Fashion Designers Get Paid: Build Your Fashion Career On Your Own Terms

SFD032: Best of 2017


Listen Later

It's almost the end of the year, and to celebrate how far the show has come in just 6 short months (thanks to you for all the support!), I put together a Best Of episode to feature some of my favorite clips.

Now, this was no easy task. I re-listened to a ton of tracks and it was really hard to pick the best ones.

If you only listen to one entire episode from the show, let it be this one.

To make things easy for you, I broke it into 3 main categories: launching a label, freelancing, and career growth. There's also a short bonus clip at the end :)

Here are the timestamps if you want to jump around:

Launching a Label: 04:31 Freelancing: 14:14 Career Growth: 25:12

And if you want to hear the full episode for any of the featured clips, here's the list:

Launching Your Label

Episode 20: Jay Arbetman of The Sourcing District on how to find low minimum fabrics and trims for your fashion collection. Episode 9: Traceena and Lauren of The Sales Concept on how to increase sales and profits for your fashion brand.

Freelancing

Episode 2: Melissa Mendez on how to get more freelance clients with email pitching  (with word for word scripts you can use). Episode 4: Marissa Borelli on how to stay in touch with prospects so they always think of you first when they have work.

Career Growth

Episode 18: Dior of Pepper Your Talk on how to write a resume that gets you the job, even if you have no experience. Episode 6: Chris Kidd of Style Careers on how experienced designers can make sure they get the wage they deserve

Bonus Clip on Fighting Fear

Solomon is one of those kind hearted soft souled people that you just want to give a giant bear hug to. I've not met him in real life, but when I do, that hug is happening (you've been warned, Solomon, you've been warned!). There are two parts to his episode, one on creativity, one on fear. If you're feeling creatively stuck or are terrified of putting yourself out there, these episodes are mandatory listening. The sound of his voice alone with soothe you - pinky promise ;)

Episode 23: Solomon on staying creative even when you're uninspired or feel like there's never any time. Episode 24 (the clip is from this one): Solomon on getting past fear and maintaining your cool so you can get through any situation.

If you would have asked me a couple years ago if I'd be sitting here recording a weekly podcast and interviewing industry experts from around the world, I would have said no way.

But here I am, and I'm loving every minute of it.

Thank you for your support and continued listening. Can't wait to see what 2018 brings for all of us.
