Yeah, freelancing's awesome but have you tried creating a productized service??
That's what we're talking about today with our guest Alex Szczurek, one of two founders of baked.design a design studio you can subscribe to month to month. We're talking about setting up a productized service, how to find your customers and how to scale beyond your own person when the work starts coming in more and more.
Other topics include Alex new side project Uncover.lab, a Figma component library, how to hire team members and when to let them go and how build a brand on Socials.
We also talk a little about burnout and handling the mental load of having a very successful business that generates a lot of work.
I hope you enjoy this one!
