Getting Started With The Category Spreadsheet
As the project manager of our ecommerce design team, I spend a significant amount of time explaining tasks or concepts to our clients that may seem elementary to an advanced web developer. Most often, I find myself circling the issue of spreadsheet uploads (primarily the category and product spreadsheets). I’d say 4 times out of 5, the first spreadsheet we receive is incompatable for upload and is either sent back for revision or the web developer consumes precious development time fixing it which costs money. Whether you’ve been tasked with creating these spreadsheets yourself, or wish to more easily explain how these spreadsheets work, I hope this series of posts can help!

4 Ways to Design With Efficiency
We all want to be as efficient as possible in everything we do, right? It is all about getting as much done in the least amount of time. For most of us, time is money. If time is not money to you, then the faster you get a certain task done could open up more time to do some activity that you prefer over the work you have to do. You get the point.

As a web and graphic designer, I strive to be as efficient as possible while keeping the quality as high as can be. Speed, distractions, rest, and knowing your software can all shape how efficient you are.
