Welcome to Episode 30 of the Profitable Web Designer Podcast, where we’re committed to helping web designers to stop undercharging, overdelivering, overworking, overworking and create profitable, sustainable web design businesses.

In this week’s episode I’m diving into some behind the scenes of the Simply Profitable Designer Summit!

3 lessons from this episode:

• You don’t always have to follow the pack. You can build your own table to sit at and invite your best clients to sit at it.
• There are SO many creative ways to authentically build those relationships without having to always be the expert.
• When you find yourself dreading a certain task, it’s probably because you’re making it mean something about you personally, rather than what you give.

I also breakdown:

• The different stages of business and what challenges I see web designers face at each level.
• The feelings that came up for me around acquiring the Simply Profitable Designer Summit and the responsibility I felt for taking over the experience of attendees.
• Why we changed up the format of the summit to better serve our ticket holders.
