Big juicy clients - Graphic Designer Lyndsey Yates
What do you get when you connect community-minded freelancers who like working collaboratively? You get a collective, that’s what. It’s a bit like an agency, but with more freedom and shared responsibilities. Lyndsey formed her collective because she wanted to open herself up to some new opportunities. Bigger clients and meatier work. Let’s find out how it’s going, shall we?

Show Notes
Watching her partner Mark go freelance with great success, Lyndsey decided to join him. “If he can do it, why not me?", she asked herself.
Now the founder of a small collective, Nine Dots Creative, Lyndsey’s on the hunt for some big juicy clients.
We chat about the “Spark Up” business course Lyndsey took and how it lead her to launch Nine Dots, what life was like freelancing alongside Mark, and how she’s managing to run a collective on top of all the work she does as a solo freelancer.
