How I become a @framer expert with $0 and made $15k:
โ
Backstory: I went from knowing nothing about Framer to becoming a certified Framer expert in 6 months while also making over $15k during the process.
โ
Here's how you could do the same in 90 days:
โ
1/ Learn the basics:
โ
โข Start understanding the basics of the tool. It's pretty similar to Figma, so if you know Figma, you could adapt pretty quickly.
โ
โข If not, go to (Framer Academy) website and go through it. You'll get a basic idea of how to navigate around.
โ
โข The most important things you need to have a good understanding of are: Stacks, responsiveness, components and CMS. If you have these four nailed down, you are pretty much on the right path.
โ
โข Quick tip โ Do not waste time stressing and trying to learn how to animate, adding effects, or naming layers in the beginning. These are not important. Focus on what mattersโthe basics.
โ
2/ Section projects:
โ
โข Start building in sections โ You don't have to build entire websites. Dissect a website into various sections like: Hero, navigation, buttons, features, footer, etc. and then tackle and master building each section one by one before you get to the next.
โ
Here are the YouTube channels I've personally used and found helpful:
โ
@learnframer - Framer University
@theryanhayward - Ryan Hayward
@thetimgabe - Tim Gabe
โ
3/ Replicate Templates:
โ
โข Framer Templates โ this is where you'll level up your Framer skills significantly. The Framer marketplace has tons of free templates from amazing creators. You should start using them and see the backend of these websites to understand how they are built.
โ
โข Try recreating them from scratch โ this will slowly cement your skills in building whole websites since you already know the basics.
โ
4/ Build your personal projects:
โ
โข By this time, you must be on a level where you can build projects on your own. You can now build your personal website and list your services.
โ
โข You don't need to have a real client portfolio โ you can start building and showcasing dummy projects. As you start getting real clients, add their work. This way, people know you're good with framer and you have good design skills.
โ
โข In the beginning you could also work with creators and businesses for free and build them small websites. If they like your work, you could request a testimonial. I am suggesting to do this for free since you'd be building dummy projects anyway, so why not real ones while gaining testimonials and potential future paid work.
โ
5/ Document the journey:
โ
โข This is only important if you want to make money. You've got to share your design works consistently. Do landing page redesigns, section redesigns, do giveaways etc. and post them regularly, consistency is the key here. This will help you attract clients.
โ
โข One thing you need to make sure of is to try replicating designs of the type of businesses you'd want to work with. So if you want to work with coaches, redesign other coach websites, if you want to work with SaaS then redesign SaaS websites.
โ
โข Quick Tip โ You could use websites like AppSumo, Crunchbase, and redesign websites of companies listed there. Most of them lack good designs. So this could be a good start. Make sure to give it your all and bring the best piece of your life every single time.
6/ Word of advice:
โ
โข Just knowing Framer won't get you far โ you need to have good designs because that's what attracts the eye. Framer development comes later when you want to bring those designs to life, so do not neglect the design part. It's most important to help you get where you want.
โ
โข Replicate great designs โ In this process, youโll learn how great designs are made, as well as it gives you confidence that you can actually build something world-class.
โ
โข During this period, when it's tough โ thatโs exactly when you have to push harder and figure things out. These moments help you level up your skills and tackle challenging designs. Seek out challenges in this phase, on the other side of it, you gain +1 design skills.
โ
7/ Apply with @contra and get the badge:
โ
โข Once you have all the skills โ go to Framer Experts Program on Contra and follow their instructions.
โ
โข If you've followed the steps and completed all the necessary requirements mentioned, and then applied. The framer team will review the application and hopefully accept you into their pool of framer experts.
