It's been 4 years since I made the inevitable leap to start my own business. There have been plenty of ups and downs along the way, but I am glad I did it. One of my favorite parts of providing graphic design and website services to clients is that I get to work with a very wide variety of businesses (over 150 clients and continuing to grow). Some examples of industries I've served are: label printing, movie production, movie distribution, cheese manufacturer, non-profit, legal, scrapbooking, real estate, mortgage, energy drink, mold detection, data center, fleet safety, leadership training, granite fabrication, consulting, and the list goes on...

I've worked with a lot of startups as well and I love learning about all the different business models. If you're wanting to start your own business, but not sure the idea will work or are just plain scared... there's only one way to know.
