Increasing Your Value

You Want To Increase Your Value As A Designer

Perhaps you’re well educated. Maybe you’re self-taught; but either way, we find ourselves keeping up with the latest design trends and technological updates. In our ever-changing world it’s difficult to keep up with the latest design news.

We Often Spend A Lot of Time Finding Resources

I don’t know how many times I’m looking for answers to a design problem, and I casually browse my inbox to see the perfect article title about data visualization, color theory or whatever topic is on hand. That’s the value in newsletters. We also receive a lot of e-mail spam. Because of this, I dedicate a time block every week to read the best of the best from this curated list and unsubscribe if marketing spam starts overtaking things.
