📢 Remember: Break the “thieves in your heart”—the desire for awards and recognition—and focus on the true purpose of design.

[Alex Hsieh @AlexHseih]

🌟 Insights from Hua Shan’s Article 🌟

📚 “The Purpose of Design”

When we design, what are we aiming for? According to Hua Shan, a renowned expert from China, there are four key objectives in design:

1. Solve the client’s problems
2. Create beautiful designs
3. Earn public acclaim
4. Achieve innovative breakthroughs

However, at Hua & Hua, we prioritize the first two goals and dismiss the latter two because they cater more to the designer’s ego than the client’s needs. Our motto: “Take the client’s money, serve the client’s purpose.”

#DesignPurpose #ClientFirst #BrandBuilding #Craftsmanship #HuaShan #DesignInsights

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Client Focus: Always prioritize solving client problems.
• Public Aesthetics: Aim for designs that resonate with the majority.
• Craftsmanship: Strive for flawless execution in every detail.
• Brand Building: Design should enhance brand recognition and sales.

[Alex Hsieh @AlexHseih]

🚀 Lesson Learned: Always prioritize customer feedback to make your product or service unique and valuable.

Lately, I’ve been busy updating my Udemy course on the GCP ACE Exam to enhance its quality. Here’s a quick update:

1️⃣ Published the course in December 2023.
2️⃣ Received valuable feedback recently, prompting an update for better quality.
3️⃣ 75% of users haven’t commented, so there’s room to engage them.
4️⃣ 5-10% provided low ratings but positive feedback.
5️⃣ Stay positive and open to feedback to keep improving! 💪

Do you have similar experience to improve your product?
