In this episode of Hustle Inspires Hustle, Alex Quin sits down with freelance graphic designer Ian Deloney to talk about his shift from working at Iconic to building his own design business. They explore the importance of combining creativity with solid business practices, the challenges of freelancing, and the power of long-term relationship building. Ian shares insights on client management, staying organized, and what it really takes to work with top-tier brands like Jägermeister and Target. This conversation offers valuable lessons for creatives who want to move beyond talent and build a sustainable, professional business.Episode Outline [00:00:00] Intro by Alex Quin – Introducing Ian Deloney [00:01:30] Catching up: Last meeting, shoutouts, mutual connections [00:03:45] Ian's exit from Iconic, launching his freelance design business [00:06:10] Ian's background in photography and creative roots [00:10:30] Transitioning from hobby to career: Finding the right major [00:13:00] The role of business knowledge in Ian's creative work [00:16:00] Alex's experience with content creation and its value in advertising [00:19:30] Ian's proudest recent projects: Jägermeister, SEEK, Kids Super [00:25:00] The impact of seeing work in real-life spaces like Target and billboards [00:28:00] The challenge of freelancing and staying flexible [00:31:45] The importance of relationship building over time [00:35:15] Client needs vs. creative vision: Putting ego aside [00:38:20] Key lessons from running your own business [00:42:00] Building infrastructure before going solo [00:47:00] Post-payment process: Staying organized and professional [00:51:10] Being dependable, not just talented [00:55:30] Common pitfalls among creatives [01:00:20] Final advice and mindset shift for freelancers [01:03:15] Ian's social handles and closing thoughtsWisdom NuggetsTalent Isn't Enough: Business Skills Matter : Many creatives over-focus on their art and neglect the importance of being organized and professional. Running a freelance business successfully requires business sense, clear communication, and client understanding—more than just good design.Don't Wait—Plant Seeds Early : Ian emphasizes that most of his current success comes from relationships and efforts made years ago. Creatives should build connections before they need them, not when they're desperate for work.Systems Before Sales: Prep for What Happens After 'Yes' : Freelancers often focus on winning projects but overlook what comes next. Having onboarding systems, case studies, and pitch materials ready improves credibility and client trust.Ego Kills Collaboration : Letting go of creative ego is key. Just because it's your favorite design doesn't mean it's right for the client. The best creatives learn to listen, adapt, and prioritize results over personal preference.Be a Joy to Work With : Reliability, speed, and professionalism can set you apart more than creativity alone. Clients want someone who respects their time, delivers on promises, and makes the process smooth.Power Quotes:"Case studies—even the small ones—are gold.” - Alex Quin"You have to be able to put your ego aside and do what's best for the client.” - Ian DeloneyConnect With Ian :Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/iandeloney/)Linkedin (https://www.linkedin.com/in/iandeloney/)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Our CommunityInstagram:(https://www.instagram.com/hustleinspireshustle)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/HustleInspires)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/company/hustle-inspires-hustle)Website: (https://hustleinspireshustle.com)*This page may contain affiliate links or sponsored content.

The Common Good podcast is a conversation about the significance of place, eliminating economic isolation and the structure of belonging. For this week's episode Chris LaRue, the Director of The Hive, speaks with Kristen Barker.In addition to being a fellow at the Hive, Kristen Barker is a social entrepreneur and the President and Co-Founder of Co-op Cincy and is a Co-Founder of 1worker1vote. She designs and leads participatory education events with English- and Spanish-speaking co-op workers, and helps worker-owners make their businesses more successful. Kristen also helps our design team determine the feasibility of potential co-op businesses, helps retiring business owners determine whether they can sell their business to their employees, and helps viable co-ops access the capital they need to leverage their ideas. Chris La Rue has been the Executive Director of The Hive since 2023. As the “chief storyteller,” Chris seeks to amplify the story of transformation The Hive has to tell: one in which people integrate the wisdom of our contemplative traditions in ways that make meaningful collective change possible. He believes that The Hive is uniquely positioned to create a better world by helping individuals find their people, and find their practice.The Hive is a grassroots mindfulness community curating multi-week classes, workshops and a Membership community. It has been formed by facilitators asking the question, "What are the resources that lie within our vast lineages, traditions, and modalities of healing, and how can we place them in service of the common good?" Check out Co-Op Fest on June 7th.Here's the writing shared by Howard Thurman: All around us worlds are dying and new worlds are being born; all around us life is dying and life is being born. The fruit ripens on the tree, the roots are silently at work in the darkness of the earth against a time when there shall be new lives, fresh blossoms, green fruit. Such is the growing edge! It is the extra breath from the exhausted lung, the one more thing to try when all else has failed, the upward reach of life when weariness closes in upon all endeavor. This is the basis of hope in moments of despair, the incentive to carry on when times are out of joint and men have lost their reason, the source of confidence when worlds crash and dreams whiten into ash. The birth of a child — life's most dramatic answer to death — this is the growing edge incarnate. Look well to the growing edge!This episode was produced by Joey Taylor and the music is from Jeff Gorman. You can find more information about the Common Good Collective here.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss several Buffalo Bills and NFL topics, including examining what Bills positional group currently feels like the biggest cause for concern going into the 2025 season.On the whole, the Bills appear to be loaded. That's evidenced by Buffalo being the only team in the league to be favored in every game this season as things stand. That doesn't mean the team is without flaws and concerns. The guys examine which positional group is currently giving them the most reason for concern as they get ready for training camp in July.Plus in news that broke shortly before the taping of this show, Bills defensive end Joey Bosa has a calf injury already. The guys react to that. Staying with the Bills, Matt also has thoughts on who, if either should be extended first between Connor McGovern and James Cook. Also, what does Matt think of Buffalo being selected to be on HBO's Hard Knocks this summer.Moving over to NFL talk, the guys take a stab at what team(s) could be in line to win their division this season that didn't last year. That plus thoughts on the tush push and playoff seeding staying intact and much more.You can follow Matt on Twitter @MattRichWarren and be sure to check out Buffalo Rumblingsfor your (really good) daily Bills content.Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red's at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium.

E223: Transition Rule #4 – Past Success ≠ Future Success Why do we say, "Past success does not equal future success?" This episode is for those transitioning JMOs who have experienced past success in the military and are working towards business leadership careers. Also, it is for those who have tasted success in the military and who want to avoid missteps in the transition. I teamed up with Tim Kirchner, and together we cover the following topics: Ego vs. Authentic-Self The ways past success can create a sense of comfort, control, and security. How it can make us feel like we've "arrived". How it can cloud our judgment and decision-making skills. Different ways we naturally tend to lose focus and get caught up in urgent and daily tasks, and how those things can get in the way of our goals. I share my experience and how I struggled with an unhealthy belief of "being owed" something in my next chapter. Being clear about your desired result and the value of seeking guidance and adopting a growth mindset, regardless of experience level. Past success is a very strong indicator of future potential. Encouragement on not losing focus, making the transition a priority, and how to stay a student in the transition. That's why Transition Rule #4 is: Past Success ≠ Future Success—not unless you change how you think and prepare. What Does “Past Success Does Not Equal Future Success” Mean? In the military, many leaders have led teams, made critical decisions, and delivered strong results. Success often followed a clear structure and defined roles. However, the business world operates differently. Past achievements don't automatically lead to future success in a new environment. There are two challenges that frequently show up during the transition: 1. EgoSome assume their accomplishments will speak for themselves. Yet, most hiring managers don't fully understand military roles. It becomes important to connect the dots and clearly show how experience applies. 2. Lack of FocusTransition preparation often gets delayed. Busy schedules take over, and planning gets pushed aside until it's nearly too late. Where Do These Challenges Appear Most Often? In Interviews:Even high-performing JMOs have received feedback such as, “Didn't show enough business understanding.” In these cases, the leadership skills were there—but the candidate hadn't prepared in the way business leaders expected. During Preparation:Some officers in our Development & Preparation Program (DPP) initially struggled to stay on track. On the other hand, those who began early and followed a clear plan arrived prepared—and it showed in their interviews. Why This Rule Matters Success in one setting doesn't guarantee success in another. Military leadership typically involves giving orders and following a chain of command. In contrast, business leadership calls for influence, adaptability, and quick decision-making. To thrive, adapting to new expectations is essential. The Right Mindset Stay Focused:Clear career goals help guide daily decisions. Every step forward should move closer to that goal. Stay Hungry and Humble:A learning mindset is critical. Seeking advice from those who understand both military and business environments can make a big difference. Staying hungry to grow and humble enough to learn creates long-term success. What to Do Next Start early.Don't wait to begin preparing. A strong plan—beyond just a resume—builds clarity and confidence. The earlier the process begins, the better the outcome. Simply put, early action leads to better results. The Big Takeaway Military experience builds a strong foundation, but it's only the beginning. Growth in business comes to those who remain coachable, curious, and committed to learning. That mindset earns the next success. Let's Take the Next Step Together If you realize past success does not equal future success,

Staying connected to Christian community and being honest with ourselves and God are the first steps toward restoration. Peter's story reminds us that our failures are not the end, but an invitation from Jesus to follow him into a renewed life of purpose.
