Description

This episode was inspired by a question from one of the students in my group program for designers The Design Minimind! She wanted to know how I went from the (seemingly) never ending cycle of being overworked, followed by really slow seasons. I go through what I learned in my 1:1 marketing mentorship with Ash from The Cheetah Company, what I did on my own, and things I recommend to designers wanting to break the feast/famine cycle in a way that works best for their businesses and lifestyles.Links Mentioned:Sign Up for the Waitlist for my small group program for designers The Design Minimind!The Cheetah Company WebsiteThe Timeless Sales Method (Ash's Course)Podcast Episodes I Recommend Related to This Topic:Going From $0 to Six Figures Post-Maternity Leave with Chaitra Radhakrishna - S6E8Connecting and Selling in an Organic Way on Social Media with Ash Henry - S5E20Inbox Question:“I'd love to hear more about how other designers go about researching new industries or niches. I've mostly worked on referrals and on topics I was already familiar with, and am working on branching out.” - Libby MinerConnect With Us:Our Free Facebook CommunityOur WebsiteOur Resources PagePodcast InstagramSupport us on PatreonOur podcast disclaimer can be found by visiting:www.betterbranddesigner.com/disclaimerTags:designer, design, brand design, brand identity design, design studio, design business, graphic design, brand designer, better podcast, brand designer podcast, logo design, brand identity design

Better: The Brand Designer Podcast was founded on the belief that designers need community. We find that the branding world often feels secretive, competitive, and sometimes just plain old confusing. When we realized that our honest, soul-chat-level convos between designer friends could potentially help other designers, we realized a podcast was only natural!Better: The Brand Designer Podcast was created by Giselle Field of Wander Design Co. and Jen Davis from Hello June Creative, who met in a designer's Facebook group in 2019 and became quick design biz buddies. Grievously, Giselle passed away during a climbing trip in Peru in summer of 2020. We encourage all listeners of our podcast to listen to our two Celebrating Giselle episodes. Giselle's adventurous, kind, funny, and supportive presence is missed every day - each and every episode that we record is dedicated to her legacy and her vision for this podcast.In winter of 2022, we welcomed Esther Knox-Dekoning from Sereth Design as a new co-host. It is our honor to continue recording episodes in Giselle's memory and we know that she is with us every time we sit down to record.
