May 9, 2018
56:09

Ben Burns is an award-winning designer, a digital director at Blind, brand strategy design consultancy, and COO at The Futur (business education for designers). Ben has a fascinating story that took him from charging 50$ a logo to 100$ an hour and that ultimately changed his career. 

In the episode, we talked about topics related to running a creative business such as :

  • why you should not look for more clients but better clients,
  • what to say to your clients when you try to raise your rates, 
  • and how to sell brand work at the premium rates (5 or 6 figures).
