I see a lot of creatives comparing themselves to their successful peers, saying things like:

“Oh they have more experience than me, that’s why they can charge higher prices…”

“They have a bigger network than me, that’s why they have more clients!”

"They niched down, but I don't want to do that because it's not fun".

While having experience, a network, and a niche are helpful to becoming a successful creative, I want to show you an example of how those things are NOT all required when you're early in your career.
Meet Joana Galvão.
Joana is the owner of the incredibly successful GiF Design Studios. When she launched her freelance design career straight out of college, her calendar was booked solid for 6 months...
Without years and years of experience…
Without a long list of contacts and relationships built up over time…
