I am looking for a mentor to improve my career as a freelance graphic designer & creative director.
I am a graphic designer with almost 7 years of experience between Italy and the UK, I am looking for a mentor to improve my business as a freelance. It would be good if it is for free, but I am opened to paid offers. Feel free to contact me here on the dots.

- The best advice I've had is "mentors choose their mentees". So whose career or work do you admire/want to emulate their path - choose yout top 10, and spend all your time on - how can you add value to them form a place of pure giving, knowing that at some point it will all come back to you/door will open - you just don't know from where or who yet.And - chances are you DO know what you need to do for your own business, its just that those things are uncomfortable af, right? Or involve a lot of uncertainty or potential failure (learning)?But the other side of that uncomfortable action is a LOT less crowded. Are you up for doing the things others aren't prepared to do?make the work X put the work out there X build relationships based on generosity = you winningMake bold moves, get noticed, give value!
- Great initiative! Mentoring can give a huge boost to a career, especially in a dynamic sector like graphic design and creative leadership. It might also be worth considering online platforms to find mentors or local professional networks in Italy and the UK. Good luck with your search, I'm sure you'll find a great mentor with your experience!
