• A few strategies come to mind: - Prioritize focus: Tackle one project at a time, giving it full attention to ensure quality. - Tailor the visuals: Each dataset tells a unique story, so I choose visuals that best fit the specific message. - Keep it clear: Simplifying designs helps ensure the data is easy to understand and impactful. - Review and refine: I regularly revisit each project to fine-tune and improve where needed. This way, every project gets the attention it deserves and stands out!
• „Understand the data“ is all you need. Note the nature and key ideas of the data and its source so when ever you come back to that project you will be on track asap.
• People often overlook the time spent on basic formatting and theme development. For a personal brand, maintaining a cohesive aesthetic across various visualization projects can save a significant amount of time. Even if it's as simple as a color palette template or a macro that adjusts line thickness on tables. However, it’s essential to ensure that your brand doesn’t come across as generic.
