CMYKhub brings Design Desk to Visual Impact Sydney

CMYKhub will showcase its Design Desk and online Subscription, Graphic Design & Prepress Platform, at Visual Impact Expo in May. Attendees are encouraged to pre-book a demo or visit the company on stand to learn how to save on graphic design and prepress expenses.

Design Desk was launched in 2020, providing the print industry access to a whole team of graphic designers and prepress operators at the click of a button. Design Desk has also offered many businesses, including designers and creative agencies, the ability to scale quickly at a very low cost. It’s simply the most profitable way to sell design as a service.

The multi-level monthly subscription web platform connects the Australian Visual Media industry to CMYKhub’s team of qualified designers. Users select from the list of services, whether adding bleed to existing artwork or creating a printed product from scratch. Collaboration with the design team is accessible via the Design Desk workflow. Anyone can instantly become a Creative Director to manage their artwork without formal training.

CMYKhub’s National Communications Manager, Glen Francis explains that Design Desk was particularly useful to businesses earlier this year when the pandemic struck down much of Australia’s workforce.

“Design Desk never calls in sick and never goes on holidays, it is a dependable resource”, he points out.

“Many of our early subscribers have also utilised the service to be that extra half a staff member they need when they get busy or their designer needs to concentrate on a complex job.”

Design Desk has four subscription levels, starting at $239+GST per month.

As a trade printer, CMYKhub manufactures for other printers, graphic designers, signwriters, marketing and advertising agencies. They operate out of five production hubs based in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns and Perth. Every factory is equipped with roll to roll and flatbed wide format printers.  The large national manufacturing footprint provides speed to market for their trade partners.
