In this episode of our Founder Voice series, Abby chats to Josh Hall, a web designer turned educator, community builder, founder of Web Designer Pro™, and host of the Web Design Business Podcast.
Josh built and scaled his own web design agency for over a decade before selling it and now teaches web designers how to build sustainable businesses of their own. In this chat, we talk accidental entrepreneurship, personal branding, and why success doesn’t have to mean 7-figure revenue and an 80-hour work week (thank God).
What we yapped about:
- Josh’s path from musician to web designer to educator
- Running and selling a web design agency
- The difference between a personal brand and a business brand
- How WordPress changed the web design industry
- Why “make a million by 25” is terrible advice for founders
- Building a business that actually fits around your life
