If you want to showcase your work for potential clients or have one place to store design files, create a Sites website. Share brand guidelines, photos, design patterns and templates. Any changes you make to your files will automatically update on your website.
Want to present an idea to your team? Need to get buy-in from external clients? Create a powerful presentation to get your message across using Slides. Add graphs, images, videos, and other creative assets to make an impactful presentation. Share ideas and get constructive feedback instantly.
Have a new idea and want to know what your co-workers think? Get feedback on brand campaigns, design briefs, and more with Google+ posts. Create a Google+ community and share ideas, photos, and videos to start conversations. Share a quick poll using Forms to get input on a proposal. You’ll know right away if your ideas are on the right track.
If you’re working on a large design project, create a project plan using Sheets to quickly assign tasks. Co-workers can update their progress directly in the spreadsheet. During the review process, easily keep track of changes to files, even if there are a lot of collaborators. With Drive and Team Drives, the activity stream shows things such as who commented, edited, moved, or shared a file. In Docs, Sheets, and Slides, check out the version history to see who made changes and when. You can edit files together in real time, chat within files, and get targeted feedback using comments and suggestions.
Give team members a head start and let them preview files before a meeting or brainstorming session. Send your meeting invitation in Calendar and attach documents, presentations, agendas, and other creative assets—so everyone on the team is ready to contribute ideas.
If you need to keep your creative assets together in one place, save work files and folders in Drive or a Team Drive. Then, share them instantly with co-workers or external clients. And, when someone incorporates feedback and approvals, Drive shows you what files changed.
If you need to share sensitive files with external clients, you can prevent people from downloading, printing, or copying them. You can also set an expiration date so external clients or agencies can no longer access files when a project ends. If you’re downloading an external file, Drive scans most files for viruses. If a virus is detected, the file won’t be downloaded.
If you want to share design mocks and status updates with your team, use Groups to set up an email list. Then, reach everyone with a single email address. Share calendars, sites, and creative assets as well using Groups. Everyone in the group gets access to files shared with the group. You can easily add and remove people inside and outside of your organization.
Want to brainstorm and get immediate feedback on ideas with remote team members? Start a Hangouts Meet video meeting. Firstly, share a design brief with agenda items. Then, during the meeting, showcase an idea by sharing your screen. With Hangouts Chat, you can send links to ideas and other online resources to everyone in the meeting.
If you’re working on a design project, emailing large files isn’t always possible. Instead, share the file using Drive. When the person clicks the link in the email, it opens on the web, even if they don’t use G Suite or have a Google Account.
