Clear Your Mind With A Sketchbook
Remember sketchbooks? Being attached to the computer or iPhone basically 24/7, I often forget this simple joy. Sketching onto paper has such a distinct sound. The feeling of the pencil or pen touching the paper just isn’t something you can get on the computer. It’s just you and the paper, distractions are gone. You’re free to let your mind wonder and drift. This is something you...

Ditch The Home Office & Visit A Local Coworking...
For the last couple weeks I’ve decided to get out of my home office and work out of a coworking space with some other freelance friends. It’s an entirely different vibe when you’re working around other creative people. At a coworking space there are less distractions; you don’t have the TV tempting you away, the dog looking to go for a walk or those dirty dishes wanting to...

Now working from home may have its perks but great conversations isn’t one of them. And it’s not the important things you really end up missing the most, often its those lunches out and...

In The Business Of Being Nice
Most of the time when people talk about business you’ll hear things like, “business is cut throat,” and “business should never be personal.” Everyone runs their business differently, no one answer works for all but I don’t believe that a person must always separate their personal feelings from that of their business relationships. Zig Ziglar had a great saying...

Client Feedback? Take A Minute Before You React.
I’ve had my fair share of phone calls with clients in which I feel frustrated or upset and even some who make me want to yell. When I hang up the phone, I take some time to cool down and then tackle the changes. Maybe blowing off some steam by yelling or by venting to someone can help make you feel better but most of the time it just gets me more frustrated about the project. That’s...

The Creative Process
The creative process is a strange one that’s hard to explain and even harder for you to bill. One day a simple task might take you 30 minutes, the next time that same general thing could take two days. Learning your creative process and how to make use of your time more efficiently is often trial and error. I’ve learned over the years what works best for me. For instance, I know that I...
