Can someone please offer portfolio advice? I am trying to land my first job and could really use any help or feedback! 🥺

I’m an early startup having raised a bit of money from family and friends to help grow my business. Time is moving fast and I’m potties I won’t hit my targets and being the return back to those who invested.
Once I have used the money that’s been invested there’s no way of seeing it again and still bringing the return quick enough.

The numbers still show it’s possible, I still believe in the concept and I’m still growing, I think I just have some imposter syndrome.

Any advice?

Trying to refresh my portfolio and thinking about switching to a different platform, what are my fellow copywriters’ fave sites to use?? I’m currently using wix since it’s free, but it’s given me many headaches trying to get it how I want my portfolio to look. I’m also looking into Copyfolio as well.

Can anyone provide feedback on my portfolio?

Anyone have experience setting up more in-depth analytics for portfolio websites? Any ways to get more information about who is looking at my book? I'm on squarespace. Cheers!

Hi there—have an interview this Friday and it’s been a while since I’ve had one in person. What’s standard these days? Is it expected to have a trimmed down deck with your work or is it okay to walk through your site? Thanks in advance!

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”

So here's the deal: I've been in the industry for 8 years now—and I still feel my best work is my spec work. Is there a point at which it's simply no longer appropriate to show spec work in a book?

Hi! Any art directors or creative directors open to giving some feedback via DM on my portfolio? I have mostly in-house experience, and could use guidance on what I might do to get in with agency work and more branding.

POV: you're an AD* looking for a copy (me) to build our portfolio together and work in... London?

DM:
1) if your seniority is mid/senior or you won an award (Lions, D&AD, One Show..)
2) 3 fav Cannes Lions 2022 campaigns*
3) 3 creatives you love
We create 3 campaigns before XMas and maybe in 2023 we'll start dream big!
Let's make 3 our magic number

* I ask just because if your work is focused on editorial design, that is a different field. I wish you like strategic thinking. Thank you, bye!
