Hello X! 👋🏾
Two days ago my LinkedIn account with 700+ followers got restricted. I tried everything to recover it but nothing worked.
I won't lie hurt. That was months of building, connecting, and sharing my work, gone overnight.

Before AI

Most small businesses in Nigeria used bad design from business centers and the designs barely stood out

Now With AI
They are doing the same thing
Bad design with AI that is still not standing out

Bad design will always find its place

UI UX Designers,

You have learnt how to vibecode with prompts
But that alone cannot get you a Job

➡️What happens when two people click the same button at the same time
➡️What happens when the payment webhook fires three times instead of one
➡️What stops someone who skips your form and hits your API directly
➡️How you rename a column without wiping live customer data
➡️What your users see when a third party API goes down
➡️Why the app is fast with 50 rows and dead at 50,000

You need to show clear understanding of these things for you to be able to take on that Product Engineering role or even solo-build something stable

Someone asked me,
"What do I actually send as a cold DM?"

Here's my answer.
I prefer leaning on revenue, not web design.

Business owners don't wake up thinking, "I need a new website."

They wake up thinking, "How do I get more customers?"

So instead of telling them what you can do, show them what you've already done.

Build a homepage concept, identify what's costing them leads, and explain how your version can help generate more enquiries and sales.

Sell the outcome.
Not the service.

That's the cold email I'd send.

A sample is below. Feel free to use it.
