You can run your own web design business from home – all you need is a computer and an internet connection.

Working for a design company? Freelancing? Under-utilised, unappreciated or uninspired? Do you want to break free from employment and run your own business, call the shots, and be your own boss? This is the book for you.

My names is Rob Cubbon. Setting up a business to design websites from home 10 years ago, was the BEST THING that ever happened to me.

Would you like to build websites for clients directly instead of going through middlemen? Do you want to work when you like, on what you like, and with whom you like? This book will help you find and keep great clients so you ensure a steady stream of income to your fledgling business.

Are you currently running a web design business or doing freelance web design from home and not making as much money as you would like? This book will make you think of yourself as a digital solutions company rather than an over-worked freelancer.

This book explains how to set up your business from home – the hardware and software you'll need. How to get clients – long term, quality clients that will recommend you and give you ongoing work. How to run web design projects. And how to diversify your business going forward to protect your business into the future.

This is not a "get rich quick" book. You are encouraged to start in your spare time and slowly but surely build up your long-term professional contacts and online authority. This will provide you with a solid base for whatever you want to achieve with your online business in the future.

We also move forward and talk about how to get the best-paying, low maintenance clients. How to retain them. How to conduct design projects. And, looking to the future, how to build in passive income streams to your company in order to ensure future growth.

Join me and experience the freedom of running your own web design business from home.

About the Author

Rob Cubbon has been successfully running a web design business since 2006 in London, UK. Rob's from England and lives in London. He has been working in the graphic and creative fields for longer than he cares to remember. And, doing that just for the money, just to get by and pay the mortgage. So life was fairly uninteresting until 2006 when he started a blog. Then he started his own company, the imaginatively titled Rob Cubbon Ltd, to provide design and marketing services to promote products, businesses and people on the internet and beyond. Rob is committed to showing you the positive side of entrepreneurship. For Rob, running his own business has been a liberating and amazing experience. But it can be, at times, lonely and exasperating. Rob runs meet up groups in London for entrepreneurs and blogs regularly on business, design and marketing.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I’m an Amazon bestselling author, online instructor, and former graphic and web designer who enjoys creating things.

In 2006 I was wasting my life away on a string of mundane jobs in offices. Since 2008 I’ve been working from home getting paid to do what I love and now travel the world running my 6-figure business.

I started my own company, the imaginatively titled Rob Cubbon Ltd, and website, the imaginatively titled RobCubbon.com, in 2006.

More recently I have been creating e-books and video courses on the subjects of running a web design business, online promotion, web design and passive income.

Being your own boss is an incredibly liberating experience but it can be challenging. I’m driven to help you experience the positive side of entrepreneurship, not the negative.

Mission statement: I want to help and inspire people to build sustainable online businesses, earn passive income and experience greater freedom and happiness in their lives.

I have free courses about WordPress, design, email marketing and Amazon KDP publishing, you can find these at https://robcubbon.com/freecourses

Web Design Business From Home--- With Little Effort and Earn money!!

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2013

Verified Purchase

There are many examples where author suggest some best tips to run a successful webdesign business , I like-

**“Is what I’m doing right now getting me where I want to go?”

**People will contact you wanting a website but 9 times out of 10 they won’t have thought about SEO, social media, a blog and sometimes even content. You need to offer as many of these services as possible.

** How to make your plans as SMART as possible – that is specific, measureable, achievable, realistic and timely.

**Why free don't work-“this won’t take you long”, “if you do this for free there’s a guarantee of future work” or “can you write a proposal on how to improve these 4 websites”.

**Even though, as I say, not all clients are created equally, I always treat everyone with the same respect and politeness. This is because, I believe, I am a brand. Everything I do reflects on my reputation and my business.

**Never use words like “difficult”, “delay”, “complicated”.
If we want to run a web business and creating some best passive income, must read this book.. It's a Jam.

This is a good introduction to web design for those wanting to know what it's all about. It is not comprehensive (eg it does not go into code at all) but it is a place to start for those thinking about Web design. Rob is genuine in wanting assist people on their path and very approachable if you would like to ask him anything ...this ebook is really a gem and well worth the price ..

A Go To book for opening and running your Web design business, by a successful Web designer and marketer

Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2014

Verified Purchase

I like this book for its practicality and insights on how to create and to maintain relationships with your clients, and to meet as many of their needs as you can. It's very pleasant to read and I found it helpful to hear first-hand how Rob created his business, what decisions he made regarding his focus, and why.

Update: Quite a few months later, I'm closer to being ready to open a little Web shop. Upon revisiting this book and also Rob's "Create The Website You Want With WordPress" I am reminded it's a complete Go To book for all the details of running your Web design business. Rob has written out the best working and customer procedures, warns not to work cheap and offers many other insightful tips. Rob has packed his books with what you need to do what he has done. Which he has indeed done, so I think it's nuts not to by this book if you want to open a Web design shop.

Not much information

I wanted to give this book the highest rating simply because of the subject matter, but I guess I was looking for a book that covered running a web design business in further detail. I know it was only $2.99, but after reading it, I walked away feeling empty. Not much depth.

It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This!

Rob Cubbons is such an amazing man. Not only is he brilliant and successful, he truly cares about other people. This is just another of his successful endeavors to mentor others and help them avoid the pitfalls of frustration and discouragement. In this book he guides you on a journey to becoming a successful home based web designer. He teaches you step by step with the methods that he has personally used. This book covers absolutely everything. I could brag all day about this awesome author and man, but as you can clearly see others have already beaten me to the punch. I highly recommend this book, as well as all of his other books and courses too.

Whenever you see the name, Rob Cubbons, you can rest assured that you will be gaining high quality, expert guidance and honest caring.

Better than a Webinar or 3-Day Conference

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2017

Verified Purchase

Better than any webinar or 3-day conference on how to start a business, Rob Cubbon has given us an in-depth look at how you can start, and grow, a web design business from anywhere. With clear direction, Rob has avoided all the hype and hysteria that accompanies so many "How To" books by mapping out how to start, grow, and maintain a web design business. I've been a web designer for over 20 years and this information is dead on. Follow it, and you will be well on your way to success. Don't waste your time, or money, on webinars or conferences when you can have everything you need to know in a lovely, compact book you can turn to time and again.

Real world wisdom on running a design business...and not just "being a designer".

Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2017

Verified Purchase

I'm halfway through this book and I am learning a lot! I've been a designer for a long time...I've got that down. But I've never been great at running the business, and that's where this book fills the gap. It's obvious that Rob has a lot of valuable, real-world wisdom to share. This book is making me think about what I am doing as a business...and not simply a designer. I can tell that the lessons learned in this book are going to pay big dividends down the road.

Highly recommend.

Inspiring guide to running your own web design business

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 22, 2017

Verified Purchase

I've been following Rob Cubbon for some time now. I can't remember how I came across him, it might have been from stumbling across the first edition of this book on Kindle. What I like about him is that he writes very honestly about what he's doing and comes across as a real person who genuinely wants to help others.

I wish I'd had a copy of this book when we were first starting out. "Running a Web Design Business From Home" was exactly what we were doing to start with and we really would have benefited from his guide. It feels in some ways that we've had a similar experience - starting out in our spare time and building up to the point of being able to quit our jobs and concentrate on the business full time. But, Rob has found a way to make passive income as well as from actively working on websites, which is really something to aspire to.

This book is a really easy, enjoyable read, packed with brilliant advice. There's the occasional thing I don't completely agree with, but on the whole I think this is a really solid book. What I like about it is that Rob is really positive and encouraging - if I hadn't already set up a business, this would give me the confidence to give it a go. I kind of feel like I want to work through the book and copy everything that Rob's done. And then take him out for a pint to say thank you.

Actually, one thing that I've really taken away from this (apart from inspiration with regards to passive income) is that there is a different mindset to being freelance and running a business. It's actually quite important and something worth reminding myself about every now and then.

If you're thinking of setting up your own web design business, or are working freelance but would like to not be so reliant on the hours you work bringing in money, or, like me, are already running a web design business but feel you need a bit of inspiration - go get yourself a copy of this book. It's really worth it.
