98 Steps for Growing into a Small Design Agency

The Profitable Graphic Designer

As someone who's been in your shoes, consistently pulling in $5k a month as a freelance graphic designer, I understand the urge to take things to the next level. Let's talk about transforming your solo operation into a small design agency. We're diving into the steps you need to take to make that transition seamlessly. This podcast episode is going to be incredibly valuable for you if you're a brand, graphic, or web designer ready to scale and provide better design services to your clients.

Running a design agency also means you no longer have to do everything alone in your business. If you don’t enjoy communicating with clients, you can hire someone to take over. If web development isn’t your forte, you can outsource it. If you believe you should focus on the vision while someone else handles the day-to-day tasks, you'll have the time to do so. There are many benefits to running an agency versus staying solo. So, let’s chat!

You will learn:

• How to pinpoint your agency's niche and services to attract the perfect clients, leveraging your expertise and passions.
• The ins and outs of crafting a killer brand and online presence that screams professionalism and credibility.
