Have been doing a bunch of new initiatives around design education and community! @10kdesigners

Hard to keep track of – my side hustles have side hustles.

Quick thread to document what’s happening right now 👇🏻

It all started around 2 years back with the ABNUX YouTube channel.

This is the best place to start if you want a crash course in what UI/UX design is all about!

Oh and we just hit 10k subscribers this week ☺️

However, wanted to go beyond just one person sharing their stories.

That’s when @mayankk98 and I started a new channel, @WhiteboardFM to have design conversations.

Just wrapped up season 2, have some new stuff coming soon.

Started @uisources about 2y back to document interactions & flows from well designed apps.

All this design inspiration was cluttering my camera roll, so set it up using Webflow CMS.

Recently switched to a subscription model, have 100+ paying customers

The first prototype of a community was the Telegram group. Active to this day, with ~2.3k members!

However, as the size of a community increases quality can suffer. We have 100-400 messages a day, hard to participate

Coined the name #10kdesigners during the YouTube days as an aspirational goal. Enabling the next 10,000 self taught designers!

Now that I’m doing this full time, @10kdesigners is the parent company that houses these products

Two products I’m experimenting with right now: Community & Masterclass

The @10kdesigners Community is a paid, private community to get design guidance and feedback. Creating weekly private videos + doing occasional live streams here.

Masterclass is an intensive product design program, currently about halfway through the first cohort!

There’s also a bunch of projects that didn’t work out / are shelved for now.

Includes newsletters, content initiatives, a micro learning site etc

Linked thread: what monthly content production from @10kdesigners looks like

Also experimenting with short IGTV videos this month!
