I am looking for a long-term graphical design partner. I am creating a “Dining Guide??, which will be a printed publication that consists entirely of advertisements from local restaurants. I expect to publish 4 editions per year for each of many towns… so the total number of publications should be substantial.
To get this project started, I will need a 16-page prototype of the publication that I can use as a sales tool. I have created an Indesign template of the publication and now I need to fill it with high-quality sample advertisements.
The purpose of this first project is to create the sample advertisements. You will essentially need to pretend that an assortment of restaurants has asked you to create their ads. Since this will be a full-color printed document, all ads need to be high-resolution. However, I will only be using this as a sales tool; I will NOT be distributing it. Therefore it is fine with me if you “borrow?? materials from existing sources.
Since I am not generating any revenue from this project I am looking to get it created as inexpensively as possible. However, there will be significant follow on work once I start creating the real publications and I can be more generous then. In addition to submitting your bid for this project, please indicate what your pricing would be for producing real versions.
PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHMENT FOR ADDITIONAL DESCRIPTION INFORMATION AND A PDF OF THE DIRECTORY TEMPLATE.
Bidders who submit an example of a restaurant ad will receive stronger consideration.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
