05. Becoming a Professional Freelance Designer with No Experience - Alex Parmar

This episode touches upon becoming a freelance designer with absolutely no prior experience. Welcome to my Graphic Design Podcast.

Today I’m going to be talking with Alex Parmar. Alex had very little design experience before becoming a luxury and minimal brand designer. He had no professional design training and studied marketing for a long time before taking the leap of faith into freelancing.

In this episode we dive into how Alex's marketing background helps him promote his skills and get clients, if minimalism offered an easier entry level into design and the way Alex uses social media as his main portfolio to get clients - don’t forget to turn on your notifications so that you don’t miss any episodes of The Creatively Conscious Podcast!

I share videos/ episodes teaching all about advice for a beginner graphic designer with how to better their design career. This podcast aims to help designers that want to know how to begin and start but also how to develop over time.
