By FAR the easiest way to monetize your creative skills is by offering freelance services. The only issue with that approach is that it puts a cap on how much you could ever hope to earn per hour.<ul>
<li>$50 per hour? Sure.</li>
<li>$500 per hour? Maybe...</li>
<li>$5,000 per hour!? Possibly 
</li>
<li>$500,000 per hour? As a freelancer? There's no way that I know of...</li>
</ul>The other issue with the freelance business model is that if you're not working, then you're not earning a dime (unless you know some secret hack to get paid time off as a freelancer, in which case hmu).While freelancing can be a great way to get started as a designer, there's a far better business model that our podcast guest this week has used to earn up to $500k per hour–allowing her to travel the world full-time as a digital nomad.The business model is partnering with big brands via licensing, and Cat Coquillette has mastered the process of being a prolific creator while also getting her designs placed in some of the biggest stores in the world, including Target, Urban Outfitters, Nordstrom, Bed Bath & Beyond, and more.Listen now to hear how she built her design business from the ground up while skipping out on the freelance part entirely.In this episode you’ll discover:<ul>
<li>How to skip the freelance game and jump into scaleable income</li>
<li>A tax loophole to write off most of your travel expenses</li>
<li>80/20 for creatives - playing the numbers game</li>
<li>Using Print on Demand services to sell your designs</li>
<li>Being open to all opportunities</li>
<li>Handling criticism well</li>
<li>Contract negotiation - give and take</li>
<li>The importance of an active mailing list</li>
<li>Focusing on the important parts of your business</li>
