I 100% agree on the discipline. I’m no web designer, but I do work from home. It’s very easy to get distracted simply because home is a different environment than the work office.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s been insightful.
Yes exactly! And If you don’t have a proper routine or don’t have someone making sure you are doing the work then it makes working from home even harder. Thank you for your comment and input - I always appreciate it!!
These Q&A’s are so helpful!
I’ve noticed that you use Wix now instead of Webflow for web design. Is there a reason for the switch or any particular pros/cons you’ve noticed? I’m in the process of trying to figure out which platform I like better, but curious to know your thoughts too 😊
This was super helpful and insightful! Thank you for sharing!
Love that you are so open and honest about this topics , especially how you get clients and how much you charge, is like talking with a friend ! I started as a freelancer 1 year and a half ago, as a branding and ux / ui designer. I’m on the phase now where I’m also getting some referrals but you are totally right , it comes by phases . I was wondering , does or did RUclips help you get clients ? I’m only on Instagram , and sometimes I feel like the requests that come from there are very low budget, so I was wondering if starting a RUclips channel makes sense giving it must be very time consuming as well? Or you would recommend TikTok? I know every case is different though .. anyways absolutely love your videos , you are so inspiring and talented 💕💕
Love this! Could you maybe make a video when you have time about your client process and about client calls? Like is it required to do client calls when starting out or can do it though email or another platform like notion?
Such a good question! I’ll make a more dedicated video to my current client process soon 😊
Hey Sha, Great Content! Do you run your agency or just a freelancer for now?
Hello, I'm a designer from Brazil and I truly admire your work. I was wondering if it would be possible for me to visit your country so we could have a meeting and talk a bit about design. I would love to offer a weekend filled with exchanging information. I'm sure we have a lot in common, and I would be thrilled to share my knowledge in design from a different perspective of the Southern Hemisphere. What do you think of the idea? Can I leave my email for us to discuss further?
