"One of the few places where the things I learned actually stuck."

UX courses can feel rigid and inflexible.

BFM+ is designed to actually be digestible.

Breaking: you don't get a certificate after completing our UX Bootcamp.

P.S., you won't need one. Instead you might actually learn something.

This is how Google encourage you to leave more reviews. 👇👇

It's amazingly simple actually.

Before rating new places, Google will dynamically remind you how influential your previous reviews have been.

You follow your competitors on BFM, and when they ship some new UX magic, you'll get an alert. 🫨

It'll surprise nobody that the most followed company, from users all over the world, was instantly Monzo.

The 2nd most followed were Lovable.

3rd was Revolut.

I hired 40,000 people, from all over the world, to alert me if my competitors ship some UX magic. 🏝

It costs me less than £2 a week.

P.S., I still use Windows XP.

One day I'm going to do a UX teardown of every self service checkout, and then retire.

If you right click on Clay's logo, they'll make it easy to download their brand assets.

i.e., fewer poorly photoshopped PNGs, so their brand looks better everywhere.
