after 11 years working in product design, this might honestly be my last month in the industry. i didn’t want to write a post like this, but the last 6 months have been extremely difficult both financially and mentally. i lost clients to AI. potential freelance leads ghosted me. a client scammed me out of $6,000 and mocked my work afterward. i spent months building an app for Apple, and just when things started going well, my developer account was terminated after a small mistake and a complaint. the revenue inside the account was locked as well. despite all of this, i didn’t stop working. i kept learning, building, experimenting with AI products, coding, motion, and trying to adapt to where the industry is heading. but the reality is: i haven’t been able to secure a new client for months. if i can’t find a new opportunity within the next couple of weeks, i may have to leave the design industry entirely and start over in a different field. so if you know anyone hiring for product design, AI product work, creative direction, or vibe coding related roles, i’d genuinely appreciate a referral or even just a repost. thank you for reading 🤍

Adrian@adriankuleszo·
Meet the new @designme This redesign has been on the backlog forever. Client work always came first, the team was busy, and our own site kept getting pushed to “later”. So I finally sat down and built it myself. Took 4 weeks and roughly 300 hours. But it’s finally live. The old site did the job, but it didn’t really show what DesignMe has become. The new site has 41 pages, 8 articles, deeper case studies, clearer services, and a much better foundation for where we’re going next. Really proud of the team and how far we've come. No more single landing pages and sticky sidebars. And this is just the beginning ↓

@joshpuckett @jameygannon This is exactly what we needed and the onboarding is so cool! I might be stupid but how can we change the preview text for all the fonts at once?

Most subscription billing reminder emails cause unnecessary churn. Here's an example that does it right:

Most agencies take 4-5 weeks to deliver a landing page. We ship ours in 48 hours. And they convert at 7.8%. We built an AI-powered system using @claudeai Opus 4.6 + @framer that handles everything: copy, structure, design specs in a single sprint. We packaged the entire playbook into a free Notion doc. Comment "LANDING" + follow and I'll DM it to you.

I’ve been in Dubai for 2mo setting up a new business. Here’s my pros/cons ↓ (+set-up advice) Pros: - Continuous sunshine, glorious weather Nov-Mar - World-class facilities & high standard of service across the board - Positive change & adaptation can be expected from the leaders (vs sabotaging their own population) - A hub for entrepreneurialism & events - The obvious: 0% income tax, 0% corporate tax <~$800k/yr (9% above, super reasonable) Cons: - Heavily polluted: Primary reason I couldn’t live here/raise kids - Lack of nature & wholesome things to do is crippling - Revolving door of people coming/going, tough to create stable community - The level of control is concerning, I can’t even open my apartment door without an app on my phone (mandatory in my building) - Noise & construction is relentless Set-up options I found: **speak to financial advisor, mine’s in the next post - Incorporate a business (spending at least 1 day/6mo) for 0% corporate tax below ~$800k (9% above) - Explore the 90 day + connection (business/salary) test for tax residency if you’ve cut ties to your home country - Commit to 6mo/yr in periods of expected asymmetrical growth (esp. if above test doesn’t suit) - Consider separate operating business which the UAE business owns in globally accepted currency w/ high trust I’ve shared my contact for set-up in the next post ↓ P.s. The comments under @averyx99’s post about slavery are totally off the mark. For many from India, Pakistan, Philippines, etc. this is the land of opportunity & they’re stoked to be here. (Even if they take tougher jobs)

Dubai is the best city to live in as an entrepreneur - Zero income tax (instantly 30-50% richer than London/NYC) - 4-hour flight to both Europe and Asia - Everyone speaks English - November to April weather is absolutely perfect (just use your tax savings to travel from May through October) - World's safest major city (only Singapore might second that) - Billionaire beach clubs + desert adventures in one place - Your maid, driver, and chef cost less than Western groceries - International crowd means less political correctness, more real conversation - A/C everywhere, 24/7 - Divorce laws actually protect successful men - Entrepreneurial community - Clean everywhere - Everyone's ambitions are on the table - no pretending money doesn't matter - You just bump into other hustlers - Property yields still crushing Western markets - Every cuisine at Michelin level, delivered in 20 mins I grew up in India, moved to Italy in my teens, then Sweden age 18 -- while traveling all across the world. The quality of life in Dubai is one of the best i’ve experienced p.s. I rented the royal palace in abu dhabi during f1 week. hmu if you think you should skip the waitlist and get an invite
