    Freelance business is a full package of skills, as you said you can't be bad or good at all of them from the first time. But it is a process of enhancing the parts where we have a problem at. Very wonderful video dear Lauren!! 😊

    Funny cause my freelance business started by "accident" and I mean I didn't planned it, even the name was the name of a previous project I had, but just stayed with it and I'm glad it's not my name. It ends with Studio as well. Great video!

    Amazing tips! I have my own web design agency and this video was quite helpful. I have a question, what is the most common platform used by your student to build websites? I code mine from scratch but I feel like I am wasting time when I could simply learn a no code tool.

    Good you’re thinking with this! I always recommended Squarespace if you don’t want to code from scratch. Some use Wix or Webflow too. I created my design business website from scratch using WordPress but I did the design only and my developer did the coding.

    Can you tell me the possibilities for computer science students in this field?

  • @4TheCreatives

    @4TheCreatives

    10 ай бұрын

    Many graphic design programs will incorporate classes that include computer science concepts like coding and programming. However, it is not impossible to find a degree program that does not incorporate coding, and it is important to note that many successful graphic designers do not utilize code. In summary, Computer Science and Design and Computer Engineering are two related but distinct fields. While both fields are focused on technology and computing, they differ in their objectives, skill sets, and applications.

    Hey Lauren thanks for the videos I recently started my graphic design agency with my friend I'm the marketer/sales guy and he provides the services, so we turned it into an agency that we plan to scale We already had our first couple clients with twitter but I'm struggling with consistency in regards of getting leads And we're kinda still not locked in on our niche I would love to have a talk and gain some of your knowledge haha If you're cool, where can I contact you?
