What the critics are saying:
Constructing the Persuasive Portfolio is a truly impressive and comprehensive guide
and checklist. It takes you through the full process of creating portfolios鈥攆rom the
early planning, strategies, initiation and concept development to content, design
and production. The fulsome detail and demonstrable examples make this an indispensable
tool.

First impressions count, especially when the designer isn't there to do the talking!
A persuasive portfolio can win a competition, gain admission to a school, or garner
support for a project. Margaret Fletcher provides a valuable, thoughtful, and well-designed
framework for anyone who needs to present ideas visually in Constructing the Persuasive
Portfolio. This book is a must-have for the bookshelves of designers and non-designers
alike!

Springs, California
Designers in the visual arts and architecture have the opportunity to present their
work as unique individuals. A myriad of graphic design and presentation skills must
be practiced and applied in order to prepare portfolios that successfully portray
the attributes of each project's design intent. Margaret Fletcher's Constructing the
Persuasive Portfolio offers a comprehensive and easily accessible view into the creation
of both print and digital versions of portfolio design. Students and professionals
in many disciplines will benefit from its diagrammatic explanations and visually inspiring
examples.
