81. Are you overcomplicating your graphic design business?

Today we are talking about a trend we are seeing where designers overcomplicating All. The. Things. If this sounds like you, be sure to listen in. We love the saying 'a confused mind never buys' and that's true not only for clients deciding to work with you, but also for when they 'buy in' to the concepts you present! We think it might have a lot to do with non-enoughness and trying to prove our worth, but we see designers outsmarting themselves, which leads to over explaining, spending too much time on projects and over-delivering.  If you've got questions about The Academy, we have opened up our calendar for free 15 minute chats.
