Solo - freelance business masterclass for independent designers

Half way through last year I embarked on a new journey. A side project to complement my daily freelance UX/UI design work.

I've been writing. A LOT. Writing about design, freelancing, indie business-running, client acquisition & communication, how to kick ass at being ultra-professional, how to price your design work as a freelancer consultant, and much much more.

17 years of freelance design knowledge started pouring out and I can't stop it. You can read it all for free on https://solowork.co and also at https://medium.com/@benek

During a slow patch of work last month I designed, coded, and developed this little blog site in a about 2 weeks. It's not perfect, but it's a start. It's simply and will expand and evolve over time. It's been a good process for me to get better at accepting that things don't have to be perfect. Getting something out there is better than a perfect thing half unfinished.

So I'm not posting this because I'm super proud of this design. It's just OK. More than your likes and superficial comments, what I'd really love to hear about is what kind of topics you think would be most valuable? What should I write about next? I'm all ears.

My goal is to create the most valuable content I can, and get a lot of people reading and benefiting from it. So far the feedback I've gotten has been heartwarming, but I'm just getting started.
