How to explain what you do as a designer or writer

Episode 43: How to explain what you do as a designer or writer In today's episode, my guest Anders and I get a little philosophical. With both freelancing and in-house experience under our belt, we've both noticed one challenge that never seems to get any easier to solve: how to best describe what we do to clients or employers. No matter if it's about choosing a title or understanding a brief, going broad or niching down can make or break a career. Here are our thoughts on understanding what we do (as creatives) and explaining it to others. Learning outcomes: Popular titles in design Popular titles for writers How titles affect a pitch Describing what you do Defining what you do How niching down or being a generalist affect your chances of finding work Connect with your host, Nicole: nicoletells.com // Contentrookiepod.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicoletells/ [email protected] Connect with the guest, Anders: https://twitter.com/andersotherwise https://anders-creative.com/ Anders' new podcast 'How creatives work': https://anchor.fm/howcreativeswork/episodes/Welcome-to-How-Creatives-Work-e1mhemu
