That’s why we should disregard the merit of awards. It’s beyond Cannes. One Show, Clio and several others are just as fake. Next time we see them in someone’s book, we should bear in mind that the trophies are simply paid and bought. They are invalid. So skip them and move on to the work.

There are those who hire just by finding out if the candidate is “award-winning”, this is about telling them to stop doing that. When evaluating the work, a capable hirer should be able to tell if the work is real or fake. If it is hard to tell. Google them. It is also a conversation to make with the candidate.

Hey everyone!
I'd love to get your feedback on our subscription marketing service.

My partner and I created a cost-effective subscription so small / medium-sized businesses could focus more on running their business and strategies without the need to hire in-house, manage multiple freelancers, or fight with agencies.

We do this with a proprietary Workspace so marketing managers can delegate projects, connect with our team, and download completed work / files.

What are your initial thoughts?

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out.

Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
