    "Explain Ideas Visually Course & Community is honestly one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. The course covered many topics that I didn’t know much about, from the tools and design techniques to creating compelling visuals that resonate with a large audience. There is also an active community that provides support. Overall, I feel I underpaid for the value I got."

Hi, I'm Janis!

I was an aspiring content creator for years. I tried youtube, podcasting, and blogging, but all of it felt like an uphill battle.

Then I stumbled upon the idea of communicating through visuals. I loved it and pursued it seriously. Six months later, I felt momentum and left my corporate job.

Now, millions have seen my visuals, I have an audience of 170,000+, and I've collaborated with individuals I only ever dreamed of working with:

  • Julian Shapiro

    Investor, entrepreneur

  • Dharmesh Shah

    Co-founder/CTO, HubSpot

  • Matt D'Avella

    Netflix filmmaker, YouTuber

  • Steven Bartlett

    Entrepreneur, podcaster

  • Shaan Puri

    Host of My First Million

  • Naval Ravikant

    Investor, entrepreneur

  • Ana Lorena Fabrega

    Author, edupreneur

People kept asking me how I do what I do, so I created this course and community to share what I know about explaining ideas visually.

I look forward to seeing what you'll create and providing feedback on your visuals.

FAQ

FAQ

FAQ

Is this course only for content creators?

No, it isn't. You will learn how to effectively explain ideas visually. Similar to writing, this is a versatile skill that you can apply in almost any field or context.

Is it guaranteed I will get freelance work?

It's not guaranteed, but students who create consistently, iterate on feedback, and build audiences online are more likely to get freelance opportunities.

How long is the course, and what format is it in?

You'll learn the core material in roughly 2-3 hours. Then you can start creating, ask for feedback, and dive into bonus content if needed. Most of the lessons are videos where I talk over concepts or explain things while designing.

Do I need paid software?

No. I use the free version of Figma, and most of the behind-the-scenes work is done in this software. However, the principles you'll learn can be applied to any design software of your preference.

Do I get lifetime access?

Yes, you do. If the course is ever discontinued, all available content will be sent to you for download. The community and feedback sessions may end at some point in the future, but if that happens, you will be notified several months in advance.
