10 Steps to Creating an Infographic: A Practical Guide for Non-designers

10 Steps to Creating an Infographic: A Practical Guide for Non-designers is a clear, process-driven guide to building infographics that communicate with purpose. Stephanie B. Wilkerson organizes the material into ten practical steps, moving from audience and purpose through story, visuals, layout, drafting, review, and revision.

Rather than treating infographic design as a purely visual exercise, this book keeps the message front and center. That makes it especially valuable for readers who need to explain research, evaluation findings, program information, or other complex material in a form that is concise, readable, and audience-aware.

What the book focuses on

• identifying the right audience and understanding what they need
• clarifying the purpose of the infographic before design begins
• developing a strong story and central message
• choosing visuals, layout, color, fonts, and structure with intention
• drafting, reviewing, revising, and finalizing the infographic

A practical path from idea to finished infographic

The step-by-step organization gives the book a workshop-like feel. Readers move through the process in a logical order, and the emphasis on drafting and review helps reinforce that effective infographic design is iterative. The content also reflects real-world concerns such as accessibility, audience access, and the use of culturally sensitive visuals.

Who will find it useful

This title is well suited to non-designers, students, researchers, evaluators, educators, and professionals who need to present information visually without starting from a design background. If your work depends on making information easier to understand at a glance, this book offers a structured and approachable framework.

For customers looking for a focused, practical introduction to infographic creation, this is a strong fit.
