March 30 cohort — who it's for (and who it's not)

Mar 27, 2026 8:01 am

March 30 cohort starts in 3 days.


Before you DM me — let me save you time.


This is for you if:


You have 5-20+ years of design experience. You've led work. Shipped products. Made real decisions. The portfolio is strong — the system you're using to get it seen isn't.


You've been searching for more than a few weeks and the usual approach (apply, wait, hear nothing) isn't working at your level.


You're willing to do the work — reposition, rebuild outreach, have uncomfortable conversations with decision-makers instead of hoping the job board delivers.


A designer came in last month with an 11-page resume. 20+ years of experience. Every page looked roughly the same. Keywords. Tool names. Task descriptions. We picked one project and rebuilt it on a call. 45 minutes later he had a full transformation narrative with real numbers and real scale. His face changed when he saw the before and after.


That's what "doing the work" looks like. One session. One project. Completely different signal.


This is not for you if:


You're early career (under 3-4 years). The Backdoor is built for a specific wall that shows up later.


You want someone to hand you a job. This isn't a placement service. It's a system and a coach. You do the work. I make sure it's the right work.


You're looking for a quick fix. 8 weeks is fast — but it requires showing up.


If the first list described you — DM me BACKDOOR.


If the second list described you — no hard feelings. The free tools are yours to keep.


March 30 start. Small group. Monthly intake.


DM me BACKDOOR on LinkedIn. Two questions. 3 minutes. Private.


Or email [email protected] — same two questions.
