Graphic Design Outsourcing Services

When does outsourcing a designer make sense?

• Regular design work, but not enough for a full-time hire. For example, a few social media posts a week and the occasional promotional piece.
• Workload that rises and falls. Campaigns, product launches or exhibition season overload your internal team.
• A need for varied skills. One designer is rarely equally strong in social media, print, presentations and motion.
• Agencies with too much work. We can work white-label under your agency's name.

Work you can hand over

• Social media feed posts, stories and ads.
• Brochures, flyers, posters, banners and exhibition material.
• Presentations and sales proposals.
• Internal material such as announcements, newsletters and certificates.
• Resizing material into many sizes and formats.

Larger pieces of work, such as logo design and branding, a company profile or an annual report, usually work better as separate projects.

How the arrangement works

• Onboarding. We study your brand guidelines, existing material and the kinds of work you need most often.
• Design requests. Your team sends briefs through one agreed channel, with copy, sizes and deadlines.
• Design and revisions. Designs are sent for review, then revised until they are ready to use.
• Final files. Print-ready or upload-ready files, plus working files stored neatly for reuse.

How much does graphic design outsourcing cost?

Graphic design outsourcing at PopOut starts from Rp6,000,000 per month. The final cost depends on:

• The number and type of designs per month.
• The designer hours allocated to you.
• Specialist skills such as motion, illustration or 3D.
• The turnaround you need.
• The contract length.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from hiring a designer?

Hiring means salary, benefits, equipment and software licences, plus the time to recruit and train. With outsourcing you pay one monthly fee and can scale capacity up or down as needed.

Can capacity be increased during campaigns?

Yes. Capacity can be increased for busy months, such as Ramadan, year end or exhibition season, then brought back to normal afterwards.

What do we need to prepare at the start?

Your brand guidelines, logo and font files, examples of designs you have used before, a list of recurring work, and who approves designs on your team.

Does the designer work at our office?

Designers usually work from the PopOut studio and communicate by chat, email or online meetings. In-person meetings can be scheduled for larger briefings.

What about social media content that also needs captions and posting?

If you also need captions, a posting schedule and performance reports, see our social media management service. For moving content, see animated social media design.
