Listen Later

Gail Doby experienced both frustration and joy with her design business. After earning a finance degree and working for a Fortune 500 company, she decided to get a design degree because her friends kept asking for her help. Ultimately, she began her consulting career with her friend and company co-founder, Erin Weir. Gail Doby Coaching & Consulting has helped thousands of design companies achieve success well beyond their expectations while doing the creative work they love. Some have doubled, tripled and even 10Xd their businesses.


In this episode, we discuss:

  • A creative entrepreneur’s struggle to make money with their business
  • The path from working for large corporations to entrepreneurship
  • Having the financial knowledge to receive just compensation for the service you provide
  • Having the right mindset to realize your worth
  • Understanding the value of your dreams
  • Connecting with your clients on an emotional and logical level
  • The importance of investing in coaching
  • Developing processes to enable others to perform tasks the way you want them done
  • The challenges of marketing a creative-based business


    • I hope you will find this episode as exciting and informative as I have. Erin was so generous to share her better business practices regarding getting a return on investment with your marketing.
