Experimenting, Growing, & Loving Working InHouse with Alex Mera

Episode 345 Aired Wednesday, May 20, 2020 Do you think that all inHouse jobs are the same? Does your job value your side project? Do they even know about your hobbies? Would they ever consider using them at work? Do you get to work on a diverse team of incredible designers who believe in each other and see each others' strengths and potential? Our guest this week is, Alex Mera. He gets to work on a team that pushes each other and builds each other up. Alex is stretched all the time at his inHouse job. He has worked at the same company for 12 years and is ALWAYS being challenged.

In order to do that, you need to get out of your head and learn from other creative entrepreneurs. The problem is you're a solopreneur with limited knowledge and experience on what your next steps need to be which makes you feel uncertain and alone. We believe every entrepreneur should be supported, challenged, and encouraged as they grow their business. I understand how overwhelming and demanding building a creative business can be because I have been growing my business for 17 years. Here's how the group works: 1. I listen carefully to your goals and struggles 2. Work with you to identify patterns and unlock opportunities 3. I walk with you through this transformation and help you reach your business goals.
