In this episode, I'm joined by India Sambuy, a talented freelance graphic designer and art director based in New York City. Together, we explore the ins and outs of building a successful creative business, from networking and client relations to developing a strong work ethic and personal brand.

India shares her journey from recent graduate to in-demand freelancer, offering valuable insights on overcoming imposter syndrome, managing client expectations, and staying organized in an ever-changing industry. We discuss the importance of mentorship, continuous learning, and pushing beyond your comfort zone to grow both personally and professionally. India's fresh perspective and practical advice will inspire you to take your creative business to the next level.

“Connect with people that you admire and talk to them. And I'm sure they can pass on great tips - that's what I constantly do. Keep learning, keep being excited with what you do is one of the most important things.”

Topics Covered:

  • The power of networking and word-of-mouth marketing
  • Strategies for staying organized and meeting deadlines as a freelancer
  • The importance of consistency in branding across all platforms
  • The benefits of pushing yourself outside your comfort zone
  • The role of authenticity in building a strong social media presence
