@jtbarnett: plz put your phone down for 5 minutes and listen 👂🏻 to what I am saying if you are a creative who wants to do your creative works to build a business or a lifestyle for yourself!!! ⭐️ because the entire landscape of how business is done and marketed has changed ‼️ and creatives are the most in demand people for businesses right now, and if that’s you I would love for you too be able to see it and feel it ❤️ and know your value and go and take action towards it.!! in this I’m talking about why the world of traditional media and marketing has changed and why learning branding / personal branding / relevant media is so important and how you can go about it. more resources are on my page in my bio if we can ever help you as either an individual or a business in this world :)
Unfortunately when you look at LinkedIn most stories show that Creatives are under-employed

As a recruiter/ talent consultant, everyone client of mine (tech start ups) are asking me if they should scale out their content teams. Bringing on content creators, influencer partnerships, and performance marketers. It’s a massive need

Agencies are so fragmented, people realize you don’t need 50 people working on a single account. There’s tons of smaller shops that are now doing the work

This is so true. People will pay top dollar for your creative vision especially if it’s unique and catchy.

For someone working for someone else in content creation, what would you recommend doing to stand out from the rest? Things are extremely extremely saturated and platforms are becoming pay to play.

Yep, this is why brand strategists are so important. They figure out the nuance between what the Brand POV should be, and how it gets applied through media. Even tech, an industry that has famously not valued brand in the past, is now conveniently looking for "storytellers". It's because they understand that their AI solution is not different, and the only part that becomes ownable is the brand.

I did a creative degree in 2015, back when marketing and communication wasn't as big then and I use to feel insecure when people around me were to more academic subjects. Now I'm glad I stuck to what I enjoyed instead of any degree that sounds good by name.

Creativity is something AI cannot do. We still need people behind prompts with ideas 🔥

Guys, one thing: as always this will be another cycle just like the one with IT guys. Don’t ever get complacent and don’t ever get too cocky. If we as a community want to stretch this as long as possible we must all work in a similar collective. And I believe the number one principle is to always be humble.

I think it’s the best time to be freelance as a graphic designer. So many companies are making layoffs but then still need support just not permanently
