  • 81. Are you overcomplicating your graphic design business?

    Today we are talking about a trend we are seeing where designers overcomplicating All. The. Things. If this sounds like you, be sure to listen in.

    We love the saying 'a confused mind never buys' and that's true not only for clients deciding to work with you, but also for when they 'buy in' to the concepts you present!

    We think it might have a lot to do with non-enoughness and trying to prove our worth, but we see designers outsmarting themselves, which leads to over explaining, spending too much time on projects and over-delivering.

  • 77. Done Is Good (Encore Episode)

    We see perfectionism undermining the success of graphic design business owners time and time again. It's a sinister, unattainable goal because there is no such thing as perfect!

    As overcoming perfectionism is an ongoing practice, we thought it was high time to revisit this episode, originally released in July 2021.

    We have embraced the 'done is better than perfect' concept for many years, however we have a new plot twist: Done is GOOD. Listen in to find out all we had to say. 🤗 With love Kris & Don xo

  • 76. Can you have too many boundaries?

    We love a good boundary, but can you take them too far?

    Boundaries are brilliant – they are crucial to the smooth operation of any graphic design business and managing clients. But the last thing we want for you is to be so rigid with your boundaries that you end up turning clients away.

    In this episode we are talking about the fine line between healthy boundaries and boundaries that block.

    With love Kris & Don xo
