Experienced Designer

Module III

As an experienced designer, you've made a name for yourself and have a client base that's in need of your garments. Yet you feel as though you can still do more; design on a bigger level, reach more prospective clients, etc. There's a burning desire within you to see how much further you can take your passion. One thing that I had to learn the hard way is that as creatives, we tend to work more "in" our business and not "on" our business. Meaning, it's time to grow! Time to get uncomfortable and birth something that will outlive you. This course was designed to do just that. Throughout the course, you'll receive expert guidance from an industry professional; gaining insights into current trends, design aesthetics, and pricing methods for your projects.
