Graphic Designer to Web Designer (Josh's Interview from The Angry Designer Podcast)

Ep. 321 - I’ve had hundreds of conversations the last few years with graphic designers who are transitioning to web design or who want to add web design to their suite of services.
Why? Well, it might be because that’s the path I took but it also might be because (at least in my experience) ALL ROADS LEAD TO WEBSITES.
Even when I was solely doing graphic and print design, clients asked if I did websites. Which means that graphic design is a perfect lead generator for web design.
In this special episode of the podcast, I’m sharing a conversation I had recently on The Angry Designer podcast where we dug into my journey from graphic designer to web designer.
We cover:
How to balance graphic design AND web design together
Why graphics designers have a massive edge when getting into web
How much it costs to get started in web design compared to graphic design
How to begin offering web design to current and past clients
The landscape and plethora of opportunities in web design in 2024 and beyond
If you’re a graphic designer who’s capped at a revenue level, it might be time to transition to web and luckily, there are so many ways to do it in a way that works for you. I hope my journey helps give you a proven path to follow 🙂
