On today’s episode of the Brand Strategy Podcast, we’re diving deep into some action-based content just for my fellow brand, web, and graphic designers all about how to sustainably scale your income.
As a fellow brand designer and strategist, I know exactly what it feels like to have big dreams of scaling your income. Which is why today I’m going to walk you through three actionable must-have steps it takes to sustainably increase your income without necessarily adding more to your plate.
If that sounds like just the encouragement and content you’re needing in this season of business I’ve got you covered.
How to sustainably scale your income as a designer
In this episode we’re talking through some major mindset shifts, tips, and strategies to scale your business in a sustainable way.
Now, before we dive into this conversation I think we need to take a minute to talk about the intention behind scaling your income as a designer. Whether you’re dreaming of paying off your house, taking that dreamy vacation or retiring your husband early—we all have different goals in mind for the profit that we make.
But there is this mentality in our industry that the word “profit” is bad, greedy or a negative thing. When in reality, the word “profit” is actually a sign of a healthy business. If we aren’t profitable, then these businesses we have are actually expensive hobbies. So instead, I want us to stop looking at profit as greedy and instead look at it as a tool.
You ready?! Let’s dive in!
