desertcart.com: Work for Money, Design for Love: Answers to the Most Frequently Asked Questions About Starting and Running a Successful Design Business (Voices That Matter): 8601400881217: Airey, David: Books

Review: Informative and Motivational. - I spent years in an advertising agency only to realize that it wasn't what I initially wanted to do. I was a graphic designer. I created art that was applicable to promoting a message for the companies that hired my agency. But, working under the iron fist of the art director, creative director and the client, I felt that my creativity was getting lost in their backwards thinking. Airey's book gave me the know how and courage to close that chapter of my life and begin anew. I'm now a competent freelance designer that knows how to say "NO!" to a client that just won't help me further my business and allow for my creativity and ideas to run wild. This book has provided me with many great starting points for my business and I'm positive that any creative person out there will benefit from a read through, or two.
Review: A great read - I have followed David's blog for a couple of years now and also read his first book Logo Design Love so this was a no brainer for me. If you are familiar with David's writing, then you won't be surprised to hear that this book is an easy read. David always keeps things simple and easy to understand. I'd say about half of the book is his experience and the other half are contributions from fellow designers who started their own design businesses. There are some really valuable insights in the book and some of the best ones are more about what not to do. Starting a business of any kind is a huge undertaking. If you are starting a design business, this covers pretty much everything you need to get started. Chances are you will make mistakes along the way so read this book and hopefully you'll make less of them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Informative and Motivational.
*by D***O on March 12, 2013*

I spent years in an advertising agency only to realize that it wasn't what I initially wanted to do. I was a graphic designer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really great book for any designer or freelancer
*by N***L on June 5, 2017*

Really great book for any designer or freelancer. I would recommend it for anyone thinking about taking that leap to working for themselves. Even for those that have been at it for a while, there are stories and points that Airey makes that may surprise you. I'm very happy that i came across this book. Funny enough I was going to make some of the same mistakes Airey has stated he made in his career, but after reading his experiences it's help put me in the right direction. Full of great tips and lessons by Airey and other well respected creative professionals.
