Workin’ Wednesdays: To Do List

January 4, 2012 · Posted in design, marriage, Parenting · Comment 

Here is what I’m working on in a list format:

Home

  • Mooch’s birthday plans
  • Hannibal’s birthday plans
  • Reorganizing the classroom closet

Marriage

  • Less sarcasm (from me mostly, oddly enough)

Kids

  • More outdoor time

Things We Love

I know it has been a while.  I’ve been diligently making presents for my little ones.  I will have an update for you all after the new year, but I wanted to share the holiday greeting that I designed and sent to all of our loved ones.  I definitely love my readers as well. :)

Workin’ Wednesdays: Feast or Famine

September 8, 2011 · Posted in clients, design, graphic design, workin' wednesdays · Comment 

The feast or famine cycle is real! Brainstorming side hustles is what I’ve been up to. During my business’ down time, I try to increase my networks by building relationships with people in my niche. I also use the time when I’m not designing as an opportunity to market heavily. The only problem with this is that the bills keep rolling in. :-O

I’m now looking at ways to create mailbox money for myself (i.e cash that rolls in when I’m not doing anything). Some of the stuff I’ve come up with include downloadable template designs, developing a few WordPress themes, and joining Sugardaddies.com. The last one is a joke, but seriously, times are hard.

Workin’ Wednesdays: Pat My Back & I’ll Pat Yours

There’s nothing like a repeat client, who also gives referrals.  Emmy award nominated choreographer, Jeffrey Page, hired my design firm, Suuru, again.  The brother has sent numerous dollars in my door — referring three paying clients in the last two months.  Here is the mock up of the e-newsletter that I designed for him last week.  It doesn’t include all of the info that ended up in the final html version, but I did set a link through to his You Tube channel, so you can check him out, hire him for a residency, to choreograph a video, or to teach your grandma how to Dougie *wink.*  Enjoy!
