From Designer to Strategist: Building Creative Careers in the Age of AI


Listen Later

How do you future-proof your creative career when AI is disrupting everything?

 

In this episode of Marketing Mindset, I sit down with Farooq Umer, Brighter Click’s very own lead designer turned creative strategist, to break down his journey from executional design work to owning performance strategy.


We talk about:

  • Why most designers never see the data, and how that’s holding them back
  • The skills that actually matter when shifting into strategy roles
  • How learning copywriting and influencer management changed Umer’s career trajectory
  • Why AI won’t replace you if you evolve faster than it does


Whether you're a designer, copywriter, or performance marketer, this episode is a blueprint for turning curiosity and grit into a thriving creative career.
