Edward Sturm
About this episode

E303: I reflect on my experiences working with various talented designers, highlighting Alexander Vilinskyy as the designer who has the cleanest style.

Vilinskyy, a former Head of Design at Grammarly, does many well-performing projects and often hangs out with high-net-worth individuals.

He recently successfully leveraged a small Instagram following to sell a networking course, demonstrating the efficacy of well-crafted design and targeted content.

I also share insights on the simplicity and impact of regular content creation on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, emphasizing consistency and the sharing of one's work and learnings.

Furthermore, the concept of the 'curious learner bias' and the importance of exponential growth in learning and audience building are discussed.

This episode offers advice and motivation for content creators at any level to start leveraging their knowledge and interests to build a monetizable audience and create impactful content daily.
