Components of a strong case study, WOW factor, & scaling relationships | Episode 2

Episode 2

Pascal Potvin (@loves_pixels) and Mitchell Bernstein (@mitchbernstein) discuss more of how they want to modify their course based on student feedback, some obstacles we find new designers trip over, how we plan to scale some of our efforts, more on AI (promise we will try not to discuss it much more), and how we are trying to scale our designer relationships. We wrap up by running through 2 websites, a landing page and a portfolio, that both work great for telling a story to sell their product (aka a course or themselves). Hang in there with us as each episode audio and video gets better!

Farza’s tweet we discuss:

Farza 🇺🇸 🇵🇰 @FarzaTV

Crazy to me when people don't pursue a good idea they had b/c "it already exists" when they Google it. Homie -- it doesn't matter. There is no such thing as a unique idea. It's your execution that's unique that causes your version of the idea to feel different from others.
