Sales and Clients w/Ryan Gonzales - sponsored by Keiser University

Ryan Gonzales is the owner of Graphic System installers and Distinguished by Design. His firm produces the bus wraps for Citrus Connection, and the signage at Tiger Town, and has produced signage for use at the Super Bowl festivities and internal design for Checkers Restaurant at a national level. Prior to purchasing Graphic System Installers, Ryan was the creative director of The American Legion in Florida where he spearheaded a major rebranding of the organization and collaborated on a national basis to help reps the Legion's image for a new generation of veterans.

One of the things challenging sign firms and individual designers is where to find prospects and how to turn them into clients. Ryan will be sharing his experiences and thoughts on the sales process and working with clients at our August meeting along with sharing other insights into building, reshaping, and developing your design career.

There will be time for group critiques during the latter part of the meeting. If you are working on any current projects and you want some frank, honest critique from other working professionals please bring your latest work with you or be prepared to pull it up online.
