@Reza: If you can ask that question, you already know the answer; you just haven’t admitted it to yourself. Many folks say “knowing when to say ‘no’” is the hardest thing to learn; I wouldn’t disagree with that one bit.

First of all, thanks for giving us this opportunity!

My question is: when should I incorporate or become an LLC? When do I know that I have outgrown being a sole proprietor? Is it a function of my income? If so what is the threshold?

Btw I bought the Unlimited Freelancer and like it very much. I am now seeing my freelancing in a whole new light. Thank you!

I know I’m jumping on the bandwagon a little late here and I apologize if the question has already been asked but what suggestions can you give on naming your business? I’ve heard a lot of things saying how important it is to choose the perfect business name when just starting out. Any thoughts?

my only question is: how and/or where finding new clients?….that’s the problem! :(

Little late to the party. My number one question when I started was how to set myself up for success. I’ve tried to put some of the things I learned in the ebook on my site.

It’d be great to hear how different people approach presenting branding concepts to a client. I have my way of working, but it’s always good to hear about different approaches. Do you present colours and examples of the logo in context in the first round, or wait until it has been refined a bit? I find some clients need more context than others to appreciate a design.
