I think it's fair to say that my 25+ year career in design started with DPaint on an Amiga, and I'd be somewhere very different today without it.

A factor in all of this is how familiar we get with our phones.

An app or website we only use once a week or once a month needs to be more obvious and discoverable than the iPhone we pick up 100 times per day.

Expect to spend about 50% of your time actually “doing work” of consultancy for clients and the other 50% doing things like: Marketing, Business development (sales), Negotiations, kick-off meetings, contracts, Invoicing and chasing payments.

In fact in the early days, the proportion of your time doing “non-work” work will be significantly higher than 50%.
