Alright, so the first thing that you're going to do is type in canva.com. That's ca n va.com. And we're going to do is just simply sign up here, you're going to let them know whatever this is for usually, you're just going to either say it's a small business or personal. Either way, once you do, you're going to sign up with your email. It's going to confirm everything. And I am going to let you know that Canva does have pricing and right now they're offering it for basically $10 per month, or, of course, a 1295.
But the point about this is, is that it is so inexpensive in terms of being able to work within the bounds of Canva and the editing that you should make all of this back usually within your first graphic design job. And I'm talking literally designed jobs that you can pick up just like that. I'm going to be showing you a few different platforms. Where again, you can sell your services. And you can charge anywhere from basically $5 to do a simple quick design to 20 or even $25. If you're doing you know, social media graphics, and again, we're going to dive inside I'm going to show you how easy all of that really is with Canva.
So overall, if you do end up using the free one, then again, just do realize that you're going to have to be able to upload your own images most of the time. There are more things that are available for you. When you actually get the 1295 or $10 a month when paid annually. I'm sorry membership program. If you end up going through and using a this software for a lot of your clients, then two folders is never going to be enough because you're just going to basically have to have it personal and clients and then All the clients get shoved in one folder, that doesn't really work very well. Especially if you have, you know, certain clients, you're going to have the 8020 rule, certain clients will pay you most of your money because they enjoy your work.
And they're going to hire you for a lot of jobs, sometimes 10 2030 jobs every single month. And then you're going to have just those normal one off people and you don't want to mix those kind of designs with each other else. It can get very confusing, it doesn't help when you know, you want to use one design and edit it differently. And just, it gets very confusing. So that's why I suggest buying a premium plan which is using it for work. But again, you don't have to you can use this for free.
And then once you make your first couple sales, boom, you can instantly pay for this and you can go month to month if you want it's not that much of a price difference. But once you've signed up and you're going to start out with the free plan I upgraded you're going to end up Entering in just like this, this is what it's gonna look like. So here's all of my designs that I've created. I'm gonna jump inside of the next lecture and kind of walk through what each of these little tabs on the left are. And we're just going to break it down for you. So that way you can understand the user interface before you go diving into editing and all the cool things we'll do inside
