Here's How to Triple Your Illustration Clients in One Week, Even if You Hate 'Marketing'
The quickest, most effective way to land more jobs
without being annoying or spammy.
Hello fellow illustrator,
Having worked for myself as an illustrator for over nine years now, I've experienced the highs of being hired, but I'm all too familiar with long, frustrating periods of not getting any client work whatsoever.
For more than six years, my income from illustration fluctuated like a yoyo. I'd sometimes go months with not a thing from any potential clients, and I'd have to rely on other income sources to stay afloat.
I knew I had to market myself better, but was completely unfamiliar with how to do it. I didn't know how to sell myself, and where to do it. No one had ever shown me this stuff.
I often found myself losing confidence in my own work, because there weren't enough people willing to pay me for my illustrations.
I was also uncomfortable with the idea of selling myself. I just wanted to create beautiful things and make good money from it.

Many of the illustrators that I've worked with one-to-one, as well as many Red Lemon Club subscribers have echoed similar frustrations:
Talking to a lot of talented illustrators who are not seeing the success they deserve is very often heartbreaking.
It's particularly tough seeing that the demand for (particularly digital) visual communication is growing, and there truly is a lot of potential out there.
You only need to do a Google search to see that this is a reality, especially with the huge growth of the Internet.
"...the need for illustration is growing. Newspapers such as the Guardian and the Observer, meanwhile, are expanding into the internet's broad open spaces - spaces with plenty of room for illustration." - Chris Riddell, 2012
"The future of art and design looks very promising, and very different." - Darian Glover, 2013
"Vidyo Raises $20 Million to Address the Growth in Visual Communications as New “Internet of Things” Applications and Devices Emerge." - Yahoo Finance, July 2014
“Alex is one of the few illustrators that I truly respect. He’s in this game for the long term, and his attitudes and work ethic reflect this. Alex’s advice is always sound, and he teaches an effective, ethical and fun approach to getting the results illustrators are after.”

It might feel like opportunities are decreasing for some of you. The industry is also filling up fast with thousands of other illustrators producing outstanding work.
It can feel really overwhelming.

So, what can you do as an illustrator to get noticed, and earn a solid income from ideal clients?
I've spent over the last five years coming up with a way to most effectively win new client work and actually succeed as an illustrator.
I've failed miserably, but I've also seen big successes, working with companies like Google, Mars, Kraft, the BBC, and Wired Magazine.
I've also worked directly with more than fifteen illustrators as a coach over the past year, and learned a huge amount from teaching and cementing my ideas further by seeing what actually works in the real world.

The Massive Power of a 'Value Network'
One of the things we cover in the course is building a 'Value Network'. This is your close network of people that are in some way valuable to your business, and life, including prospects.
Most people do not address this absolutely fundamental piece of their illustration business.
Most people spend too much time promoting themselves on social media while totally neglecting to nurture a limited list of key people.
Having huge lists of people that you could be working with often leads to taking no action at all. We focus on limitation to generate focus and more internal energy.
The value network we build in the course is limited to 150 people only, and this makes a massive difference.
And I have found it to be the most fundamental part of not only bringing in illustration clients, but in having a successful life in general.
The guide explains exactly how to set this up, how to communicate with people in your network over time so that you begin bringing jobs and big opportunities into your life, and how to not let this overwhelm you.
The clients I have worked with can attest to the value of this.
"I had gotten to a point in my career where I had several successful projects, but getting work was getting harder and my energy level was low after a few years of working hard and barely making ends meet. Personally, I was tired and burned out, and everything I was doing wasn't leading to the results I desired: increased income, more creative projects or stable finances. I knew I didn't want to repeat the cycle another year.
Since using Alex's course, I have been making connections that have lead to new projects and a renewed energy to be in business for myself.
The course put me back on track. I didn't realize how much I felt alone in trying to figure out how to get unstuck.”

About the author:
A self-taught illustrator, Alex has spent the last nine years working with the best and the worst clients from locations around the world. He's currently based in London, UK.
He’s been through great highs, and huge lows. He’s been burned, lost money, and wasted a lot of time on poor projects.
He works with clients from Google, the BBC, Sony, ITV, and Saatchi & Saatchi.
Tom Redfern, Illustrator, former client of Alex
"I have learnt so much from Alex. Above all else, he has taught me the importance of being focused and organised in my business marketing strategy so that I can truly start to see the results that I desire.
Once you start to really implement Alex's strategies you WILL see results.
I now feel that I have the confidence to really move my business forward in 2015 and that is all down to Alex’s insights and deep knowledge of the modern and fast moving industry that we find ourselves working in."
Sam Octigan, Illustrator and Fine Artist, former client
"Alex has provided some of the most valuable and constructive help and advice I’ve received in my career to date.
The biggest and most practical benefit for myself was to figuring out how to build a simple client management system, based on Alex’s method’s and then how to put that system into practice.
Through working with Alex and implementing his ideas, I’ve grown my client list, but more importantly have a much better structure to work towards growing all aspects of what I do."
Who Exactly is 'How to Get Illustration Clients' for?
Freelance Illustrators
You work for yourself, perhaps on the side, and win some client work here and there. Anyone with a decent to great illustration portfolio that needs better exposure and more clients than just a handful are perfectly suited to the course.
Creative Freelancers
People other than illustrators, like graphic designers, writers and fine artists who are looking for clients, or to be commissioned for work, will also benefit hugely from this, even though some of the examples are more tailored to illustrators.
Coaches and Consultants
If you run a business providing, coaching, consulting or services of any kind, this course will really help you take your client attraction to the next level and help your own clients.
Who Will NOT Benefit from the Course?
Those without a developed skill/service and portfolio
This course is for illustrators who have already developed their skills, and have at least an ok portfolio of work that would interest prospects.
It will benefit those aspiring illustrators who still have work to do down the line, but be aware that good clients are attracted to developed portfolios.
Additionally, my focus is on helping you get clients, and as such, is less suited to illustrators who strictly want to sell products, though it will help.
People Who Don't Believe in Their Service
In order for you to see positive improvements in your business, you must have a certain level of confidence in your work, and do the action-steps inside the course.
This takes a certain amount of dedication to your craft, and those who don’t take consistent action, will not benefit from the course.
A Promise to You from Alex
I've built a thriving and lucrative illustration business, and gained a huge amount of insight into successfully attracting great on-going projects with quality clients.
I know that what I've learnt and put together here will transform your illustration career.
If you aren't entirely happy after two months of working on what you've learned, I will personally refund you the full price of the course.
That is a promise.
