AndyTalks to Nico about Graphic Design & Selling Services

Myself and freelance graphic designer @Nicoknowsbest record a 75 minute chat we had on Skype.

Nico reached out to me a couple of weeks ago with an offer to help me with my videos. I've since engaged him on a project for a new client and it's working out really well for the both of us.

I learned a lot in this call, and it's not just one for graphic designers or people who want to hire graphic designers.

Amongst other things we talk about:
  • Why producing and getting feedback is so important.
  • Knowing your natural way of selling.
  • Playing to your strengths.
  • Hiding behind screens.
  • Fiverr and Upwork versus helping local business.
  • Using Fiverr to test an idea for a niche service.
  • Becoming "The XYZ Guy" - locally!
  • Stop overcomplicating things and just go out there and do it.
