Are you curious what other design firms do to succeed? Do you wish you could be a fly on the wall to understand their inner workings? After working with hundreds of leading creative/design teams over the years, I have curated and compiled an evolving list of smart business strategies that define successful firms. This session highlights those top business practices across different areas including organizational structures, staffing strategies, pricing, client and project management, marketing, and new business development. This session provides very practical and actionable strategies that can easily be implemented and are often the foundation of truly great creative teams.
