"Double your fee without drawing more" say whaaat!?

First things first, DOORS CLOSE TONIGHT! We start on Monday. https://www.thegoodshipillustration.com/business Be lovely to see you in there. Psssst, this is the lowest the price will ever be, and we're not opening the doors again until September 2026. 🚢🚢🚢 Right. Podcast shownotes. Yes. Where were we? Here's a very quick lesson on copyright and licensing before you listen to this episode 🤓 Copyright = you own the work. Licence = permission your client buys to use the work in specific ways (where, how long, which media, exclusive or not). Ok, lesson's over. Thanks for coming. If you'd like to earn more without drawing more, then keep your copyright, license the usage, and price it properly. It's juicy, not boring. We promise!
