Okay, my X feed is actually flooded with panic about the @framer 3.0, but I genuinely think this is good for people like us. Let me clear this up a bit.
@framer marketplace changes did make me worry. Is this bad for me? Will it get cluttered with bad work? What will the future look like? Everything was messing with my head.
Then I researched. I read what others were saying. And I landed on this. And this is actually simple:
Show up with your work. Pick a niche and actually go deep on it. Think from the buyer's perspective, show them how it works, and show them its value. Treat your template as a product, period.
I'm certain about all of this because my templates were never on the popular list. Never trending. And I still got lots of sales. I got custom projects. The marketplace wasn't doing the work for me. I was.
So I think this update is a new opportunity to do something big. Maybe it'll drown at some time, who knows. But I think if you adapt to the whole thing and work with it, it might actually work.
Who knows. Maybe you'll start getting bigger results from this than I ever did before. Time will tell.
