Design

I don't like designer pools; over time, they become gatekeepers (or worse, design linkedins)

Free market is better at rewarding enterprising designers, you can get faster exposure in the wild

Focus on building your personal brand instead of their platform

I miss my old talent network...

There are a LOT of startups pinging me about hiring designers right now but I don't have a great system/product for connecting 🤔

anyone building in this space again?
