    Thank you Chris for the long and short form content you provide. Your professional advise, personal accounts, and just over all views on life have helped and inspired me in so many ways. You are just awesome. Just watched “Why You Should Start A Podcast To Grow Your Audience” over on “thefutur” YouTube channel and immediately came over here to drop a review like you asked. Again you and your team are just awesome and an asset to us as a whole. ❤️

    Inspired!
    I have been following Chris Do for ages now. The content he shares is inspiring, actionable and somehow free. Crazy! I highly recommend listening and following Master Do and his colleagues, especially if you run a business, and not just a business in the creative world.
  • Escobingrafo
    Here… one of those who follow since 2014
    I’m listen this podcast not as often as I could but whe I really find it necessary and it always reconnect with me, with what I really like and what I want to change. I’m still not an entrepreneur and I’m not sure if I ever will, but I absorb si much of the info. And discussion you guys have that moats of the times it resonates to me so well that I love it. Thank you! This small capsule are really good for starting the day and pump it with the clear perspective. We love the discussion for those time when you need more time. Heheh 🫶🏻

    Absolutely MUST for any creative or business professional
    Full disclosure, if Chris Do would open a church tomorrow, I’ll be the first one in line 😆🤩 After discovering this amazing human, I can’t get enough of his content since 2019. He changed the way I look at myself as a business owner, how I run my creative agency, how we talk to clients, how we find clients, how we make a sales call, how we start the creative process, how we increase the prices, look for better clients, improve operations, how we negotiate, brand ourselves, navigate conflicts and difficult conversations. There isn’t one single episode I haven’t listened to at least once. After being in this industry for a while, I see influencers who come, create for a few years, cash out, and either get burned out or so monetized that they lose me or get lost. Chris is the only one I know and heard of who’s in it for something bigger than all of us. He’s a true teacher who cares so deeply about helping others without asking for anything in return. Even my kids know and recognize his name and voice 😆 Thank you Chris from the bottom of my creative heart for everything you’ve done for me, for the community, and for those lost souls that somehow never heard of you. Please never stop! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    Inspiring with great interviews
    The Futur with Chris Do is one of my favorite podcasts. The show is full of insightful, inspirational, and thought-provoking knowledge. The guests are top-notch, providing valuable perspectives. As a graphic designer, I love to listen and learn from the content, even though I'm not a business owner. Chris, you're doing a fantastic job in this space. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and inspiring us to be the best we can be.

    10/10 will listen again
    How can one man (Chris) consistently drop so much knowledge?! Chris Is a gift of our time. And his guests are rock solid too! I always end my listening session inspired, motivated, and educated. No matter what your into or trying to build (if anything,) I think everyone can apply the critical thinking skills and overall mind expansion you’ll get from his podcasts to any venture. 10/10

    Invaluable in so many ways
    We never stop learning, and I can’t think of anyone who is sharing this level of information so honestly and transparently. I’ve been in the industry for 30 years and I am so grateful for this podcast. I’ve learned a great deal. Thank you.

    Like None Other
    Of the rare breeds in the world and Chris is one and knows how to spot the species. Every guest is it’s own riveting Masterclass without the upper crustiness or trying too hard. Over the years my appreciation for Chris, his team, social media and unselfish interest in helping us all to be and get better deepens. #mindblown by Ayman Al-Abdullah, Daniel Priestly and Jonathan Stark!! Thank you all for setting the bar so strong and high.
  • Keepin It Real Diehl
    The Best Interviewer
    After having been a guest on this show (episode 174) and having Chris as a guest on my show, I can vouch that he IS the real deal. His interview questions are so thought provoking, and his answers to my questions were some of the most tangible. This podcast is packed with takeaways and is a must listen! - Erin Diehl, Host of the improve it! podcast
  • Kendralebo
    Every designer should listen to this podcast
    I can’t stress enough how essential this podcast is for designers just starting out in their careers, as well as veterans who are starting or revamping their businesses. From business basics, to human psychology to sales, to building confidence as a designer, this is an amazing free resource!

    Come off like a pyramid scheme
    Always trying to sell something I cant watch because it feels exactly like every infomercial I have ever watched.

    Generally speaking, this is an excellent podcast, and I’m not a graphic designer nor do I play / work in the same type of industry that is mostly discussed here (outside of podcast creation & production as a side project). There’s a ton of wisdom that can be derived from these shows. Regarding the Kevin Finn show specifically, I’ve now listened to this episode twice today since it offers so much life wisdom! Thank You 🙏
  • designerdavid1

    Poser
    This show has an interesting selection of guests but I couldn’t get past all the personality mugging by the host. The NFT episode was clearly a pump and dump, no buyer beware.

But what’s also great is the fact that every guest has so much value to share. It’s incredible to know that you can click on almost any random episode and walk away better for it.
