Beyond money, why do you exist? Discover your why and let it drive your passion into future projects.
Go from an adversarial client relationship to one of cooperation. Learn to ask better questions in sales conversations to get the answers you need to show clients you are worth it. Most importantly, get paid what you are worth.

I learned more about typography in this course than during my BA in graphic design. This gives me confidence that I can make effective layouts and better design of any kind. I also felt I was part of a community, who learned together. Once a week for seven weeks, Chris critiqued our submitted layouts and this motivated us to put knowledge into practice and submit our work. This course is the best investment I've made in myself in becoming a better graphic designer. And I've invested in a lot of courses and books.
