Really depends on where are you on your startup journey and your needs. If you have already secured some funding, go for a generalist in-house designer that would cover most of your needs. The rest hire a freelancer. If not, there are many free resources on all this. So go for the mainstream tools (go for Figma rather than Sketch or Adobe Xd for example). Hope this helps :)

@zhitao_yan curious to hear your feedback on it.
If you have a lot of work and a budget, go for an in-house designer. Or You can find any reliable freelance designer who is probably new but has the designing skills to save your cost. Furthermore, you can learn those skills and do it yourself if you can.

I agree - go in-house if you can afford it, but if you can't I'd recommend PAIRUX.com (completely selflessly)

Work with a startup specific marketing agency. There are a few out there that focuses solely on the pressing needs of startups as it is a unique experience compared to working with already established companies.
