Start Here
Are you a creative freelancer? Start here…
We see creative people all around us living great lives: having a good work-life balance, making good money, working with great clients and creating amazing stuff.
Do you think those people are more talented than you? Or have more luck?
Probably not.
Here’s an alternative: you are dealing with problems that no one taught you the skills to deal with.
But what if you could actually learn how to better deal with clients?
Learn how to earn more money with the art you know how to create… What if you could increase your rates?
Learn how to better organize your time and get the important things done…
Learn to find more clients, better clients, who are fun to work with and are willing to pay you what you’re worth…
What if you could learn how to position yourself better? Differentiate yourself from other freelancers?
We think it is possible. Because we are doing it ourselves, and we are not uniquely talented or lucky. And we have a blast doing what we love to do.
This is what the nuSchool is about. A place where you can learn practical knowledge, and improve the way you work, feel, think and live.
We create content. Tons of it. Videos, tools, articles and images – to help you with the business side of your career. You never thought you have to learn business, but as a freelancer it’s not a choice, it’s a must. And guess what – it can be fun!
