Reigniting the Fire Within You: Purpose and Passion in Design
Today, designers are finding themselves in the same position as most businesses, trudging through the post-2008 economy. Even as conditions improve, clients seem stuck in a recessionary mindset – one in which they expect, even demand, to get more but pay less. In this session you will learn how to enjoy the design business again, manage your time, relationships and resources; reconcile fee structures with work; and develop the right plans (not just social media!) while creating SMART goals.

Define, Position, Present: Facing the Pricing Challenge
During this hour-long, recorded tele-seminar, Lloyd walks through his standard letter of agreement that he uses and reflects on the best ways to:
- Define your clients’ needs
- Position your services
- Present them in an easy to understand and enforceable letter of agreement
In the last year you were most likely challenged by client requests for pricing that is different than you are used to charging. You might be used to charging for time and materials or some sort of mark-up on product and have gotten push-back. Most people have had the experience of client’s asking for a fixed-fee on their projects, wanting to know what your fees are “all-in” even though they do not know what they will require from you, and will expect you to perform above and beyond your pay grade.
Even if you are happy with your current agreement, you will be able to follow along and gain valuable tips for negotiating your next agreement and possibly restructuring your current agreement.
