Design Break

In this episode of the Design Break podcast, host Rocky Rock takes a fresh look at design subscriptions, a business model he was initially skeptical about. He shares how he rethought the concept and successfully implemented it as an add-on service to his design studio, Blue Cyclops. Rather than replacing traditional pricing models entirely, Rocky suggests creating multiple "offering streams" to cater to different client needs. He emphasizes the importance of tailoring subscriptions to benefit both freelancers and clients, avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach. This episode offers practical tips for freelancers considering design subscriptions, including thinking outside the box, creating diverse offerings, and being prepared to adapt based on client feedback. Rocky's journey from skeptic to advocate provides an insightful perspective on leveraging subscriptions to grow a freelance business while maintaining flexibility and client satisfaction.
