Seeing more and more joint "Designer/Copywriter" roles. Granted, it's usually on those garbage job aggregator sites. But still. Come on! To be clear, this is *one position for a single employee*.

There will be a lot more garbage made before everyone realizes that creating a lot of fast garbage at as low a cost as possible is the equivalent of crack for brands.

It’s fast, clients get instant gratification (reporting). They keep doing it and it feels good. But most are ignoring the substance that will keep their brand alive in the long term.

Well, I’ve actually seen a couple who’s a CD and a Client consultant and they source out stuff with freelancers but they pay decent rates because the go after fat clients and have very low overhead since it’s not an agency. It’s actually a great model for a scalable agency that has a quiver of freelancers they can reach out to.

Here's another 2-in1 job post...for "$18-$23/hr". What is going on out there
