We recently connected with Daverica Tutt and have shared our conversation below.
Daverica, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Getting that first client is always an exciting milestone. Can you talk to us about how you got your first customer who wasn’t a friend, family, or acquaintance?
Daverica received her first client during the peak of COVID-19. During this time period, many people became entrepreneurs and needed business logos.
Daverica had a friend that desperately need a business logo but could not afford the prices that well-known graphic designers were offering.
Daverica had a little knowledge of graphic design because of her mom’s occupation. So, she offered to try and design the logo for her friend.
After one project of creating a logo design, her business took off.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
Daverica is the CEO of Dee Logos, a graphic design business. Dee Logos was inspired and birthed around the peak of COVID-19. As a little girl, she’s always watched her mom (who is also a graphic designer) create content.
Dee Logos’ name was inspired by Daverica’s nick name, Dee, and the designs she specialized in the most, which is logos.
One obstacle Daverica experienced was trying to find appropriate pricing for her audience. Daverica was aware that graphics tend to be expensive; however, her audience was college students so she wanted to ensure that she was able to find the balance in receiving the compensation she deserved while being affordable to her audience.
Dee Logos designs flyers, logos, business cards, campaigns, stickers, banners and many more. What sets Dee Logos apart is its quick turn-around times while still providing excellent content.
Something surprising is Daverica is still learning the fundamentals of Photoshop on her MacBook so most of her work and content is created via iPhone and iPad.
Dee Logos has created designs for many organizations on Clark Atlanta University’s campus, Think It’s A Game Record Company, Target and Henkel Headquarters, etc.
Any thoughts, advice, or strategies you can share for fostering brand loyalty?
Dee Logos has an opportunity called DEE LOYALTY CLUB! Customers will earn a stamp for each visit. On their 6th visit, they will receive 25% off. We love our loyal customers!
Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?
Dee Logos provide mock-ups for every design that is created via Instagram page. The presentation itself, is neat and aesthetically appealing making the client willing to accept the project faster.
Mockups are the closest thing you will get to the real product. This gives the designer and clients the ability to see what their designs will look like once printed or showcased on objects.
