Author Bio
Hi, I’m Jackie.
I teach online business owners digital design skills through e-books, courses and templates.
Would you love to add another income stream to your business but don't know how to find the time or where to start? Have you tried to piece together endless tutorials, but nobody tells you everything you need to know or in what order to do things? Or perhaps you’ve tried to create a digital product but find the whole process overwhelming so you give up?
If this sounds like you, Simply Plan and Do is here to help!
I started experimenting with professional design software nearly 25 years ago, and have run online service and product-based businesses since the early 2000s.
I’ve worked as a design and marketing virtual assistant for online companies and consultants around the world. I also have a teaching qualification which has been invaluable in helping me make learning digital design as accessible as possible.
I've built up my knowledge from simple graphics to website design, desktop publishing, vector art, repeat patterns, and digital planners. These design skills have helped me sell hundreds of digital products.
As a self-taught designer, I know design theory and software can feel overwhelming when you are new. You just need an experienced guide to show you how. And that's where I come in!
I truly believe it's never too late to learn a new skill. Beginners and curious minds are welcome here.
