It's true that the surface pattern design market may seem oversaturated with many talented designers and that it could make it more difficult to sell your designs...

But it's also true that more opportunities are available than ever before because of how crowded the market has become -- and in this episode of the Design and Shine podcast, I share exactly how you can find them!

I share tips and strategies that will help you stand out as a professional designer no matter how much competition you encounter.

Listen to this episode to find out:

  • The pros and cons of how the surface pattern design market has changed in the time that I've been a professional designer
  • Why I believe there are LOTS of opportunities available and that there's never been a better time to start a surface pattern design business!
  • What it takes to stand out in the current market - and what is no longer going to cut it
  •  Why it's important to treat your design work as a business and not a hobby if you want to succeed - and what that mindset shift looks like.

Creating beautiful designs is not enough in 2025...

Your designs the way that you create and run your business need to be elevated to stand out - and I'm here to show you how to do it!
