Signature offers, growing a team, landing big clients, proprietary methods, taking care of legal, and more. This interview with Kathleen Shannon and Tara Street of Braid Creative will give you a behind-the-scenes peek into growing a successful graphic design and branding agency, and how a contract helped them feel confident enough to stick to their guns to work with Brené Brown.

  • The benefit of having one signature offer for clients to access your creative services
  • How creating solid contracts can help you be more clear and consistent about the deliverables you provide to your client
  • The difference between men and women when it comes to negotiating contracts (!)
  • How growing your team first can bring in bigger clients later

  • Why no contract can replace trusting your gut and intuition (Kathleen's Oprah clause!)
