We spy: “The Shameless Behance Guide”

We know we have some great Behance “agents” out there letting other creatives know about Behance, but this member may take the cake. Here’s a guide, “The Behance Shameless Guide,” that he created for his fellow students (and professors) in the UK to teach them how to use Behance to get a site up there that will get noticed.

A few choice quotes to give you a preview of what he covers:

  • “By being part of Behance you really are putting yourself in a global creative circle.”
  • “Uploading projects is so easy, a 5 year old could do it.”
  • “If your project cover doesn’t look interesting, nobody is going to view your work.”
  • “Eventually, you’ll have a breakthrough and your project will take off. This is a project I made that, because of Behance, is now on 20 websites and got me countless work.”
  • Think twice about what location to list: “Prospective clients will be looking in geographical locations to hunt out designers”

    I love the tips but I feel like I’m in a black hole.

    Is there a way to invite others to view your work before they follow you?
    I guess I just did.

    Please follow me, if you’d like.
    (looks off camera and asks “is that proper enough?”)

    thanks peeps,
