I used to make just $1,500/month as a freelance designer.
Now I pull in $100K/year running my own design consultancy.
It took me 3 years to crack the code on scaling my business.
đ§”đ Here's exactly how I did it (wonât be up for long!).

Over the last two years, I scaled my freelance income from $1,500/month to six figures annually.
In this thread, Iâll break down how I transitioned from doing everything myself to running a successful consultancy.
1/ Pick a niche and specialize
When I first started, I tried to do everything â from graphic design to web development.
But I realized that specializing is the key to charging higher rates.
I picked branding design as my niche, which allowed me to stand out and attract high-ticket clients.
2/ Build your personal brand
To grow my business, I needed visibility.
I started posting my design work on platforms like Dribbble and Behance, which attracted attention from potential clients.
Donât be afraid to put your work out there!
Clients often find me now through my online portfolio.
3/ Scale by hiring
Once I reached a steady client flow, I couldnât handle everything on my own.
So I started hiring other designers on a project basis.
This allowed me to take on bigger clients and focus on growing the business, rather than just doing the design work.
4/ Master the sales process
I learned that landing clients is more about sales than design skills.
I studied negotiation, sales techniques, and how to write effective proposals.
A well-structured pitch can make a huge difference when trying to land those high-ticket projects.
5/ Automate and streamline
The key to scaling is efficiency.
I began using project management tools like Trello and Asana to keep everything organized and on track.
Automation tools like Calendly and Dubsado helped streamline my client communication.
Thatâs how I grew my freelance design gig into a six-figure consultancy!
I hope this helps you on your journey.
