A lot of designers and creatives assume you need to be a business genius to make a passive income.
But the truth is that you just need to practice making a simple shift in your mindset.
If you want to make an income online you need to make a habit of carefully studying what sales online and why.
In this episode, I talk to Jeremy Vessey, owner of Hustle Supply Co. about how he built a six-figure font foundry by starting by solving a small problem for himself.
Here're some of my favorite takeaways from the interview:
- Study products selling online regularly. Think critically and ask yourself "Why?" they're doing so well.
- Create things that help your customers make the work they aspire to create.
- Don't hold your cards too close to your chest. Share your secrets and you'll gain loyal fans and customers.
- People fear if they sell what they do best no one will hire them. But creating products that showcase your best work actually whets clients appetites for custom work.
Enjoy!
