Good Work!: Practical Advice for Starting & Scaling Your Creative Freelance Business - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
Most freelance creative businesses don't fail. They slowly suffocate.
Difficult clients who drain your energy. Rates you set by guessing. The feast-or-famine cycle that never seems to end. And underneath it all, one question that won't go away: Can I actually make this last?
Amy Weiher spent twenty years building a design studio from scratch—and made every expensive mistake so you don't have to. Good Work! is the practical, no-nonsense guide she wished she'd had: built for designers, illustrators, photographers, writers, developers, and other creative professionals who are serious about building a business that actually works.
Inside, you'll find:
- How to price confidently—and stop leaving money on the table
- The contracts and boundaries that protect your time before problems start
- How to find and attract ideal clients and spot red flags early
- Systems for doing exceptional work without burning out
- Smart approaches to delegation, crisis planning, and sustainable growth
This isn't theory. Every page comes from real experience—Amy's own, and dozens of creative entrepreneurs she interviewed who've built businesses on their own terms.
Keep it on your desk. Open it when a client situation goes sideways, when you need to raise your rates, or when you need a reminder of why you started.

Good Work! : Practical Advice for Starting & Scaling Your Creative Freelance Business
Vendeur : AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Allemagne
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - You love the creative work. The pricing, the clients, the feast-or-famine cycle-that's where things get hard.Running a creative freelance business isn't about the breakthrough moment. It's about what you do, every day, for years.Amy Weiher never planned to be a business owner. She stumbled into freelancing, figured it out the hard way, and built something she still wants to show up for. This book is what she wished she'd had at the start.Good Work! gives you six principles to build on: a solid foundation, a sustainable rhythm, the right clients, confident pricing, reliable delivery, and growth that doesn't burn you out. Not steps to follow once, or a launch checklist, but a practice-the kind you return to at year one, year five, and year fifteen, whenever something feels off or you're not sure what to do next. Grounded in 20+ years of real studio experience, with stories from fellow creatives who've been there too, this is practical advice from the field, not the classroom.
