How to Set Up Your Freelance Design Business

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of BEYOND Design, I’m talking about the part of freelancing we often avoid in the beginning — setting up the basic foundation of your freelance design business.Not the fancy website.Not the perfect brand.Not seventeen apps and a dramatic business plan.Just the simple things that make you feel more legit, more organised, and less all over the place when a client finally asks, “Can you send me a quote?”We’ll talk about the four basics every freelance designer needs: admin, client basics, simple tools, and a clear online presence. Because sometimes the reason your business feels messy is not because you are not talented enough. It is because the structure behind the work is not holding you yet.I also share a simple 7-day get set up plan to help you start putting the right things in place without overthinking everything.You do not need to build the whole business in one day.You just need somewhere solid to stand.Read the full shownotes and 7-day checklist here Thanks for listening to BEYOND Design ✨If this episode spoke to you, here are a few ways to keep the conversation going:Website & Resources → kunshuis.comShop creative tools → The Kunshuis CollectiveShow notes & blogs → kunshuis.com/blogFree support for creatives:21-Day Creative Reset ChallengeDownload: Asking Better Questions (Client Guide)🖤 My favourite tools for life + business:The Playbook Planner — your creative sidekick for focus + flowThe Playbook Desk — a Notion-powered space to run your freelance business with easeLet’s connect & stay inspired:📸 Instagram Join the Beyond Design Room on FacebookBecause design is only 20%… the rest is life.Thanks for being here, friend.
