7 steps to survive as a freelance graphic designer in India
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A graphic designer is a professional who visually communicates the message of a project by using images, typography, and colours. There is no active business in the 21st century which doesn’t use visual communications to communicate their brand messages.
Define your niche
----------------------------
Like every career-defining your niche in graphic design is important. Find what you can do best and become a pro at it. Defining your niche will help you get clarity and help you better explain your services to your clients.
Build your brand
--------------------------
There are tons of freelance graphic designers in the market so building your own personal brand will help you stand out and find clients. Use social media and make your online graphic design portfolio websites to showcase your work and get client testimonials for display.
Build your network
-----------------------------
One downside about freelance graphic designing is that you have to dedicate time to look for clients so it’s really important to build your network. Attend online events, get in touch with old clients and ask them if they have anything for you to work on.
Collaborate
------------------
Having good connections is a good thing but by collaborating with other freelance graphic designers you can bag bigger projects and it will help you improve your own skillset too.
Maintain work-life balance
-----------------------------------------
Life as a freelance graphic designer can be hectic sometimes. You might have a lot of projects to work on at once but finding balance is key. Only take new projects if it fits your routine without compromising on your personal life.
Make sure you get paid
------------------------------------
In the freelance business, it is not uncommon for a client to not pay or not pay the exact amount discussed before. So it’s smart to discuss these things in writing through email and wait for clients confirmation before you start working.
Set up your workspace
------------------------------------
There is more to being a freelance graphic designer than just having a desk. Invest in a computer that has good RAM and will let you work with ease without any lags. Buying an adobe creative suite might sound pricey but think of it as a long term investment from your side.
Online platforms to sell your services
------------------------------------------------------------
Here are a few popular online freelance websites where you can sell your services.

Etsy

I'm glad to have found your channel. I too am a designer who is wanting to get started as a full-time freelancer and was looking to educate myself on the subject before I get started properly. But wherever I looked, it was only men advising for it. Nothing wrong about it but it's sooo pleasing to see a woman freelancing for graphic designing especially and not just that but even helping others with her experience.
Your videos, as someone rightly put it out in the comments section here are 'to the point' and your 'way of speaking' and 'putting your message' across is very calming. I love the way you speak in your videos. And how you are helping others as well. And I also love that you are speaking in Hindi although I know English very well but I still find that beautiful somehow. You have earned a subscriber.
Remember that it's not how long you've been doing something that matters but what matters more is ''HOW you put your message across' and 'if it's able to strike a chord with others' who come to watch the content. In just a video or two, I was able to hit that subscribe button and that I must say is a compliment for you 🙂 keep up the good work. I am glad to have discovered your channel.
Comments like yours inspire us to push more such content! Thank you. Tune into this space for more content :)
