Bullshit! it’s wild seeing this kind of backward thinking same with Nigerian police. My first car in 2019 came from graphic design money, and that same income helped me relocate. This field can do a lot more if you approach it right. One mistake a lot of you make is….
“Show me one graphic designer in Nigeria that has a car and got the car from graphic designing and not teaching. I dealt with UK, Haiti, Dominican Republic, US clients and none paid me ₦1 million for a logo.” — Man says.

not just “a graphic designer.” Move away from those regular small flyer gigs and start sending proposals to real companies. You can even add print services without owning any machines, just partner with a printing company and take your cut.

Think bigger and position yourself better. That’s where the real opportunities are.

Maybe use this same energy on the jobs you already have, not pitching yourself to celebrities who clearly have a designer or design teams. He’s not obligated to accept or acknowledge your proposal.
I pitched these to him last year by the way. I quoted him and hundreds of people tagged him to the post but he did as if he didn't see it. See what he's settling for today, zoom into the faces of the kids by the right, in fact zoom into every angle of the image he settled for 🤦

You can see the pattern with those choosing to join PayPal, most of them only started freelancing after COVID, so they can’t really relate to the struggles freelancers faced back when the dollar was still ₦200. They simply don’t have that context.
It’s okay if you want to boycott PayPal and Paga. But trying to recruit other people, that’s absolute witchcraft. Some of us need this partnership for many reasons.

I bet if they’ve never lost even $1 to PayPal, or had to deal with PayPal middlemen telling you account is locked or forcing their own exchange rate because you don’t have any choice. You came into freelancing when things were already easier so you don’t have any clue.

This day last year, I left my house employed and returned unemployed. According to my employer, I was laid off for being “not suitable for this role.” But deep down, I knew that wasn’t the case. The whole saga started after I asked about visa sponsorship. (1)

Have you ever noticed how the best advertisements are more than just visuals? Take Uber’s “Your driver is 4 minutes away” Sheffield Ad, strategically placed at bus stop stands. The placement isn’t random…

It speaks directly to people already waiting, often frustrated by delays, uncertainty of bus times and the funny weather. At that exact moment, Uber positions itself as the smarter, faster alternative.

From a designer's perspective, this works because: (1) It meets users where the pain point happens. (2) Solves the frustration of waiting. (3) Bold, clear, and easy to digest in seconds. (4) Urgency convenience creates a powerful nudge to act.

Finally, I owe thanks to my wife for holding our family together. During this difficult period, she passed her driving test, completed NVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care, and the Pearson English exam, all while working two jobs. She carried a heavy load but didn’t break. (27)

Thanks also to my sister, who called constantly, supported financially, and ensured I wasn’t drowning in thoughts. To my business partner, Simon for his encouragement and prayers. And to my friends- Mayowa, @OBA_EVENTS_FOOD , and Wale for always checking if I was okay. (Final)

I know 3 people who have experienced a similar situation to mine due to visa sponsorship requirements and eventually got laid off or frustrated to resign willingly. If you ever notice signs of being pushed out because of visa sponsorship issues, please start looking for job (26)

This thread isn’t a pity story, it’s about sharing what I’ve been through in the last 12 months. Do I feel happy now? Yes. Do I still feel hurt? Absolutely. I’m sharing this because I want to heal, and maybe my story can help others. (24)

We have our business now and currently working on our third project for a University here in the UK. I also got my Sheffield taxi license in July and things are getting better. I get to meet different people, drive to different places within and outside Sheffield.
