"we need a design system" no you don't you just need a good designer

Design jobs that we'll see slowly fading away and one that we'll see needing more of. Fading away: The Basic Design Manager - because there are so many yet we don't need that many however having a good ONE is game changing. A good DM can pop in a Figma file and tweak files when

My job is to help you get work and to give you tools to become more successful. All you have to do is listen, try, and adjust to your own needs. Snag the courses at designfulltime.com. I make them affordable for everyone just $149 each.

I reached out to 4 designers on the same day few weeks ago for a project. One responded refusing to tell me their costs before I said budget, one wouldn't tell me pricing w/o a chat, one ghosted. One responded with simple price and I hired them instantly. Study that.

What do you do if you don’t have design work you can show because of NDAs or whatever? It’s simple. Listen.👇

Watching DANN©'s courses. It's fascinating to see how his advice differs from many other online tutors and sales professionals. No sleazy tricks or sales tactics, just honest communication. Refreshing.

"My work" is under NDA, can't share anything.

You all should be on Contra if you're looking for work. I don't understand why you're not yet tbh. Go where the clients are.

For better or worse, people do judge a book by its cover. Want to design great books with us? We're hiring a designer to craft beautiful covers and help share ideas of progress with the world. Apply via the link below and get to know us at press.stripe.com. 📚

Pay attention. Still early. You have a chance to stand out on Contra like early days of Dribbble.

It’s not rocket science y’all. Create good work and share it online. Then the rest will happen naturally.

You can now get paid on Dribbble! Get project requests from clients or create a proposal to send. Dribbble holds the money upfront until work is completed. 0% fees for pro members.

Love seeing friends make cool things.

My entire feed is about Contra right now. I hope they do what I think they're going to do.

Just because you can do some design, have a portfolio, and pay for a pro services doesn't not mean that you just magically get work. 1. You need to be good, honestly. 2. You need to promote yourself, daily. 3. You need to create work, weekly. That's the trick behind the magic.

This is going to be so much fun. Can’t wait!

Alex gets it. It’s not about your following, likes, and engagement if that’s not what you’re selling. If you’re a designer, you’re selling design so keep your number 1 the number 1.

If all you post is design advice and tips, then all you'll attract designers looking to grow. If all you post is design work, then you'll attract designers looking for inspiration, connections, and companies looking to hire you. You can do both. But understand your audience.
