I’m Colleen Gratzer
I’ve been in the design industry since 1997. I have been there, done that, seen it all—the good, the bad and the ugly.
I experienced all of the typical obstacles that freelancers face. It was so frustrating!
But I overcame these obstacles and have had a successful business since 2003.
I want to help you overcome these obstacles too and be a confident and respected designer-expert.

The Design Domination Podcast
“As interesting as they might be, most graphic design podcasts center around small talk and filler. Colleen takes a different route. She offers solid, experienced insight combined with highly useful discussions with industry experts. I think this is the only podcast where I’ve actually hit the Pause button to take notes.”
“Colleen’s podcast is the hidden gem every self-respecting designer needs to find. In two episodes, I’ve figured out how to position myself to stand out from crowdsourcing sites and Fiverr, learned what clients who value design look for and how to attract these kinds of people, plus so much more. I can’t wait to dive into more episodes.”
