Welcome to Earning by Design, the podcast that helps you turn your passion for graphic design into a profitable freelance business. I'm Lauren Gonzalez, and 8 years ago, I left my job as an in-house graphic designer to start my own design business. But the journey wasn't always smooth sailing. I faced challenges with finding clients, pricing projects, and achieving consistency in my income. After a lot of trial and error, I discovered the strategies and insights that helped me build a successful six-figure design business from scratch. A business that lets me work on my own schedule, spend more time with my family and only design for clients that excite me and pay me well.In this podcast, I'll be sharing those hard-earned insights and actionable strategies with you. Whether you are new to freelancing or are looking to grow your freelance design business to live life on your own terms, then this podcast is for you.
