Packaging Artwork Workflow Automation

Still doing the same artwork changes by hand?

I help design and production teams simplify and automate repetitive work in Adobe Illustrator. This includes product updates, barcodes, artwork variants and exports.

  • Save time on repetitive work across files and SKUs
  • Reduce errors caused by manual updates
  • Get tools tailored to your production needs

What still needs doing by hand?

Your team may already have software for managing products, artwork or approvals. Yet someone still has to copy information into Illustrator, repeat changes across variants or prepare files one by one.

I look at those remaining manual steps and work with you to find a practical solution. Sometimes a small script is enough. Sometimes the templates, data or sequence of work need to change first.

My main specialization is packaging artwork in Illustrator. If your team faces similar repetitive work in another area of graphic production, we can explore whether the same approach fits.

🔍 What “Overhead” Includes

Overhead represents all the extra costs a company pays in addition to an employee’s gross salary. It typically includes:

  • Employer taxes & social fees
  • Pension contributions
  • Paid vacation & sick leave costs
  • Insurance (health, work injury, unemployment, etc.)
  • Office space (rent, utilities, cleaning)
  • Equipment (computer, monitors, software, tools)
  • Admin & operations (HR, accounting, management, support)
  • General workplace costs (internet, coffee, furniture, supplies)

In short: Overhead = everything it costs the company to employ someone beyond the salary itself.

From a recurring problem to a working solution

Understand
We look at the task, the files and the people involved: what repeats, where errors happen and what takes time.

Simplify
We identify unnecessary steps and decide what could be done more directly.

Systematize
We agree on consistent templates, data and rules so the process can be repeated reliably.

Automate
I build and test a solution for the agreed task. We start with one manageable problem and assess the result before expanding.

What Should You Actually Automate?

Not every task should be automated.

The best opportunities are usually tasks that are repetitive, rule-based and happen often enough to justify changing the workflow.

Think about artwork updates repeated across many SKUs, recurring file preparation, barcode placement, exports or other steps where the same actions are repeated again and again.

If a task requires judgement, creativity or changes every time, automation may not be the right answer.

Every workflow is different, but the problems often have something in common: repetitive production work that takes time and creates opportunities for errors.
