Designers Are Googling Each Other’s Clients? | Community Reaction Episode
Description
In this episode, I’m doing something a little different.
Recently, I sent out a newsletter about how I noticed designers Googling each other’s clients to “check if the projects are real.” I didn’t expect much. But then… my inbox exploded.
Turns out, people have thoughts. Some agreed with me. Some challenged me. So in today’s episode, I’m reading out a bunch of those anonymous replies and reacting to each one with my honest take.
We’re talking:
Whether designers should disclose passion projects
Why people get weird about “fake clients”
The pressure to look busy online
Real vs. passion work and does it even matter?
If you’ve ever hesitated to share a mock project or worried you’d be seen as “less than” for doing passion work, this one's for you
