How this Logo Geek found his business freedom with Ian Paget

Today, I am speaking with graphic designer and entrepreneur, Ian Paget, founder of Logo Geek.  Personally, I am so excited about this episode because he’s sharing a very special milestone with us: we recorded this episode on Ian’s first day as a full-time entrepreneur.  

Today, Ian and I talk about:

• The yo-yo feeling he has about leaving his 9-5
• Both the logical and personal reasons for taking the leap into going full-time in his business
• Why trying to rack up social media followers isn’t a marketing strategy
• What he’s looking forward to now that he’s his own boss
• The affiliate marketing strategies that allowed him to quit his job
• What’s next for Ian? An amazing look into how he envisions his empire
