“None of them got it right” đŸ„Ž

New episode out now! We’re quite punchy in this one. We go through the red flags that tell you everything you need to know about a client before the project even starts.

If you spot these things - run.

It’s REALLY simple: if you’re not putting yourself out there, nobody knows you exist.

New episode out now - CJ breaks down the uncomfy truth about marketing yourself as a creative - why it’s not optional, why it doesn’t have to be perfect, and why doing something is always better than doing nothing.

Being a good designer isn’t enough anymore 😐

New episode out now! We get brutally honest about the stuff nobody teaches you in design school - sacrifice, ego, money, and why the best designers don’t always make the most money.

We’ve got some good news
 we just launched a podcast. đŸ„ł

Now, you’re probably wondering
 why should you even give a shit and listen to what Jack and CJ have to say?

Well, over the past 3 years, we have not only built a wonderful friendship through our shared love for logo design, we’ve also gone from freelancers working in the corner of our bedrooms, to running design studios, working with brands all over the world, and actually making a living doing the thing we love.

BUT

The only reason we’ve been able to do that is because we have never gatekept anything from each other. Every mistake we’ve made with clients, money, projects, ideas
 we’ve shared with each other.

Everything we’ve learned about getting work signed off, finding balance, and building something sustainable
 we’ve shared with each other.

For the last 3 years, we’ve been jumping on calls nearly every week. Checking in, figuring things out, and having each other’s backs.

At the start of the year, we thought
 what if we just hit record on these calls? What if we ungatekept everything
 and gave it back to the community that got us here?

So that’s what this is. No fluff. No gatekeeping.
The good, the shit, the stuff that made us money and the stuff that lost it. We’re sharing it all. EVERYTHING!

We just dropped the first episode of Sticky Notes. If you want a couple of design mates in your corner every week
 please do go hit subscribe. It genuinely means THE WORLD to us. Building this stuff is tough. We need your help more than ever right now.

The truth is, we wouldn’t be here without you. So this is us giving everything we’ve learned across the past 3 years of freelancing and 10 years of being professional creatives, back to you.

Comment ‘Sticky Notes’ and we’ll send you a link to the first episode.

P.S.
We also poured a lot of time, love, and thought into the branding of this.

In a world moving fast with AI, we wanted to make something real
 so we spent the last 8 days building it all by hand in the studio. It’s messy, it’s human, it’s always evolving
 and it feels exactly like us.

Let’s go team đŸ–€đŸ’š
