What’s a humorous illustrator? ME, of course!
No kidding.
Really.
Okay, so some people may say that humor is a lot like beauty—it depends on the beholder. Or in my case, the viewer.
But let me tell you something about being a humorous illustrator. I. CAN. MAKE. YOU. RICH.
Really.
Allow me to tell you what a bit of humor can do to your business. For one, humor to business communication is a lot like oil to machinery. It allows for smooth operations. When you communicate with your colleagues and staff in a lighthearted way, the message gets across easily, as compared to being gruff and unyielding all the time. This is also true when dealing with potential and long-time customers. Ask any advertiser, people get naturally drawn to products and services that are presented as fun to have. This is where you need the services of a humorous illustrator (again, me!), to make your product presentations eye-catching and interesting.
A humorous illustrator is also your tool in improving employee morale and enhancing the work environment. A company can commission caricatures of its top executives with motivational texts and messages and distribute these materials during special events such as company picnics and parties. The works of a humorous illustrator allows employees to view their bosses in another light, not people to be feared of but rather approachable figures who encourages them to give their best in work. A humorous illustrator can also make caricatures of high-achieving employees and these materials may be given as a form of award or recognition. Imagine the delight of each recipient would be!
A cartoon map drawn by a humorous illustrator is also an excellent promotional material, one that will surely catch the eye and maintain the viewer’s interest. Compared to all the other promotional materials, cartoon maps cost next to nothing. Materials like these also increase public recognition of a company or an organization, and may be even be used to provide information on company goals and operations.
Corporate entities can also commission a humorous illustrator to add funny yet effective images in their training materials and employee handbooks. Apart from providing some visual interest, these images also enhances their understanding of the text and may even allow them to remember it after some time.
A humorous illustrator is also one that understands the difference in injecting humor on persons and situations connected with the business, as compared to making fun of the business itself. This is how you can choose which suitable humorous illustrator to hire. You need to commission someone who understands your need to promote your business and presents them with just the right mix of humor and dignity.
You must know that all the attributes of a humorous illustrator that I described above are based on my extensive experience and background as one. And trust me folks, when I say that to get where I am now (25 years in this profession and still counting) I learned to take only the client’s demands seriously and let humor take the rest. And that, in a nutshell, is what a humorous illustrator is.
