I already had a design specific portfolio centered around startups, working for those that didn't have traction, usually working with the design director or founders themselves and then it dawned on me: These were my favorite people to freelance for. So I am taking a bold approach, got incorporated and now solely working for entrepreneurs and indie hackers, partnering with them for brand goods, product designs and landers.
Its a total pay cut from the previous big Agencies, Engines, Googles and other clients but maybe its worth it?
Has anyone done this in the past? Eager to hear some similar stories or see similar services.

(same website, different story).
It seems risky due to the pay cuts you mentioned but there's a potential for a big upside if you do a great job, they succeed and you can grow with them.
Dead link, it didn't work out?
I know http://www.chachu.co is another small two person team that works only with entrepreneurs. Do you guys develop too?
