources and the quality was lacking. Along came Design Pickle. Today I am placing 3 -4 orders per day and better than 90 are used without edits.

Design Pickle is a unique approach to getting design work completed. You need to spend time, share lots of details and allow the work to evolve. But DP is good about setting you with a regular designer, so your look and feel continues to mature and improve. Things get to a point that you feel like you have a remote designer on your team...but at a remote location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Design Pickle designers deliver ad creative variants, organic social media content builds, and static graphics in a fairly timely fashion. They're responsible for template development, batch creatives, and one-off posts of every format imaginable. Since we have other designers too, we use them to extend our capacity, not replace the function altogether. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We like the ease of communication with Design Pickle. We have a shared Slack workspace/channel that makes nitty gritty requests and edits easy. We also enjoy the intuitive request form and the ability to prioritize the backlog. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My designer, Diego. He is so nice, friendly, and crazy fast! The quality is always there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We currently use Design Pickle for social media and some general business graphic design. We've found it's best to use them to complete designs based on templates, but expect to have to go through multiple revisions for most projects that are original or more than one item. You can set up your brands, defining your colors, fonts, and brand assets.
Once you've set up your profiles and worked your designer into your workflow, it's easy to manage between their dashboard and Slack. Managing our queue submitting requests, sharing files, asking for revisions, and approving and downloading your designs are made easy using both of these tools.
With Premium, our designer stays in regular contact with us so that we can check on the status of tasks and answer any questions quickly.
We use the premium service, so they complete multiple designs per day more often. However, it's still not a dedicated designer, so it definitely doesn't replace having a talented in-house designer working daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We are able to communicate with our designer via Slack, so we can answer any immediate questions easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the things that I like best about Design Pickle are that I it has made have graphics created a breeze. I really do love the fact that the designers always make sure that a project is done by the end of the night weather or not it is completely done or not. They will leave spots blank and let you know what they need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am now a lone marketer for my very small team of about 12 people. Design Pickle, and my designer Julius, help me complete my projects as if I had several marketers to help me do it! I've been using the service for about 2 years now and don't know how I would do it all without my dedicated designer and the resources they provide. I have to say, the quality has really improved since I began since our subscription not only includes a Getty Images subscription but also one to Adobe Stock which has amazing, high-quality images, videos, etc. I would definitely recommend this service to anyone who feels like they need an extra hand...or ten.

After years of using a team of dedicated freelancers, we decided to test using Design Pickle. 6 months later - total gamechanger. They tie nicely into our workflow, are communicative and work with us to get what we need when we need it. Couldn't reccomend them enough.

We hired Design Pickle for approximately 6 months or so while we were in-between marketing staff with design skills. They helped design brochures, core values, social media posts, swag items, making one-color logos...etc. They were friendly, so understanding when we asked for any changes (and I'm pretty picky), upbeat and creative, almost seeming like they wanted you to give them projects which was a nice change to many vendors who discourage utilizing unlimited or space out your projects, and they were extremely fast - usually getting designs (even big projects) back to us within days.
But what I most wanted to mention was their stance during covid. We had actually already hired a marketer by then so had cancelled our subscription. Yet Design Pickle notified all prior customers that they knew how hard covid was on businesses so they were offering a free month of design services, no questions asked. And then they sent out worksheets and themed coloring pages throughout the summer which some of our staff members printed out to help occupy their unexpectedly-at-home young kids. Thank you, Design Pickle. Your true colors were evidenced during covid, and it was a very bright green :). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Graphic Design + Project Management
As a creative agency we are constantly searching for new talent. Especially at those times when a wave of clients flows in or bigger projects stack up. This need for more bandwidth, on-demand injections of talent became a crucial factor in our agency's ability to scale quickly. Thanks to DP we have bandwidth and project management to match those demands. Highly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My designer, Paula, went above and beyond recently to help me with a design. I was out of the office and did not have access to a computer. From my Slack app on my iPhone I was able to communicate with my designer who helped to send me an urgent revision to a design which needed to go to the printers by a strict deadline!

We need a wide variety of graphics for our fundraising programs. One project was to design three Christmas scenes to be used for fundraising. Another has been to design process graphics for fundraising, background custom slides for PowerPoint, custom blog post headers for two businesses, and a lot of Facebook graphics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can submit a rough concept, maybe a couple of examples that I like, and get back a solid first draft. The unlimited revisions makes it easy to get exactly what I want. I really like that it's an overnight service -- I load up the queue late in the day, and projects are back in my in box the next morning. When you ask them to use their imagination and inspiration, they really come through. Always so cheerful, always so customer-centric. This is truly a great service and solves a TON of roadblocks for m. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am producing an activity book for pre-teens that required a significant number of custom designs and text layouts. In order to meet deadlines, the content needed to be completed on a regular basis. I was very impressed with how easy the Design Pickle process was to set-up and by how quickly the content is generated. My designer is fantastic to work with - very professional and responsive - and I am extremely impressed with his creative output. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
