I'm very happy & nervous to share my new site I've been building. As creatives we've ALWAYS got the lingering 'site update' on the never-ending to-do list. The reality is designing for yourself is ....hard. But this is alive after way too long:

@John_Kavanagh John, posting this sort of stuff is a little odd to be honest. Last week you were at a convicted sexual abuser's party, as a plus one to someone with a civil rape charge – that's not me being provocative, it is what it is. You're opinion on these sorts of things feels jaded.

[Asa @AsaRodger]

I am, of course, biased. But I honestly believe when done right – good branding could be one of the most influential parts in securing funding for startups.

@Adobe hey, you offered me a free trial of adobe stock and then charged me £35.99 on day one of my 14 day free trial? Quite weird. Can you refund that please?

@Duduagency @BrettFromDJ It’s not owned by Elon.

@OliLondonTV @JennaLongoria She's good. Fact finding. And, as suspected, confirming that more was said than simply getting pronouns wrong (which is the narrative being proposed).

@katylcowan @BOC_ATM Jeeze, all the best with keeping on it Katy! Will def heed the advice 🙏🏼

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@katylcowan My god! Hope you're healing Katy, sounds like a proper wrestle you've had with this. This post makes me want to read more – have you written an article about it? Something like this in longer form would be a really, really interesting read and so relevant for... everyone?

@SkyHelpTeam So bad – what a useless team, that just fails again and again.

I've been on the phone (again) and you've simply re-booked for the 5th time, with no alternative solution. So I will wait for the engineers to ghost me again on tomorrow's scheduled visit.

[Asa @AsaRodger]

The award for worst provider in the history of setting up an account is going to @SkyUK. So bad it's unreal.

@SkyHelpTeam 22 days waiting for you to install WiFi, with engineer appts that haven't showed 4 times (each within a 5hr window).

How fucking useless can a company be?

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@SkyHelpTeam Have a look and enjoy the long read Tony. At this point, I'm happy to keep the conversation going here.

Connect with the team? Aren't you the team? It literally says 'SkyHelpTeam'. Where's the disconnect?

I've phoned 8 times over the last 22 days. That doesn't work I'm afraid.

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@SkyHelpTeam 🤣 Go read the case. 280 characters is nowhere near enough for this absolute shit show.

Safe to say I am losing hundreds of pounds as I've stayed in waiting for hours at a time, on 4 seperate missed appts, and you offered me a £10 @Tesco voucher as compensation... what a riot.

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam This is a warning to anyone thinking of using @SkyUK. Don't, turn and run.

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@katylcowan It will indeed! lets just hope it's not too brutal on many people's livelihoods 😬

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@katylcowan I think more so for small–mid sized businesses. Other than speed of volume, what does a large studio offer that a talented freelancer doesn't? If you don't need that volume and it's work one person can handle – then its about a third the price for a similar output.

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@BrettFromDJ I’m a fan of your ideas towards business but I don’t think this makes up a brand. Is there more to it? Did that take 30min?

Interested to hear…

@katylcowan @creativeboom "The decimation of sleep throughout industrialised nations is having a catastrophic impact on our health & wellness. It's a silent sleep-loss epidemic.

..Sleep is the greatest legal performance-enhancing drug that most people are probably neglecting."

@sleepdiplomat Matt Walker

[Asa @AsaRodger]

@katylcowan @creativeboom Also, to wake up and pull the trigger day-in day-out on being creative on demand is mentally taxing when you do it long-term. You have to fuel it, and one of the biggest parts of that fuel along with diet, exercise and inspiration is undeniably sleep.
