1 marketing habit that brought me clients (even when my design wasn’t good)
From 2016 to 2019, I wasn’t a strong designer.
Most of my work looked average. And I knew it.
But I shared it anyway.
Every day, I posted whatever I designed. No polishing. No fear.
People commented. Some were negetive, some were inspirational.
I read everything and improved little by little.
That habit changed my career.
Not a perfect portfolio.
Not a big audience.
Just showing what I was learning openly.
Alhamdulillah, that simple habit opened every door for me.
And it’s the same habit that helped me build Panze - UX Design Studio.
If you’re starting out, start sharing.
Not when you’re “ready.”
Start with what you have.

Powerful insight! 🌟 Shows that consistent marketing efforts can attract clients even without perfect design. Building visibility and trust often matters more than flawless visuals. 🚀💼
love this. people underestimate how far consistency and public learning can take you. most clients don’t hire the best designer they hire the one they’ve seen grow, ship, and show up. sharing your work daily builds trust way before your portfolio does. great reminder.
“Love this! Consistency in marketing often outweighs perfection. Showing up regularly, sharing your process, and engaging with your audience can attract clients even if your design or work isn’t flawless.”
This is so real. Showing your work daily builds skills, confidence and opportunities faster than waiting to be “ready.
Exactly, people are waiting for your content, until they saw it you are nothing 😉
Very nice, strategy. I want to apply it too.
Do it from now, don't wait for perfect time or perfect day 🤨
