I think this is great advice. I initially started out just doing freelance in school and fresh out of school. I made great money but it was hard to get clients anyone has ever heard of. Now that I am working with a larger team I have some fortune 500 work and I know more about the process and behind the scenes business stuff that makes a design team function. “Work for ‘the man’ before going freelance straight out of university or college.”

I never used to follow your interviews, but I'm getting a lot out of them. I totally agree with writing off the first hour in particular. If you don't do this, your whole day is distracted with checking rss, and emails. Great interview. I never used to follow your interviews, but I’m getting a lot out of them.

Good interview and some good points like taking inspiration from offline and writing off the first hour (now I feel less guilty for doing it!) And also on 'working for the man' before going freelance. Looking forward to Elliots book as well! Nathan Thanks JC and Elliot.
