Freelancing requires more than talent—it demands business acumen. This 60-minute class cuts through the fog by addressing the decisions that actually matter: making the leap from employment, setting up finances that protect you, and managing client relationships so they scale rather than drain you.
Whether you're designers, artists, or illustrators, you'll find strategies for balancing workflow and avoiding cash-flow crises that plague many creatives. The emphasis on mission statements and varied client approaches gives you a framework to build something sustainable, not just survive project-to-project.
Learn how to kick your freelance career into gear. This 60-minute class covers everything you need to know to quit your job or re-ignite your current freelance business – how to make the initial leap, best practices to get your finances in order, different approaches for working with clients, and how to balance your freelance schedule. Take what you’ve learned and create your own mission statement for your freelance business.
This is a class for designers, artists, photographers, illustrators and everyone looking to kickstart their freelance career. Are you currently considering transitioning from a full-time role to freelance? Are you newly out of school and are looking for some practical tips to improve your work? Or are you a more seasoned pro with tricky clients and cash flow problems? This class is filled with tips, tricks, and insights for all levels.
