Graphic Design as a Service: A Smart Choice for Growth-Minded Brands

With visuals delivering a high return on marketing investment, it comes as no surprise that a growing number of brands are investing in creating stunning graphic designs to engage viewers. But given the cut-throat competition in the digital world, stock images and graphics won’t do the trick.

If you want custom designs to establish your brand’s unique identity, you’ll need Graphic Design as a Service or GDaaS. 

Let’s explore what GDaaS is, the benefits it offers, and how it works.

What is GDaaS?

You may be familiar with the term ‘Software as a Service’ or SaaS. This is a model where end users subscribe to software applications that are hosted online. This is in contrast to the traditional delivery model where software was installed on individual computers.  

When it comes to graphic design, the traditional method is to hire in-house designers or outsource to design agencies. But this comes with a host of disadvantages, such as lack of scalability, difficulty in hiring top talent, and the high costs associated with salaries, bonuses, leaves, training, and onboarding.

GDaaS overcomes these challenges by offering a subscription graphic design model where users can get unlimited graphic designs for a monthly fee. 

The top 5 advantages of Graphic Design as a Service

1. Access to a full creative team

Skill shortages in the graphic design world are real!  According to the latest report by Robert Half, 84% of managers and marketers face challenges hiring experienced and skilled designers in Canada. In the UK too, 65% of vacancies in design-related jobs are hard to fill because of skills shortages.

Even if you hire an in-house graphic designer, they may not have the length and breadth of experience and skills to handle all types of design projects. For example, a designer well-versed in landing page design may not be adept at packaging design.

With GDAAS, you’re gaining access to a team of creative professionals. For instance, at Cueball Creatives, our team includes graphic designers, motion artists, illustrators, and brand strategists who work together to deliver visually powerful and purpose-driven content. This means, you have an entire team of creative professionals at your disposal for any type of project.

2. Unlimited graphic designs and revisions

When you work with a flat rate graphic design agency, such as Cueball Creatives, you can request unlimited graphic designs for a fixed cost. 

In traditional models, you need to pay an additional cost for each design project.

Besides, not every creative agency offers endless revisions. If you ask for more number of revisions beyond the defined limit, you may also incur extra cost per revision.  

One of the biggest advantages of GDaaS is the ability to make unlimited design requests and revisions under a single monthly plan. While not every GDaaS provider offers unlimited revisions, some, like Cueball Creatives, offer this at no extra cost.

3. Consistent brand identity

Hiring different freelancers or agencies can lead to inconsistent design quality and style. With GDAAS, you work with a dedicated design team that understands your brand tone, color palette, and messaging. When every piece of design, right from social posts to animated explainers, are consistent in terms of design and messaging, it makes your brand instantly recognizable across platforms.

4. Fast turnaround time

GDaaS is built for speed. Businesses don’t always have the luxury of time, especially during product launches, marketing campaigns, or social media rollouts. 

Cueball Creatives is known for delivering high-quality static or animated designs within 12 to 24 hours. You get what you need, exactly when you need it without compromising on quality.

5. Scalable and flexible

You can’t expand your in-house design team overnight when there’s a sudden spike in demand, and you definitely can’t let people go during a slow period. In-house teams also have limited bandwidth and may struggle to manage complex or high-volume projects, especially when urgent needs arise.

But with Graphic Design as a Service (GDaaS), you can scale your design output up or down based on your business needs. No hiring delays, no training hassles. Just consistent, high-quality design support that grows with you.

6. Cost effective

Established design agencies can charge anywhere from $150 to $200 per hour. If you have a complex project that requires 10 hours of design work, you would have to pay $2000 for just that one project. Similarly, hiring an in-house team can cost companies up to $481,000 per year. 

The best subscription based design services offer affordable subscription plans that make GDaaS a cost-effective option. At Cueball Creatives, you can get the services of a dedicated design team and priority support for just $599 per quarter.

GDaaS is the way forward for growth-minded businesses

Graphic Design as a Service is not just a trend but the future of how modern brands handle creative work. With Cueball Creatives, you get speed, quality, flexibility, and peace of mind in one compact creative package.
