You've heard the old adage you have to spend money to make money - but determining what you want to spend money on can be a scary and difficult thing. This week a listener asks what should I invest in to level up my business? And your host, Kennedy Roberts spends some time talking through her philosophy around making investments into your business.
Once you've been with a client for a long time you might find yourself struggling to justify the project from a profit perspective. It's honestly a tale as old as time especially if your business is growing quickly. But the real question is HOW do you ask for more money from a long term client. Honestly, the answer isn't that easy, but today we take you through some ways of thinking about and approaching this conversation that might be helpful.
After you've been in business for a while, it is important to start to consider how you can niche down, find your footing as a business owner and create efficiencies that lead to more profit. But how do you figure out what is the most lucrative and what your footing looks like for you and your business? I take you through the three things you need to determine to effectively niche down in a way that is effective and doesn't leave revenue on the table.

Get that butterfly feeling when you're on zoom? You're not alone...I've been there and it was...well awkward to say the least. Here's my perspective on what to do when you have a crush on a client and spoiler alert - it's all about the power dynamics, okay. And PSA this is NOT dating advice.
Have you ever gotten that terrible email? The one with the client feedback that makes you cringe, where they seem to hate everything you've done and want their money back? Well, same. But I'm here to tell you - you and your career actually CAN survive this terrible, terrible moment and listen to find out how!

Okay, so my laptop was stolen and the events that came after were less than savory. But I got through it and so will you - well hopefully this doesn't happen to you - but something bad will and here is a step by step guide of how to get through it. Also a little bit of complaining on my end because..it's therapy after all.

So your a creative...a designer, a copywriter, a photographer and you've never found yourself in the situation where you need to talk to clients. But now you're a freelancer and you're the sole person on the hook for negotiating contracts, discussing scope and talking timelines. How do you even get started? What are you supposed to say? How much slang can you use. Your host and founder of KAR Creative, Kennedy Roberts, talks all of this and more in this weeks episode.

We're bacccckkk (yet again) and this time we're chatting about taxes. You're in for 20 minutes of pure financial fun while I review what a tax write off is, how to organize your freelance finances and what NOT to do when you're writing things off. Curious? Get to listening! We'll be back next Tuesday and for the next 10 Tuesday's after that.
Today we're chatting with our good friend, Charlee Black of Good Friends Studio out of Indianapolis, Indiana. Charlee is the founder and lead photographer of her own studio and currently in the process of building her physical space, BLOT Creative Studios.

We also discuss pop-tart gate, supporting others in the creative community and all of the projects Charlee has going on.
