Let's go
"As that was not enough" 😂😂 Great episode Aye koma shoutout for hosting. Y'all the real MVPs
@@DODub265🤣🤣 shout-out to Mr. Splash for that one. Naaah but we appreciate you. Thank you for having us. What a time we had! We need more of those honestly.
eeeeeeh guys looking for another episode, Mr Graphic designers please gather around here and Mr Popping please.
@@chikondinamondwe719 🤣🤣 we got you. More coming soon.
Big up
😂Let me price the way I want as a beginner 😂
Brooo the tip about Powerpoints 🔥🔥🔥 There there are report designs aswell (suprisingly in Word even)
Another fire episode 🔥🔥🔥
W Pod
Another one!!!!!
“the bane of my existence” hahahaha
komano to find that middle ground where both you and the client are satisfied, its so hard bwanji, lol
Some of these takes feel personal 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@itsziquetv too detailed to be random. 😂
I have noticed how many revisions I avoid simply by explaining my design thought. I sometimes make the mistake of sending a design (for a new client) without explaining and usually get annoying changes. It is more work, tiring, but it saves me from looking like ndikupanga za agenest lol
Ndikamakuona pa IG i thought u r not malawian haha
You guys should consider having a marketer as a guest so we laymen can hear both sides to the story 😅😂😂😂
How about 2 marketers so we even out the playing field?🤣
Changing things just to show authority akuti "am a designer too in my head"🤣🤣🤣
Others literally tell you they were a designer in their past life so they know what they're talking about 😭😭😭
Something is wrong with the intro 😂😂, I could literally see the "Media offline" mark
🤣🤣 Thanks for letting us know. We'll fix it next time
It is a style 😅
@@itsziquetv I didn't know 😂, I just paid attention cause of the description which says " extra points to whoever notices something wrong with our intro"😂😂😂😂
@@blessingsminga986 😂😂😂😂
Loving this one soooo muchhh😂❤
We're glad you do 😅
CEOs changing material is like them actively stepping on the marketing/design's toes. coz the department usually has more knowledge & experience.
So everyone should stay in their own lane 🤣
Just came across this. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Relatable conversation. Keep going hard, brothers.
@@SalemMitambo thank you so much Salem. Glad you enjoyed the conversation
I won’t lie, most graphic designers are the worst communicators so they’d probably be horrible client service people. They don’t even reply to designer work phone calls please 😂😂😂😂
@@KhinoK_ 😂 designers really are known for that and it’s unfortunate. That’s why we need client service to communicate for us. We just have to carry out this exercise and find a culprit once and for all. 😂
hello my name is kamadzi lol
@@mcfarlanemlenga4136 hello, Kamadzi. Welcome to S&S Anonymous. Feel free to share with the group what you’re going through 🤣
mwala
We see ya 👌🏾
Crazy how i haven't gotten merch yet. Mad...
💀 merch on the way! (in Astro voice)
pricing is a very funny thing ndithu, but for the most part cheap pricing is meant to be used as a market penetration tool, ineyo for example am an illustrator and concept artist, ndimapanga charge motchipa back in the day, right now i think i have a base of clients i can charge what i think am worth, both ineyo and the client, will be satisfied , with the entire experience altogether. know your worth skillwise , know your clients
That’s a quote right there “know your worth, know your clients.” 🔥 It should settle most of this discourse on standardized pricing.
Its amazing to see the endless possibilities that are out there through your journey. Always inspired by you guys 🙌🔥
We’re so glad we’re able to inspire you. Thanks for always tuning in. 👌🏾
Inspiring stuff 🔥 and can't wait to get the merch!
Very soon! 🔥
I low-key teared up when I heard my name man, shout out guys. Really appreciate it
You’re remarkable, man. Rest assured people are noticing. And you’re welcome. Keep the good work coming!
nice colours selection on merch boys, need one here🔥
We appreciate that. Merch will be available for purchase this month, look out for that!
we want the Tee👕
We got you! Look out for the purchasing details on our socials.
Temi Coker is extremely talented 🔥
There is an attachment to a product when you get to see how it was made I think. I have loved movies that people hated only because I got to watch the Behind the Scenes and I admired the craftsmanship behind the final thing. But that is just me
There isn’t a product without the process. The process takes the W
Don't be yourself, create yourself. I like that!!!
Words to live by. 💪🏾
Crazy how the business world is pretty much the same when it comes to that one customer 😂😂😂 Great episode boys!!🔥🔥🫡
There’s always gotta be that one. 😂 thank you, Ms K. Phillips!
Another great conversation. Shout out to you guys! 👏 One thing i've learnt the hard way over the years is there is no virtue in trying to be the affordable option for a client.
True. You’d rather just work with people who are okay with your prices as is. More fulfilling. And thank you for always tuning in, fam.
Episode 20! 🔥🙌 Loved the conversation in this one. The potential to export creative work is massive right now. Another great episode from the GOATs yet again 🙇♂
We need to discuss how far we can go with customising logos according to the client cos some clients indeed have some crazy requests 🤣
Malawian "approved" Logos deserve their own case study 😂🤣🤣🤣
Simon decided to end it on a deep note with that quote. 😂😂Great episode guys!! 20 Episodes!!!🎉🎉🎉
You, maybe the saying is,”practice makes perfect”!😂
We’ve been practicing for a decade and we still aren’t perfect. See why we had to find another quote? 🤣
@@ShoppedandSkewed I get it!😂
Why do I relate to the stories from episode to episode 😅
Not sure if it’s a good thing that you’ve been in the trenches along with us. 🤣🤣 But we’re happy you can relate still.
Back to work after the holiday, and happy to see this drop as soon as I start working
Happy to provide the background noise to your workflow, Matt 🙂
It's like they use one graphic designer for all these logos 😂😂
It actually might be the same designer for all we know 😂 because wow.
on bullets logo atleast the slogan should have been replaced with football club down there
You’re onto something there, we didn’t notice. They kinda have bigger fish to fry though😅
5:06 Have to agree with you, no visual identity whatsoever even our cities nothing to represent us
18:51 Agreed, the SULOM should take charge of the league.
20:54 it's official and the merch they printed out is eh, saw them giving out a mug and a shirt to Thom Mpinganjira but eh words fail me. 😅
@@praisemizati6035 do you happen to have a picture of the merch? We want to see something. 👀😂
SULOM needs to do that asap. The league needs to be bigger than the sponsors, whoever it is in that moment.
@@ShoppedandSkewed sadly I don't have the pics, I was streaming the live ceremony on Zodiak it's there on their page I assume. The SULOM brand is big they just lack the vision no wonder the sponsors are coming in with ultimatums.
it's a lion and a leopard on the that court of arms
Guys the Bullets logo is crazy, dispite the guy kicking the ball thus already gone, have a look at that target icon in front of the ball😂😂😂
😂😂 There’s so much going on there, it’s crazy
Ana user Microsoft Word 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I enjoy every episode .. funny and articilate
