Scientific and technological progress is changing the world around us. The development of manufactories, the beginning of automated production, the spread of personal computers stimulated the growth of individualism<\/strong> among people.Career, personal success, professional merit – we all want to stand out<\/strong>. The results of our work should be recognized by our superiors and others. <\/p>\n\n

\"Copywriter-designer<\/figure>\n\n

Information resources are overflowing with motivational speeches about the need to act all out to prove your uniqueness.<\/p>\n\n

Despite the mass desire for individualism, there are still many things in the world that can only be made better through cooperation<\/strong>. The exchange of ideas allows you to make the work process several times more efficient<\/strong>.This applies to the interaction<\/strong> between a copywriter and a designer. It is a mistake to assume that two specialists can work completely independently. It is an even bigger mistake to think that they cannot perceive each other’s ideas and thoughts. <\/p>\n\n

What happens when a copywriter and a designer are separated?<\/h2>\n\n

KOLORO<\/strong> marketers scrutinize web pages and their content. Many of them have the same problems<\/strong>: “The text is good, but the site design spoils the whole impression” or “The design is wonderful, but the text doesn’t sell”. <\/p>\n\n

\"design<\/figure>\n\n

A website about marketing is filled with great<\/strong> sales content<\/strong>: calls to action, documents, testimonials, videos, lead magnets, bonuses and even sales timers. But the design is questionable, the user may leave the page without reading to the end. <\/p>\n\n

\"copywriter<\/figure>\n\n

This is an example of a website that looks good<\/strong> at first until you start reading the text. Modern design will not help the business if there are gross errors<\/strong> in the appeals and tables of contents. Ordering the services of a<\/strong> copywriter you need to carefully choose the<\/strong> performers. <\/p>\n\n

At the same time, there is another problem<\/strong> with texts, when well-designed sites are filled with huge canvases of<\/strong> information that no one will ever read<\/strong>.An experienced copywriter realizes that such mistakes bring loss to the business<\/strong>, reduce the number of potential customers and damage the image of<\/strong> the company.<\/p>\n\n

What do a designer and a copywriter have in common?<\/h2>\n\n

To do only your<\/strong> work, rub your hands together and forget<\/strong> about everything is amateurism<\/strong>. After all, only the professionalism of performers and the ability to bring things to completion determine the success of the idea. Therefore, the designer and copywriter have a common goal<\/strong> – to make the project bring maximum return to<\/strong> the customer. <\/p>\n\n

KOLORO employees<\/strong> have developed their own scheme of proper design of articles<\/strong> on the site. A copywriter doesn’t just write texts, he creates content <\/strong>for the realization of an idea<\/strong>. The designer does not just draw, he develops the form<\/strong> for the idea<\/strong>. Working together, these specialists are able to create the perfect combination<\/strong>. The project will be filled with concise and clear text in combination with interactive and attractive design. <\/p>\n\n

\"collaboration<\/figure>\n\n

Some things work better together.<\/p>\n\n

KOLORO employees have one goal – the success of your project.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Approaches to getting things done: who’s first?<\/h2>\n\n

It is always better to discuss the<\/strong> project at the beginning of the<\/strong> work process. The company allocates a team of specialists who scrupulously study the<\/strong> smallest details of<\/strong> the assignment, analyze<\/strong> the wishes and requirements of<\/strong> the customer. Thanks to this method, a sequence of<\/strong> actions is created that takes into account the uniqueness of<\/strong> each project. <\/p>\n\n

\"approach<\/figure>\n\n

At KOLORO <\/strong>, there are no disputes in doing the job, because there are two approaches <\/strong>for assigning responsibilities according to the customer’s needs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

The first<\/strong> approach is useful for developing lendings<\/strong>, applications and corporate pages. The text here is an auxiliary<\/strong> material, because the user perceives the message on the page as a whole. The designer<\/strong> makes a layout of the interface<\/strong>, determines the size of categories and navigation. Based on the work done, it will be easier for the copywriter<\/strong> to write concise<\/strong> and structured material<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

The second<\/strong> is the creation of analytical articles<\/strong>, studies and analyses. Providing his services, the copywriter<\/strong> selects information<\/strong>, determines the structure<\/strong> and classification. A designer<\/strong> is needed to visualize <\/strong>the content, he helps to emphasize<\/strong> important points in the text and select illustrative<\/strong> material that will help the reader to better perceive the information. <\/p>\n\n

5 tips for communication between designer and copywriter<\/h2>\n\n

Plan your actions<\/h3>\n\n

From the beginning to the end of the project, there should be meetings<\/strong> between employees to exchange ideas<\/strong>, comments or remarks<\/strong>. Everyone should plan in advance<\/strong> what they want to say and what they can offer to improve the<\/strong> quality of the work on the website or app. <\/p>\n\n

Be attentive to your interlocutor<\/h3>\n\n

You need to pay careful attention to the <\/strong>words and explanations of<\/strong> your colleagues. Any forgotten or missed sentence<\/strong> can ruin a good idea for website design or application interface development. Clarification <\/strong>and questions should be asked. A copywriter may not know everything a designer does, and vice versa. But if you try to understand each other’s motivation<\/strong> and goals <\/strong>, you will get a wonderful job. The ability to listen<\/strong> and ask allows you to establish relationships in the team and successfully complete projects <\/strong>on time. <\/p>\n\n

Compromise<\/h3>\n\n

The designer <\/strong>always reads the texts<\/strong> that the copywriter writes, because he must understand what will be placed on<\/strong> the site. In fact, the designer is one of the first users<\/strong> who assesses the quality of<\/strong> text content. If he does not understand the<\/strong> meaning or structure of the material, it must be corrected<\/strong>. The designer’s help is needed, because he creates the framework<\/strong> for the text that the copywriter wants to provide. He can limit the<\/strong> number of characters<\/strong>, replacing them with a visual component, which will only help the project. <\/p>\n\n

\"design<\/figure>\n\n

The perfect illustration of such a compromise will be infographics<\/strong>, especially when designing a blog with pictures. It harmoniously combines a bright visual<\/strong> component and concise textual <\/strong>content. They are more effective for presenting an idea<\/strong> and are often saturated with detailed and accurate information<\/strong>. Minimal water – maximum benefit. <\/p>\n\n

The copywriter shows the<\/strong> designer which part of the text is most important<\/strong>, what the user should pay attention to first. If the copywriter sees that the visual<\/strong> component is pulling attention <\/strong>away from the material, he or she talks about it and the designer solves the problem<\/strong>.A good example of a balance<\/strong> between the visual component and the text are instructions<\/strong>. If you remove any of the components, there is a huge risk that users will not understand what it is about and what to do. <\/p>\n\n

Try to work around<\/h2>\n\n

In the KOLORO office, designer and copywriter work in the same office<\/strong> and even at arm’s length from each other. How is this useful? They learn about all the client’s wishes, edits and revisions at the same time<\/strong> and can discuss<\/strong> them at the same second. The computers are arranged in such a way that the designer and copywriter can show <\/strong>each other at once what the problem is or what needs to be fixed<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n
