I'm exploring how to grow on Contra as a designer, and here's something I'm reminding myself:
Having a good portfolio is important. But people also need a reason to discover your work, trust your skills, and start a conversation with you.
A few things I'm focusing on:
→ Sharing actual projects instead of just saying what I do. → Explaining the thinking behind my design decisions. → Connecting with people whose businesses I can help. → Showing up consistently instead of waiting for clients to find me. → Making it easy for potential clients to understand my services.
I'm a graphic designer specializing in ad campaign creatives, and I'm also exploring landing page and small website design.
I'd love to learn from others here:
