The journey to running a mature, profitable design firm is rarely an easy one. In this episode, Advocate-in-Chief, Kimberley Seldon shares some anecdotes on the path to success.

In this episode we learn:

  • clients will follow whatever rules you give them, so don’t give them lousy rules
  • years on the job does not guarantee success or even progress
  • sometimes our job is to say no, early in the project
  • the surest way to destroy project success is to allow clients to take the lead
