Freelance Forum: How to Succeed as an Artist in a Fiverr World

Find Out How Artists, Designers and Other Freelancers Can Win In Today’s Social Sharing Economy.

The freelance business has changed enormously in the last 10 years. The Internet has turned graphic design into a global marketplace. Apps and services like Fiverr and Canva are driving down prices. And of course, everyone with a mobile phone is now a photographer.

How are we supposed to compete with that? How can designers, illustrators, photographers and other freelancers still get paid what we’re worth?
