The “whopper by you” campaign is pretty smart. Good way for BK to assert themselves into the special meals game and a nice jab at McDonald’s. It probably won’t be as viral but it’s good nonetheless

I want to put together a XD file with a whole bunch of helpful web and app components for other designers to just drag and drop. 1. Is this a waste of time due to the market being saturated? 2. Where do I sell it? 3. Is there anything I need to know first?

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❤️
