How to Thrive At DIY Design (Without Making Your Designer Mad)

Modern marketing teams need more creative collateral than ever, meaning non-designers are often tasked with taking the reins on some design tasks while designers focus on critical marketing projects. Enter Canva, the savior for collaborative DIYers—and most pro designers’ least favorite tool.

In this presentation we’ll dive into Canva and design collaboration. You’ll walk away with a better understanding of:

• How to seamlessly move from using Canva for quick designs to collaborating with designers for more polished visuals
• Best practices for designing in Canva as a non-designer
• How to foster a collaborative mindset across the full creative team to align with long-term strategic goals
