9 years ago from Jamie Wilson, Design/Development @ Twilio.
In two weeks I'll be leaving the small branding agency I've been with for almost 9 years.
Does anybody have any advice for me as I move into product design full-time or any lessons learned through your experience going remote?
My experiences (full remote, full freelance since 2,5 years):

Thanks Ivo! Looking forward to reading about your experience.
This was really well said and presented, I'm glad to see that you can still live and make enough money in europe while working remotely and freelancing. Thank you for that sir!

I've been working remote for over 8 years.
Awesome. Thanks for the link!
I'd like to hear more about people doing graphic design remotely (not only screen but also print). If there's any.
Congrats on going remote! There was a thread here on DN a few months ago where people offered some tips and advice. I added some points there:
I also have written a couple posts on my transition from a medium-sized agency to product design and then some lessons learned having been on a product team for the last 18 months:
Thanks, Joshua. These are great!
