If you've learned a little about design, you know a designer's most powerful weapon is their portfolio.

Not only is it a place for the designer to showcase their best work, but it can also be a place for viewers to get in touch with the designer, critique the projects, ask questions, and ultimately turn into clients.

Whether you're a self starter, you're just understanding what graphic design is, or you've simply been procrastinating this project, we've got your back.

Before the Internet, designers walked around with printed copies of their portfolio and handed them out to anyone who was interested (and to anyone who wasn't interested). While the printed portfolio still exists, the viewers of an online portfolio are much less limited. Through the power of social media, a designer's work can be shared around the world in less than a second. With the right approach, your portfolio could very well be the key to your success.
