\"yahoo\"<\/p>\n

Special Rates For The Season<\/h3>\n

As its that time of year, and everything is on sale, why not offer special prices on your design services? Maybe not as such as buy one design get one free, but maybe buy 2 web designs for $x amount, or buy a web design get 25% of hosting for the year.<\/p>\n

Many companies will be sending an eCard to their clients, so why not offer your amazing skills to design eCards. eCards are becoming more and more popular around Christmas time as the internet grows. They are a cheap and hassle free way of saying happy Christmas, and companies need a good design for their clients.<\/p>\n

Sell Festive Icons \/ Vectors<\/h3>\n

You could maybe create a festive icon pack and sell it on many different stock websites such as graphicriver<\/a> and istockphoto<\/a>. Think about how many Cards \/ redesigns \/ adverts are made around the festive season. You could earn quite a bit of money from selling stock designs.<\/p>\n
