Creating a custom design can get pretty expensive. I thought I’d share my experience using Fiverr to create a custom dealer button design.
Interest:
I’m new to collecting coastal Mississippi chips, but figured I might try to create a button early (or at least trial it) to go with whatever Mississippi set that grows over the next few years. I started this project with the idea that I wanted to assemble as many casino logos from coastal Mississippi as possible.
Preparation:
I assembled a set of casino logos that were either obtainable online, or I could create from some chips that I have. This process took me about a week. As a design service, someone on Fiverr probably could’ve done this for me, but I wanted to save a few bucks and do myself. I organized 20 Casino logos together and saved to my Google Drive.
Fiverr designers:
I downloaded the app, registered, and contacted four designers and explained my project. One person replied and quoted me for $50 to “create a single circular design that consists of 20 Casino logos for private use.” I had to share examples of the logos, as well as some inspiration beforehand of what I would like to see in the final product. I’ll share all of this below. I submitted my order to the designer, and had a design in hands less than two days later. I was impressed with the turnaround and the final product. I asked for some small revisions, but this was done the following day.
Overall, I’m happy with the work. It seems like very quick turnaround and pretty reasonable price.
Next Steps:
Because of the fine print, I’ll likely need to go the oversized acrylic button route. I’m working with Justin on this, and would like to share this for anyone to purchase in the GB.
