The customer problem/pain points

As a designer looking for a job, I found it difficult to browse through the various job offering sites. The risk is to waste time and energy in the job search.

My goals/proposed solution

  • Unifying the flow of job offers in one place
  • Being able to divide them by type or by precise keywords
  • Save them in your profile for tracking
  • Subscribe for a newsletter
  • Adding free content for designers (freebies)

Design Process

Brand identity creation:
I thought that having this kind of content could make every designer feel at home, in his or her own empire. That is why I called the project 'Design Empire'.
The logotype I created recalls a pen (a drawing tool) on the one hand and a torch (a recurring symbol in the Middle Ages, a time of empires) on the other.
 
Other steps:
  • Created a dedicated e-mail address
  • Got a free domain
      • www.designempire.rf.gd
  • Set up no-code tool 'Newsy' for site structure
  • Opened Twitter and Telegram channel (@Designempir3)
      • Twitter channel preview
  • Set up no-code tool Pipedream for self-publication of each post (new job offer) on both social channels.

Tools

  • Newsy.co
  • Pipedream.com
  • Dvlr.it
  • Google Analytics

Results

In the first 30 days I reached 50 Followers on Twitter and an average of 15-20 visitors per day to the site.
IMPORTANT: The entire project costs 0.00 € per month
