How I Got My Spark Back

How Listening to Clients Reignited My Creativity

Since launching Lindsay Dev Designs in February 2025, my focus has always been on creating thoughtful, high-quality design work. But as my business has grown, I’ve realized that what I truly enjoy most isn’t just designing, it’s the conversations that happen before the design ever begins. Talking with both current and potential clients about their goals and challenges has become the part of my work that fuels my creativity the most.

How Listening to Clients Reignited My Creativity

Since launching Lindsay Dev Designs in February 2025, my focus has always been on creating thoughtful, high-quality design work. But as my business has grown, I’ve realized that what I truly enjoy most isn’t just designing, it’s the conversations that happen before the design ever begins. Talking with both current and potential clients about their goals and challenges has become the part of my work that fuels my creativity the most.

Listening to My Clients

Design will always be at the heart of what I do, but I’ve found a deeper connection in the strategy behind it. Understanding what my clients need and why they need it helps me create more intentional work. For me, my conversations flow best when I can focus fully on the discussion instead of taking notes; recording our talks helps me stay present and ask more meaningful questions in the moment. Every project starts with listening, asking questions, and finding creative ways to solve problems through smart marketing and design solutions that support their goals.

Building a Collaborative Team

As my workload has grown, I’ve started building a small team to help support my clients. I now collaborate with a photographer, videographer, copywriter, Spanish translator, and social media manager. Together with these talented humans, I’m able to focus more on developing marketing strategies and approach each project from multiple angles, ensuring every design or campaign feels cohesive, effective, and aligned with each client’s brand.

Focusing on What I Love

Shifting my time toward client relationships and marketing strategy has allowed me to lean into what I’m truly passionate about. Whether it’s brainstorming a campaign, or helping refine a brand message, I love uncovering creative ways to help my clients grow. The more time I spend in these conversations, the more inspired I feel about my work.

Growing Through Challenges

Running a business has been full of challenges, especially in these early months of growing Lindsay Dev Designs. But even on the toughest days, it doesn’t feel like work when I’m doing something I love. Being able to help people tell their stories and build their brands is exactly where I want to be.
