Any successful graphic/web designers here?

[Guardian-1Participant 35]

Hello MGTOW brothers,

Im really would like to know how many freelance/ full-time graphic designers here have achieved success. I’m a year out of college and I haven’t had that much success trying to get a job so I’m starting to look towards the freelance area. My ultimate goal is to eventually have my own graphic design business. So for those who have achieved success or have their own business, how did you do it? any tips? If you have your own business what is it?

What would Black Superman do? That’s what you need to ask yourself.

As a photographer since High school I have never had my own business, I#ve worked for major companies and some other accomplished photographers here in N.Ireland however there is so much competition these days it#s an extremely hard road. Even my current employer, who has won the photographer of the year award twice in a row says so and he#s been at it for over 25 years. Honestly I wouldn#t recommend it in it#s current form, I#ve worked in advertising agencies and they#re dominated by talentless, bitchy, opinionated women – even if you manage to become successful you#ll hate it. My advice is to branch into something closer to the STEM field, it#s hard work and like me you might not come naturally to it however You#re much more likely to earn a descent wage and keep from spending half your days dealing with a knife in your back. If you#re determined to go ahead then I#d focus on getting some good references from other designers – there are still some good men out there with lots of experience however bear in mind that many of them are from the previous generation and tend to hold women in high esteem so you#re going to have to bite down your anger on a daily basis – I know I currently do.
