Jerry Hernandez had a problem. Jerry needed to bring attention to insights he was gathering from his business retention calls. Remembering the impact of infographics, Jerry went on a quest - a very successful quest - to learn how to make infographics work for Monterey County (CA) Economic Development Department.
In economic development we tell our story through reports and data: dry, boring, often uninviting reports. We wonder if members/investors are listening? Infographics are the rage today. How can you use this trend to tell your organization’s story?
Infographics have evolved for mass communication due to the availability of online design tools that make creating them much easier, even for the non-designer.
What you will learn:
- How you can create an infographic using free tools
- Impact on branding
- Enhanced credibility
- Improved stakeholder engagement
- How to link an infographic to more information
