Graphic Design - Bulletproof Freelance Business

Graphic Design - Bulletproof Freelance Business

This class will completely change the way you run your freelance design business.

I got my butt kicked for so many years. Seriously, if I had a dollar for every client that stiffed me on a design bill, or paid waaaaay late, or was just rude and unreasonable about anything from changes to native files- I'd be very rich. So many times I wanted to call it quits and just go work for someone else so I didn't have to deal with all that stuff. But that meant, you know, having to be on someone else's schedule and under someone else's creative direction... Nope. I was completely bent on figuring out how to protect myself emotionally and financially from crazy clients and keep my freelance life. And after 15+ years out on my own, I have some secrets to share :)

There is so much more that goes on behind the scenes that can eat into your design time - and PROFITS - if you don’t have your business model set up to protect you and create a transparent and open designer/client relationship at the same time.

Running a small business always has a fair share of the unexpected. Things happen outside the usual ‘get hired - do the design - get paid’ operations that can slow you down. And even worse, slow down profits.

Over my 20 year career in design, I’ve started outlining where I’ve seen productivity waiver, what mistakes I’ve learned a lot from, and what is totally avoidable (and how).

We’ll go over all too common issues that come up with design clients and how to solve them!

Get ready for...

• REAL EXAMPLES of my bulletproof disclosures - stop getting walked on by crummy clients!

• Logo Files the RIGHT way!

• Negotiation tactics - get it right up front!

• Client boundaries so you don't get used!

• Discounts, payments, and pricing structures - that work!

• Spotting and changing difficult clients - before problems happen

• And so much more!

  
  

By the end of this class, you’ll be well on your way to having a bulletproof business up and running the right way - FAST!

Avoid the mistakes and time-wasting pitfalls so common in the industry so you can focus on the creative part - the whole reason you got into it in the first place!
