      +Jon F. Lee Marketing Communication Services Excuse me for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried - Larlazboon Predictable Domination (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a great one of a kind guide for unlocking the code to making 547 a day with simple mobile money pages without the headache. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my work colleague after a lifetime of fighting got excellent results with it.

    Nail on the head about hourly rates. I've used a similar example to the painters example. I always base the pay on the work and everything else is worked out in my head. Thanks for this!

    Thank you Mr. Blake for this video. I have been a freelance illustrator and animator for while now and I'm still learning new stuff. Godspeed

    I am a first time viewer. I have been in graphic design for a few years (not saying I am good at it) and this year I have decided to invest a little more time in it and this video helped answer a lot of questions. Thank you.

  • @BluelotusmediaUS

    Your videos are awesome. I've been doing design for many years, and I still get a lot out of your insights and tips.

    I finally got around to watching this (gutted that I missed it live), but it was very helpful. I'm currently looking for more freelance clients, so this was very pertinent to my situation. Thank you for your advice.

    Hi + Roberto Blake, thanks for the video,
    it’s so good. I have a question for you, related with the last topic. Where or
    how can I find a salesman?. Do you recommend some website or resource to find them?.
    Thanks again!

    Someone had asked tips for beginning illustrators in your video. Do you think showing yourself too soon would be a bad thing? Like being inexperienced or not being artistically developed yet? Or should you still go on and show your work, studies, sketches, etc. to build some kind of audience in social media?

    • @RobertoBlake
      @RobertoBlake  9 років тому +1

      Cristian J Rosas I would say show your work and be authentic about where you are in your journey.

    • @cristianjrosas2356
      @cristianjrosas2356 9 років тому +1

      Okay. Thought I'd get your opinion on that.
      Thank you for all these informative videos man! :)

      I also believe you need to practice in finding clients next to training your art skills, because its way harder for most people to find clients anyway.. plus you can always get better by practice and show them to clients who rejected you at first..
      i've heard a story where comic artists got rejected over 70 times, but kept sending work to them..
      One of them was going through the same hardships.. and now he's drawing Spawn for marvel comics.. no joke

    Hey roberto did you design your "create awesome" shirts, or have someone else do it?

    • @RobertoBlake
      @RobertoBlake  9 років тому

      JK JCGaming I designed the Create Awesome Shirts and Jordan Cuellar helped with sketching the lettering of the Always Be Creating shirts.

    • @jkjcgaming7764
      @jkjcgaming7764 9 років тому

      Roberto Blake Yeah I Remember you mentioning that he helped you with the always be creating shirts and mugs, anyways they both look great and i might pick one up some time!

    • @RobertoBlake
      @RobertoBlake  9 років тому +1

      Christian Brown Ultimately it comes down to your best work, usually the top 10% or 20% of results you've produced.

  • @stephanienoel2902

    I haven't been freelancing as a design but as a blogger. I feel like I need more education in the design area.

    • @stephanienoel2902
      @stephanienoel2902 9 років тому +1

      I actually have been trying to learn on my own the basics.
