Badass Creatives: marketing and business advice for creative entrepreneurs
Juliet Meeks is a full time artist and surface designer whose work has been featured on products from Birchbox. We talk about how she prepared to quit her day job as a graphic designer, how she got started printing her designs on fabrics, and how she makes extra money by teaching online classes via Skillshare.
Juliet is also someone that I have collaborated with over the years at my brand strategy studio, Prim’d Marketing. It’s been great to watch her business move from a branding-centric focus, over to pattern design, with Juliet becoming primarily known for her own original artwork. I thought she would be great to have come by the show so we can talk a bit about how to bring more of your art into your business, so you’re creating the kinds of work you enjoy vs. just fulfilling client briefs
