TemplateMonster: Hello! Could you please introduce yourself to our readers? Where are you from? How did you start your career?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign: Hi! I am Rezaul Karim, a freelance graphic designer from Bangladesh. Together with my team - ContestDesign - we are creating graphic templates, especially presentation templates and mega stationery branding identity pack. There are also logo icons and infographic templates available in our collection. We are proud to have an impressive collection of corporate identity themes, that will be especially appreciated by businessmen when attending conferences and other public events.
TemplateMonster: What features are common for all of your products? How we can distinguish them among others?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign:My all templates are easy to use and 100% customizable with multiple file formats. A customer can easily edit any of them all by themselves. All our templates come loaded with multiple color variation, which lets our clients personalize pre-made templates just the way it matches their branded look. Moreover, I provide the best customer support via TemplateMonster support desk.
My template creation process is different from other web designers because my templates are based on real topics with real elements.
For example, when I want to create a business plan PowerPoint template, I start off with a research of the real business plan topic and subjects that are needed for a business planner. Then, I create a photorealistic 3D infographic in Illustrator matching with the chosen topics and import those infographics in Microsoft Powerpoint. I set up all texts, images, infographics, and more elements for a professional look.
TemplateMonster: Do you remember when you submitted your first product for sale?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign: I submitted my first item - PowerPoint Template - in December 2017. I was very pleased to receive my first sale 2 days after the item was launched in the marketplace.
TemplateMonster: How much time does it usually takes to create a template?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign: It depends on the item category. Basically, it takes 2-3 months to create a PowerPoint template and 25-30 days for a mega stationery branding identity template. Once it took 8 months for a PowerPoint template. So, everything depends on the project that I create.
TemplateMonster: What is the most complicated stage of template creation?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign: The most complicated stage of a template creation is to generate an idea for a new design. Then, I select a design category that's in the greatest demand in the marketplace.
As soon as I come up with an idea of a new design, the next step that I need to take is bringing it to live in the most realistic and professional style.
TemplateMonster: What do you like the most about being an author of digital products?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign: I think as soon as a template is created, the next thing that every author needs to do is to create a stunning product showcase. This can be done through the use of a high-resolution photorealistic mockup. In such a way, your product will be more attractive to your customers.
TemplateMonster: With what products you are planning to amaze your customers in the future?
Rezaul Karim, ContestDesign: I am planning to create more complete mega stationery branding identity with lots of individual items because branding and brand identity are exactly what all types of customers and businesses need.
