Julie has been an artist her entire life, first going to art college and later working in advertising, then video games. Only after becoming a bit frustrated with the inevitable changes in her designs, from decision by committee, did Julie start designing in her spare time, slowly building up income from Print on Demand sites.
We hear it time and again and it’s so true. Having multiple income streams protects you from income volatility. In Julie’s case, the bridal industry has shifted from 80% to 50% of her design work. Having her PoD income as well as doing other types of design work have kept her going through those changes. Look at creating downloads, courses, PoD, books, audiobooks, affiliate marketing relevant to your field, having a shop, taking custom work, consulting… Choosing a few different streams can give you stability when circumstances out of your control hit.
We all just want to be heard. When you’ve got a client who seems clingy, make sure they know that you’ve understood what they’re looking for and also that you’ve made time for them. Some clients are always going to try and micromanage, but many are just unsure and need to know what’s going on.
