The new age designer is no longer just a designer.
The designer is now a creative builder, who takes on the process end to end. At least that’s what recent clients want from me:
✔ User & market research
✔ Design and launch website
✔ Validate product market fit
✔ Design and launch social media
✔ Create videos for social media
✔ Do SEO for long term reach
✔ Launch ad campaigns
Design now isn't just pixels. It's running a brand.
Design is at the heart of every business:
✔ User & market research
✔ Website & app UI design and validation
✔ Social media content
✔ SEO
✔ Ads & video content
Leave out just one of these, and you leave a lot of money on the table.
A website design in Figma alone won’t make you sales.
You need:
→ Fans on social media who’ll buy from you
→ A brand to convince your fans
→ SEO for long term traffic
→ Rapid growth through video ads
Design is a core piece for all of these.
Today's designer is no longer just a UX/UI person, but a versatile creative builder.
I generated about 12 leads on the first week with a potential $15k revenue.
so... vicked is:
- design thinking
- quick web design and deploy
- consistent brand identity through social channels
- consistent video content
- Ads
- SEO
Your biz needs all of these to win.
If you hire a designer alone, that'll bring you $0 revenue.
Because there's no traffic at all.
My client was smart, and realized that in time so he subscribed to vicked.
With
- Insta and FB
- SEO
his biz is already gaining traction.
And I haven't started posting really yet.

@EllieExalt Contrast should be increased for better readability. Texts are hard to read even in good lighting conditions. Imagine someone looking at these in outdoors in sunlight.
Creative builders will conquer the world.
→ Less need for people specializing in 1 skill
→ Less open positions in IT
→ Less reliance on large teams
→ Less dependency on outsourcing work
→ Less overhead for growing businesses

Having a single website is not enough in 2024.
Imagine:
✖ you don't have any followers
✖ you don't have any online presence
Will a single website bring more customers? Hell no.
That's why vicked's online presence system is different:
✔ quick brand design
✔ website design and launch
✔ social media designs and videos
✔ SEO for long term
Now we're talking real traffic and real customers. This client of mine is a good example.
@BrettFromDJ Thanks for sharing, Brett.
I remember that you started tweeting at that time as well. Can I ask how you got your first clients, when your haven't had that many followers?
I really appreciate the honesty, and it's gotta be hard to handle that.
Some wise person said once:
"Your friend is who you can just sit next to, without having the urge to talk to, because of X and Y reason"
And I like that notion.
I have a handful of really close friends (and my wife) who I can do this with.
But anybody else for example from work would def not fit that.
I think our fake world often dictates that you need to be partying, going out, traveling to this and that exotic locations.
Thing is these surface things don't really matter.
What I enjoy the most is simplicity: chill with friends in the forest at a campfire. Nothing can replace that.
If I had to restart and had no friends at all right now, I'd probably look for communities where the topic interests me. Where I can find like minded people. Maybe people who don't want to change the world. Who don't work their asses off. Just simple people..
For example, a folk dance club. There'll def be a lot of human interactions there (and pretty funny ones as well) which could be great for a start.
Had the pleasure to work on this quick re-design of the Projects page card layout for @CreatedByJannn@3DAIStudio
I've been following his work for some time, and got really excited to get involved.
