Hi, I'm Faizur—designer making +$100,000 a year working with clients I love. I help designers build profitable freelance businesses teaching them about efficient design, pricing strategies and building systems that scale.

Hi, I'm faizur—I grew up in India's smallest city.

As a teenager, I worked at a mobile repair shop. That’s where I first found my love for design. I played around with Photoshop 7.0 on the shop floor because we didn’t have a computer at home.

By 16, I landed my first real design job, earning $200 a month.

I spent the next few years at big companies. I built products worth half a billion dollars, but I only made $500 a month. I couldn't afford the things I was building, which didn't make sense.

So, I started freelancing in 2016, and my income surged. In 2018, I quit my job, but soon realised I had traded one problem for another. The "hustle" turned into anxiety and panic attacks, and I had to walk away.

I tried going back to a regular job. I helped companies with design and led teams. Together, we raised millions in funding. But deep down, I knew I couldn't go back to the 9-to-5 forever.

I felt I had to start again, but this time, on my own terms. That was the day I stopped asking for permission.

I believe you already have what it takes—the talent, the skills. You just need someone to show you the path. When I started, nobody was there. That's why I'm here for you.

It took me 12 months to figure out how to turn my design skills into a real business. I went from $0 to six figures in one year, all by myself.

Since then, I’ve helped more than 50 clients create products that bring in capital. Brands like Podcastle, Clockout, and Vinita are examples.

Now, I'm on a mission to help 10,000 designers build a one-person business and live life on their own terms. 5,000 people have already joined my letter—you should too.
