Contest Brief

Hi,
I want to write a pocket-size book proposal. I need to see your CREATIVITY & STYLE. You have to pick one topic (see the 4 suggested topics below) and make a drawing.

Each topic of this book proposal will take 2 pages, like a sort of summary: one page for text and one page for the image [see file “orientation.jpg” to understand how to use space].
If I like the style I will contact you again for the remaining topics and for the cover (this will not happen immediately and does not happen automatically if you win this contest).
The genre of the book is “business” but from your design work I want something:
- playful,
- with simple lines,
- similar to comics with stylized shapes and stick-figures.
I like hand-drawings, not geometrical squares [see file “simple drawing style example.jpg” – you don’t need to copy that style: it’s just an example of what I mean].

Please show your CREATIVITY and your STYLE by drawing one of these TOPICS [you can choose the one you prefer]:

1) The power of 1%: which says that if you increase your selling price by 1%, your profits will increase by 11%
[for this topic, you can also re-interpret the image “1 percent graph example.jpg”];
2) 5 ways to implement price increases: this topic gives ideas as how to change prices
[for this topic, you can also re-interpret the image “2 implementing price increases example.jpg”];
3) Break even sales example: this topic tells you how much more volume you need to sell if you lower your prices
[see files “3 break even sales example.jpg” and “3 break even sales example.xlsx”];
4) Total cost of ownership is more important than product price: this topic tells you that even if you pay less money up-front, you may end-up spending more money in the end because of higher maintenance costs
[see file “4 total cost of ownership example.jpg].

Thank you for your effort! I look forward to see your work and I’m available for clarifications in the board
