@Garrath_R Haha. Wasn't talking about THAT platform, but good thing you did. Wait until you hear about the sheer volume of videos I'll be posting there soon.

I create lots of video and solid gold value every day for anyone building their small business. If you'd like to actually see that, you can find it on that "cringe" platform that actually shows people your content. No one else has my name. Search for that and we'll connect.

AI replies are now baked into X. I don't think people realize just how much this will change this place. And, no, I'm not going to explain why. If you get it, you know what I'm talking about. If you don't, it doesn't matter what I say. You'll have to see for yourself.

@sweatystartup Borderline feel bad for the SO dangerous crowd. My dad did this with me on back roads and sparse two lane highways.

@torreydawley Clients take our work and submit it for awards themselves. That's probably the real win for awards if there's one to be had. If I gotta pay for it, I don't want it.

Let it be known that I hate vanity metrics well beyond social media.

@torreydawley People will desperately cling to anything they can to keep afloat while drowning in their own delusion.

Wild to see the Left attack someone for saying that a warmonger should have to know what it feels like to serve on the front lines of the wars they so happily work to wage from the comforts of their elite positions. How much blood is the Cheney balance sheet worth to you?

@JoshWComeau @kevvrites They feel the exact same way about people who make your arguments, and you're not necessarily any more qualified than they are to come to the conclusion you're coming to.

You know, HTML, CSS and JavaScript are enough to build a website. Why did we have to add everything else??? 👀

Just a reminder that big clients would love to work with you if you would simply stop assuming they prefer to work with big agencies.

@torreydawley I initially read that as "a nude receptionist". Probably time to go to the eye doctor.

Want to understand Brand? It's simple. Do any of these damage a Brand? • A rude receptionist • A product that fails • A CEO scandal Did you answer "Yes"? Congratulations. You're sophisticated enough to understand that Brand ≠ logos, colors, and typography.

@calebsylvest @Joshua_Ariza Nice, but it's still wrong. The reward isn't 0 when they choose an agency, because nobody who 'wants this' is signing a contract where the ROI is break-even with the cost, especially not at these numbers.

@Melanie_Balke Always the bad guy, and yet you're not wrong at all. And you're getting heat in these replies, and yet you're still not wrong. People like to caricature businesses as the worst stories they've read on Reddit and act like all of them are like that. I've only worked at good ones.

@torreydawley I don't even think I have a skill I could deliver for $1k. Maybe if it were words only.

If you're new to a Professional Service—design, copywriting, photography, developer, etc.... You're MUCH better off Freelancing under established companies who provide this work to their clients. It's a mistake to waste your time with $1K bottom-feeder clients.

@dickiebush Are you writing on paper? Are you writing straight from the dome? Or do you ever use external material for synthesis?
