unsold.design partnership.png

Hey people, I ll try to be short.

There is unlaunched side project of mine called Unsold.Design which is a digital marketplace for unique logos and illustrations. The designs are premium sold only once.

I spent 3-4 hardcore weeks of building it, with few hundred dollars investment. That is not important much.

What is important is that I am looking for collaborator or partner who wanna lead, work, communicate trough this project.

I have network of more then half of million followers on Instagram in design niche which mean I have influence there. Over the last few years i worked, promoted, featured hundreds of designers, which mean designers will mostly be interested in joining this project, since they already have trust.

Anyway, this project have huge opportunity since there is no much competitions in this space, and we can get to work with really great designers and sell their work. I don't have time to manage this project, because I am already focusing on two main projects Automatio.co and UXstore.com, so I can't manage to work on it solo, but I can help with the plan, strategy, influence, resource, growth.

Basically, I have everything its need for this project except man power. I need someone who wanna work on this project as a partner and grow it together by providing hard & smart work.

If you are that guy, replay here why you think it would be great fit.

Forgot to mention, that collaborator does not need to be developer or designer. You skill set is not much important, as long as you want to learn, thrive and move this project forward.

However, knowing some basics of design or least having sense for design, web tech (WordPress) or Growth Hacking is always a bonus.

      Hey @kinderminder. I'd love to work on this project with you, but I'd love to know exactly what kind of help you need?

        Site is basically ready for launch. It have everything its need, few designers, some pending logos, bit of content like submission guide etc. Payments are connected, so someone can already buy some design.

        There are some things should be done before we start pushing a message about Unsold Design, and grow it. Like some more content pages, for example landing page for Designers, with content/story why should join and start selling.

        I have Trello board, didnt update for a while so it's easy to get organized and see what it should be done.

        trello

        And that is just beginning, cause we can grow it using many different strategies

                            Hey peeps ๐Ÿ–, thank you all for writing me here. I am glad to see people are interested in this project.

                            I have been AFK in last few days, that's why u get delayed response from me.

                            I am already in talk with @joshwcorbett and think he will be the part of the unsold design. But I think we should get 1 more or even 2 people. It would be more fun, easier and better.

                            @plavookac told me this once this:

                            "If you wanna go fast, go alone, if you wanna go far go together"

                            I love it, and its motivate me to work, share, join more with people.

                            Since everybody occupied with something (school, job, freelancing, studies) this side project can become really good investment of our time, over time.

                            I gonna prepare whats should be done next and identify the people and skill needed for the project.

                            I will reach you personally to learn more about you if I think your profile match / align with unsold design.

                            Thank you again all @joshwcorbett @dhingrayash001 @parishrut @arpita-dhir @vedant @shivram @littlefeather @johnny369

                                    I'm currently working as a freelance graphic designer & developer. I would definitely like to join a great and experienced team in the future but for now, I'm a lone wolf that hungry to grow with the right people. I'm available every day (most of the day) except Fridays and Saturdays (can do if it's urgent for a deadline).

                                        Back to the topic. Whats ur strongest 2 skills? And how you think can benefit the Unsold Design?

                                            Perce, I think your Elementor and html/css skills can help significantly. You see, its always good to learn something new ๐Ÿ‘. Unsold will need some LP designed and builded in Elementor

                                                    I'm great at many things and there are still many things I'd like to learn and improve over time so I can be even more productive and a better team player. I can help Unsold Design by (1) creating clean and unique landing pages from scratch using prototyping/wireframing, design and development tools and technologies. (Sketch App, HTML, CSS mostly for this kind of process). (2) Can do the same kind of job using WordPress CMS / Elementor. I also create short motion graphics (but I still got to learn more to achieve my goals). There are lots of other things I can do such as brand identity, monetization design, social design and so on, so keep it in mind :P CAN DO attribute is in my blood haha, I'm thirsty to learn every-day, everything! Thanks for your quick replies Stefan :)
