How to Create Your Own Infographics

I’m always scouring the internet for information that will help me in my business. Hopefully, the little nuggets I find will help you too. Well, today’s search led me to an interesting post on Socialmouths.

Infographics are everywhere at the moment.

They are a great way to get across information in a succinct, colourful and fun way. But, if like me, you’re not a designer, the use of them within your own marketing usually comes with a hefty price tag.

Well that doesn’t have to be the case any more.

Now you too can create your own infographic.

Their post, How to Make an Infographic (Even When You’re Not a Designer) takes you through several free and paid software/service options.

Plus, they run through some general design principles to get you started, such as:

• Data must drive your design
• The importance of clarity
• White space
• Showing and not telling
• Creativity

This is one of my shorter posts because I’m heading off to have a play.

Hope you find this useful.
