Whether working for yourself or taking on freelance projects, how do you find clients and price your work? And how can you solicit feedback from your clients that doesn’t leave you hurt and defensive?
Today’s guest is Olivia Herrick, a Minnesota based graphic designer who’s client-centered business approach is thriving – allowing her to build a business that she loves and that works for her and her family.
In this episode, Olivia shares what we don’t hear often - the upside for working for another company, and how the story you tell yourself about your 9 to 5 doesn’t have to be negative. From her beginnings of working in-house, to starting her own graphic design business, Olivia shares how she created a financial strategy before she took the leap, and offers tips for designers on finding clients, how to price your work, and how to solicit feedback that won’t hurt you but instead make the work stronger and your clients happier. In addition, Olivia dives into some of her life wisdom, including how the Enneagram changed her life, as well as insights into some of the quotes she is known for sprinkling throughout Instagram.
