I’m your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today I’m joined by the one and only Jonathan Morin, better known in the Webflow world as Jo Mor. Joe is a standout designer and developer, whose work beautifully blends storytelling, sharp design, and smooth development into something truly unique. I first met Joe at Webflow Conf in London, where we had a memorable moment—twerking together while Melissa Mendez filmed us. Beyond the moves, Joe is an award-winning designer with a knack for combining aesthetic brilliance and technical precision. His site, jomor.design , is a testament to his skills and the waves he’s making in the design world. And if you’ve seen his hilarious talk at Webflow Conf, you already know his energy is unmatched. But today, we’re not just here to admire Joe’s successes. We’re diving into the trials and lessons that have shaped his journey. In this episode, we’ll explore: Prioritizing money over meaningful work and its hidden costs. Selling a service he couldn’t deliver—and the weekend he won’t forget. Battling negative self-talk and the quest for self-compassion. This is going to be an honest, raw, and insightful conversation packed with lessons for anyone navigating the creative industry. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction 01:52 Discussing Failure and Personal Growth 06:05 Insights on Design and Development 11:01 Advice for Aspiring Web Designers 26:57 Balancing Work and Personal Life 40:39 A Challenging Project 45:01 The Weekend Nightmare 47:06 Lessons Learned from Failure 49:19 The Importance of Transparency 55:06 Balancing Ambition and Self-Compassion WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR JO 💻 See Website: https://www.jomor.design/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/iamjomor/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
I’m your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today we’ve got a special double-bill episode with the brilliant duo, Camille Di Vincenzo & Ellina Chhay. These two are powerhouse no-code and low-code experts who bring years of experience in Webflow and beyond, helping to build a better internet together. I first heard about Camille and Ellina through Théo Roland from the French Webflow community, who insisted I invite them on Webflail. And wow, am I glad I did! Both of them have extensive knowledge not just in the Webflow ecosystem but across various tools that make the no-code space so vibrant. Together, they’ve also been fostering an amazing sense of community through initiatives like Webflow Co-living , where professionals gather in inspiring locations to connect, collaborate, and grow. From board game nights to quizzes, these retreats are redefining the way Webflow enthusiasts bond and learn from each other. In this episode, we’ll dig into six failures—three from each of these incredible guests. These failures include: For Ellina: Not qualifying prospects and accepting all calls without distinction. Underpricing her services and struggling to value her work. Accepting too many clients and underestimating project deadlines. And for Camille: Failing to set boundaries with customers and friends. Avoiding complicated projects that could push her to grow. Hesitating to ask questions in the Webflow community out of fear of judgment. These two have a wealth of insights to share about failure, resilience, and how to keep leveling up in this industry. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, you’re going to learn so much from this conversation. 00:00 Introduction and Personal Journey 00:27 Meet the Guests: Alina and Camille 01:32 Failures and Lessons Learned 03:25 The Importance of Networking 07:29 Co-living and Community Building 24:06 Balancing Rates and Workload 26:31 Respecting Boundaries with Clients 29:42 Pricing Structures and Client Communication 33:05 Overcoming Fear of Complex Projects 41:00 Embracing Failure and Community Support WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR CAMILLE & ELLINA 💻 See Website: https://www.camilledivincenzo.com/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/camille-di-vincenzo/ 💻 See Website: https://nocodesecrets.substack.com/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ellina-chhay-%E9%99%88%E5%A8%9C-automatisation-nocode-ia/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...

I’ve been following Lily’s work on LinkedIn and couldn’t resist inviting her on Webflail before she becomes so famous that my emails start getting ignored! Of course, her success didn’t happen overnight. As you know, the creative journey often involves a lot of trial, error, and resilience. In this episode, Lily will share insights from her experiences, including: Starting a business at just 15 years old. Navigating the highs and lows of digital nomad life.

Hello and welcome to episode 110 of Webflail. I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today my guest is Zena Potter. Since 2022, she's been working as a freelance web designer and Webflow developer. She creates websites that attract, engage, and convert your target audience. But basically, she works with All sorts of different clients. She's worked with FinTech clients. She's worked with physiotherapy clients. She's done a lot of different websites in different industries before freelancing. She's worked in project management and PA consulting. So I think what's interesting about her is that she knows the client process really well, which I think a lot of web flows actually don't know as well as they need to. We'll talk a little bit about that in this episode. Another thing that we'll talk about is. Xena's approach to marketing herself as a freelancer. Alongside showing her work, she also shows behind the scenes like hiking, brunch, talking about things broader than just Webflow. So interesting to note there at the start of this episode too. But has it all been easy breezy for Zena? Of course not. The failures that we'll talk about today are: 1) Not LinkedIn/networking 2) Undercharging in cases where she could have charged more but lack the confidence 3) Not establishing a routine as a freelancer 00:00 Introduction and Initial Struggles 00:28 Meet the Guest: Zena Potter 01:37 Discussing Failures and Challenges 04:58 Networking and Overcoming Isolation 12:21 Project Management Skills in Freelancing 16:12 Learning and Transitioning to Web Design 17:46 Getting Clients and Marketing Strategies 22:32 Importance of LinkedIn and Networking 26:29 Building Connections as a Freelancer 27:20 The Importance of LinkedIn Marketing 28:23 Being Authentic Online 29:29 Consistency and Engagement on Social Media 31:58 The Slow Process of Gaining Clients 35:23 The Struggle with Pricing 39:00 Learning to Charge What You're Worth 46:23 Balancing Fun and Financial Goals 49:30 Establishing a Routine as a Freelancer 53:56 Future Challenges and Boundaries WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR ZENA 💻 See Website: https://www.zenadesigns.co.uk/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zena-potter/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
Hello and welcome to Episode 109 of Webflail ! I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur. Today, we have the multi-talented Bimo Tri joining us from Jakarta, Indonesia. Bimo is the founder of Studio BAMOJ, where he combines cutting-edge design with Webflow development to craft stunning web experiences across diverse industries, from luxury brands to NFTs. Check out his work at BAMOJ—that's B-A-M-O-J dot com . The site is incredible, showcasing top-tier work. I first came across BMO’s work on Twitter, or as it's now called, "X," where he shared some remarkable projects. His ability to blend Webflow with GSAP animations is something you don’t see often in the Webflow space. Bimo is an Awwwards judge, a professional Webflow partner, and a pioneer in pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with Webflow and GSAP. But today’s episode isn’t just about his awards and amazing projects—it’s also about his journey through failure to reach this level of success. We’ll dive into some of Bimo's challenges, including: Failing with his first online dropshipping business, Struggling to recognize client red flags and learning it’s okay to demand respect, and Understanding that freelancing or running a studio is still a business, even as a solo founder. 00:00 Introduction to Freelancing as a Business 00:28 Meet Bimo Tree: A Webflow Innovator 01:39 Embracing Failure: Bimo's Journey 02:47 The Freelancing Grind: Lessons Learned 09:40 Building BAMOJ: From Solo to Studio 15:33 Client Work: Strategies and Processes 26:03 Early Failures: Dropshipping Woes 31:32 Affiliate Marketing and SEO Adventures 35:16 Mastering GSAP: Inspirations and Advice 38:24 Client Revisions and Realizations 39:23 The Importance of Contracts 40:28 Setting Boundaries with Clients 41:15 Balancing Quality and Scope 41:38 Learning to Say No 48:45 Understanding Freelancing as a Business 51:28 Financial Planning for Freelancers 54:01 Different Freelancing Approaches 59:15 Comparing Yourself to Others 01:01:05 Final Thoughts and Reflections WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR BIMO 💻 See Website: https://www.bamoj.com/ X: https://x.com/bamojk 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bamoj/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...

She is a freelance illustrator and visual identity designer that goes under the name of SaltyStill. Combining her skillsets with her Webflower boyfriend, Alex Villacres, the two are killing it! I came across her since she's been doing this daily challenge. Her daily challenges got her loads and loads of conversations started about her work. She started on Fiverr and now, she's worked with over a thousand clients on things like storefronts, websites, packaging, maybe even your nighttime read. But get this guys, she's working with small companies helping them transform their dreams into reality through effective marketing.

Hello and welcome to episode 107 of Webflail. I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today I am joined by none other than Tolu Abolarin. This guy came up to me at FlowFest in Manchester. He was a little nervous and said, "Hey Jack, I listen to the podcast, I'm a big fan." I was like, "Oh my God, someone listens to the Webflail podcast! I appreciate you, thanks so much!" We stayed in contact, and he recently reached out and said, "Hey Jack, would you mind if I came on and shared my story?" He's got a killer story, as you're about to find out today, so I'm very glad to have him on. Tolu moved to Birmingham from Nigeria last year. He now works at Greater Studio, based in New York, freelancing for them while also doing his own freelance projects. He's got a killer portfolio, so definitely check that out: ToluMEN.com—that's T-O-L-U-M-E-N.com. His portfolio is beautiful. He does both design and development, and he's really starting to make waves. But has it always been easy? Of course not. The three failures we'll be discussing today are: 1) Chasing money over quality and not niching down 2) Not networking enough 3) Working for a startup without a formal agreement—or not getting paid.

Hey, I'm Jack, your failure connoisseur and today, I'm interviewing myself. My guest dropped out last minute, so I'm afraid I am going to be doing episode 106 of Webflail, which is a bit narcissistic. But I wanted to get an episode out there, and I've basically been asked a few times how freelancing is going. It's going okay... But the failures that I want to talk about today are: 1. Setting up an emergency fund before quitting your job to go freelancing 2. Cash flow 3. Working with friends versus showing the work you want to get Hopefully this is helpful for anyone that's been asking me how freelancing is going and I've been like, yeah, it's going great. 00:00 Introduction: My Freelancing Journey Begins 01:30 Freelancing Financials: The Ups and Downs 03:20 Finding My Niche in the Webflow Space 07:45 The Importance of an Emergency Fund 12:28 Cash Flow Challenges and Solutions 20:54 Working with Friends: Lessons Learned 28:53 Networking and Building Client Relationships 32:51 Conclusion: Reflecting on My Freelancing Experience WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR JACK 💻 See Website: https://www.jackredley.design/ X: https://x.com/JackRedley1 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackredley/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
Welcome to episode 105 of Webflail and I am joined by the almighty Luke Netti! Now you've probably seen Luke floating around on the Twittersphere, but if you haven't, Luke does a lot. Websites for businesses that are looking to scale. He does brand messaging, websites, and sales funnels that help businesses grow. So note web flow is at the start of this episode. He is not just making flowery animations. He is trying to focus in as a web flower that's focused on business results. So we'll talk a little bit about that during this episode. We actually met quite recently, uh, online because, um, there's client stuff that Luke is transitioning from and transitioning to. We were talking about supporting him on that, which we might touch on during this episode, but. Although he's flying high, although he's a successful freelancer, and frankly, he's just killing it in the game. There have been some failures along the way: 1) Not focusing on relationships early enough in his career 2) Trying to systematize and scale too early 3) Raising his prices too quickly and not doing so gradually.

Hello and welcome to episode 104 of Webflail. I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today my guest is Manuel Ogomigo. He’s an impressive dude 5 months ago, he quit his stable UX job to dive into the wild world of freelancing and building products in public. After 4 years, he quit. And he launched Flowdrive. In his own words, crickets. But now, things are moving. Did you know he has built 8 other products before this?! He’s a Webflow and memberstack expert and he’s got a smile as big as the Niger Delta. Has it always been easy for Manuel? Or has it been a real struggle with some massive failures along the way? You be the judge. The failures that we’ll discuss are: While working in design, not doing enough research results in failed product and layoff :) Not doing marketing enough Almost destroying flowdrive, clearing all assets with a silly mistake BRAND BOOK (FREE CLONEABLE) Incredible resource from 473 Agency: https://webflow.com/made-in-webflow/website/brandiv-473 WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR MANUEL 💻 See Website: https://www.manuelogomigo.com/ X: https://x.com/manuelogomigo 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/manuelogomigo/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
Hello and welcome to episode 103 of Webflail. I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today my guest is Theo Roland Theo is a man you have no doubt come across on your escapades in the world of Webflow but just in case you haven’t, he’s leading the charge in the Francophone Webflow community. What does Francophone mean? It means french speaking. He’s french and runs InitWeb, which includes a frenchspeaking Webflow community, InitClub (1043 people in the slack), as well as bootcamps, self-paced courses and other resources. Before this, he was a freelancer that taught people online. On YouTube, he has 1.43K subscribers•114 videos So, he’s a Webflow Expert & Global Community Leader, but has it always been this way? Has it always been as dreamy as a float down the river seine with a bottle of vin rouge? NO! The failures that we will talk about today are: The failure of launching a studio alongside early-stage training. Unable to scale quickly enough -> Abandonment of this premature project in 2021, project revival in 2024. The failure in emotionally managing all the help requests from the Francophone Webflow Community Slack. Unable to respond to everyone -> Acceptance of the need to allow others to respond and understanding how to sustain a community independently. The failure to properly understand the content expected by the Community and the Learners of the training. Better tracking of needs and gamification to encourage completion. -> Fewer basic questions, more technical questions, easier content creation.

Hello and welcome to episode 102 of Webflail. I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today my guest is Nikolai Bain. This man isn't just slicked back hair and a glorious moustache. He's also a formidable Webflower. He’s currently focussing on growth tactics In his own words, he builds thoughtful websites for businesses that are about to launch, in need of a refresh, or ready to scale More Nikolai facts: 49 templates in the Webflow template library Worked with clients in industries such as carbon footprinting technology, data analytics and digital advertising 5.81K followers on the YT 76 videos recorded and published So, he’s in his twenties, his consistent YT publishing, his dry sense of kiwi humour have helped him fly like Icarus but has he flown too close to the sun sometimes. Like Icarus... Turns out he is fallible. He does fail sometimes. The failures that we’ll discuss today are: Side project failure: https://www.localfinds.co.uk/ - a client generation failure Work failure: working with an agency that is a bad fit and not getting paid Freelancing failure: failing to pick a video content niche and therefore getting too many different types of projects requests WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR NIKOLAI 💻 See Website: https://www.nikolaibain.com/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nikolai-bain/ 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NikolaiBain 🐦 IG: https://www.instagram.com/nikolai_bain/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
Hello and welcome to episode 101 of Webflail. I'm your host, Jack, your failure connoisseur, and today my guest is Stephanie Bruce. She’s a digital Designer and Framer/Webflow Developer that worked on OFF GRID & 10X Conference websites. She has got a great eye for design - you know when you look at premium work and just go GODDAMN. That’s how I feel whenever I see posts from Stephanie on social of beautiful mock ups and renders. Speaking of renders, she’s also doing a lot more 3D work too recently being involved in the FlowParty course so excited to chat to her about that and more She’s freelancing like a boss. BUT HAS IT BEEN EASY? The fails we’ll talk about in today’s episode are: 1. Poor time underestimating 2. Not appreciating the importance of networking and sharing work 3. Feeling the pressure to keep up with design trends WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR STEPHANIE 💻 See Website: https://stephaniebruce.co/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-bruce-aba19376/ 🐦 X: https://x.com/stefbrucedesign TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
So, for the 100th episode, I decided to get the big guns in, fly to SF and do this bad boy in person with the CEO (at the time) and co-founder of Webflow, Vlad Magdalin. Vlad came to US as a refugee with his parents from Russia. He learnt graphic design almost by accident when he worked with his entrepreneurial dad asked him to convert catalogues from english to Russian. This lead to a job with a company called Russian American media → deepened his interest in graphics and then 3D animation. At college, he studied computer science but dropped out to go to the academy of art in San Francisco. The technical aspect of sophisticated 3D and animation tools and feeling like he was getting superpowers really interested Vlad. He dropped out of art school and got a job at a design agency. Why can’t web designers design stuff and hit publish to be live on the web just like 3D - render something and it’s live on the screen As you may have guessed, this spark was the catalyst for Webflow. Webflow now has over 200,000 users and is over $100 million annual revenue. And it was an easy ride with no failures whatsoever. No no no dear Webflailer… it wasn’t quite this easy. The failures that we’ll talk about today are: 1) Not valuing himself when he went back to freelancing – until a client rejected my invoice for $750 and said that to him the site is worth at least $5k 2) Stopping to work on Webflow in 2008 (for the 3rd time) when there was a trademark issue and I couldn’t use that name – combined with Weebly raising money 3) (Not sure if I can talk about this one publicly yet… noodling on it) Getting too caught up in the no-code hype and trying to do too much (e.g. Logic) before fully nailing the fundamentals (e.g. CMS) WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR TORY 💻 See Website: https://www.doorwaycreative.com/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/toryhowell/ TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
Today my guest is Tory Howell. She's a design leader with seven years experience in product design and marketing design for organizations that make the world a better place. Now, she has got extensive design experience. In fact, in 2014, she was a design editor as a student. And since then, she's had various different jobs as graphic design and then product design. 2 years ago, her and her co-founder, Triniti Burton, struck out on their own to create Doorway Creative with. These guys do strategies, brands, and websites for purpose driven organizations. They are on a mission to empower companies that are creating change for the world.

Today my guest is Vimalan Vijayskaran, the founder of ViDesigns. He's three years into his agency journey. He has successfully completed, along with his five -man team, over 200 Webflow projects, partnering with top global brands such as Red Bull, Tony Blair Institute, London Interdisciplinary School and loads of other people, obviously. Now in 2022, they expanded their horizons by venturing into product development. They have built to date six different products and they have over 25 ,000 active monthly users. These include Formly, FlowPlay, VDS, Chrome extension, FlowPilot, VDS Webflow extension and Bulk SEO. I'd be surprised if you guys hadn't used at least one of those in the last week alone. Interestingly, he's worked for Finsuite, Code and Wonder and Hans Springer Labs. This was all before he started his own studio. We'll get into that and much more in this episode. But of course, it's not all been smooth sailing. This kind of growth does not come with some growing pains. The fails that we talk about in today's episode are hiring the wrong people slash unable to delegate, failing to scope the project properly and set expectations and taking too long to understand that retainers aren't that bad. So, embrace and learn from failure in episode 98 of Webflail with Virmalam The fails we’ll talk about in today’s episode are: Hiring the wrong people / unable to delegate Failing to scope the project properly & set expectations Took too long to understand that retainers aren't that bad SAVVYCAL Schedule like a Webflow boss: https://bit.ly/3X32XUI BONSAI Streamline your client process: https://bit.ly/3V40ua6 WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR VIMALAN 💻 See Website: https://www.videsigns.uk/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/videsigns/ 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://x.com/vimalan_vijay TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
Today my guest is Chloe Daly. Designing, leading, marketing, SaaS products and high conversion websites is her thing. She is a killer UI UX designer. Her practice is focused on data informed human centered solutions containing various UI UX design and methodologies. Now, what's interesting about Chloe is she is doing not just her full time job, but she's also slowly doing her agency. So she's working full time as a product designer at Peak, which is based in Manchester and the UK and then she's doing a few projects outside of her job as well and slowly growing that. So as you're about to hear, she is on a roll. She's working with clients like Foot Locker by day and then her own freelance clients by night. But has it been easy? Of course not guys. You know the drill by now. Episode 97. You've heard me say this a few times already. The failures are: 1) Knowing if a project for you or not 2) Not knowing business skills earlier 3) Not getting contracts signed even with friends SAVVYCAL Schedule like a Webflow boss: https://bit.ly/3X32XUI BONSAI Streamline your client process: https://bit.ly/3V40ua6 WEBFLAIL FREEBIES 10 Step Process To Land Your First Webflow Clients: The Ultimate Guide: https://www.webflail.com/resources/10-step-process-to-land-your-first-webflow-clients-the-ultimate-guide LINKS FOR CHLOE 💻 See Website: https://www.chloedaly.com/ 🔗 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chloe-daly-644679175/ 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://x.com/Chloedalydesign TRY OUT WEBFLOW 🚀 https://webflow.grsm.io/webflail CONNECT WITH WEBFLAIL 📬 Subscribe to the newsletter: https://webflail.ck.page/8a5e37bca6 🐦 Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackRedley1 SAY THANKS 💜 Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 💜 Leave a rating on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5834...
